It seems like you can hardly toss a stone anymore without hitting a “missing link” and yet it is still missing!
I don’t know why people who subscribe to this stuff bother to waste so much of their time on a “missing link” - it is not like they needed a “missing link” to begin with.
I think it all has to do with the fact that they would feel alot safer in their denial of Genesis if they could just find some substantial proof.
