I’m not going to waste much time on this, because what she’s saying isn’t what you said it was, I merely posted a link to a page describing and giving examples of it.

I'm not going to waste a lot of time on this because you already confirmed the fallacy I identified by the information you snipped out.

Note your excerpt, "Over time, Shipman explains, the volume of information about animals increased... benefits of communicating this knowledge to others increased.. and communicating information through symbols."

Versus the actual article, "Over time, Shipman explains, the volume of information about animals increased, the evolutionary benefits of communicating this knowledge to others increased, and language evolved as an external means of handling and communicating information through symbols."

You simply snipped out the offending sections which clearly demonstrated the presence of the fallacy of petitio principii.
