Someone caught a wierd looking fish with human-like teeth the other day. Just wait- it's only a matter of time before a "hypothesis" develops of this previously unknown fish species being the missing link.

The fish was a well-known South American species related to the piranha called a pacu. Its teeth are an evolutionary adaptation for crushing seeds.

LMAO! It's teeth are an "evolutionary adaptation??" LMAO!!

A monkeys anus is an 'evolutionary adaptation" as well a monkeys fingers. They developed to fling feces at evolutionists.

BTW, the fish doesn't have molars, it has icisors, for tearing flesh, not "crushing seeds"

"Its teeth are an evolutionary adaptation for crushing seeds."

You have nothing but supposition to assert such.

A better statement would be: "Its teeth are presumably an evolutionary adaptation for crushing seeds."
