My favorite evo “missing link” story so far has been the finding of a tooth that led to the museum depiction of this ape-man’s “family life” in a display.

gee, big surprise, more ‘hand-waving- and ‘just-so’ stories from the big Lie.....
even that dunce, darwin, would have to laff at how far they go today to prop up his original failed ideas of the religion of evolutionism.

Research shows that men notice nude images. Advertising strategies have made extensive use of the observation that erotic, suggestive and nude female models have a particularly strong attention-getting impact among male consumers.3 Though Ardi is not presented in an erotic or suggestive posture, she is certainly nude. What better way to attract attention than to portray Ardi with overt human female characteristics? Maybe they should have named the fossil Titsenass rather than Ardi.

Yeah, craaaaaaazy that she is depicted nude. She should have just gone to the closest Gap or J Crew for for the latest Paleolithic fashion.

Ardi’s going to do a remake of the movie classic, “The Three Faces of Eve”, but this go round, “The Dirty Dozen” gets worked in to the song, “I Ain't Got No Body” but will as soon as one is imagined for her/them.
But the book deals better be inked in a hurry because a big new find, possibly new species, it on the way from China and it isn't a new receipe for Peking Duck.

In the posted portion of this article, there are several intentional misstatements.
1. Ardi does not replace Lucy but is a likely ancestor to her as well as to later hominids.
2. Ardi was most likely female, this was not a choice of the artist or the "evolutionist conspiracy".
3. The artist was constrained by the fossils recovered both in terms of size and facial construction. Also, the reconstruction was of one individual fossil. The small canine tooth gives the face a distinctly different look than a chimp. The upright posture is determined for the fossil as well. Ardi was bipedal.
Normally I don't allow distractions while worshiping at my home temple to Darwin, but this article started out with just too much intentional BS.
