Look LauraLee...you're wrong. Darwinism has long ago been shown to be pure mythology. It's only supporters are the phoney profs that use it as a vehicle for dumbing down the naive student population and applying for federal grants, AND gullible followers. Tell me, when's the last time you saw a half man-half ape OR a half man-half fish? You suggest: Tell the truth and people can decide. It seems to me people are deciding and the darwinist "groupies" view this independent thought as encroachment on their turf. Since they cannot bear detailed scrutiny, they make haste to silence the opposition.
Would you please explain how exactly we got to the point where it takes a male and a female (in hundreds of species throughout the animal world) to procreate? What exact steps did that take? And how did genitalia and reproductive organs and sperm and eggs get involved? Go ahead - use your imagination.
May unanswered questions about human evolution...you are right. But the latest genetic info appears to separate Neandertal from Homo sapiens, ie., no interbreeding. It seems that our ancestors wiped them out but didn't "date" them.
