I love your first link. The writer relies on a 1974 computer study, which he say is "recent," to claim that Austrolopithecus isn't related to other primates. But I thought the whole creationist schtick was that no animals are related to one another.

The article in the first link was written in 1975. So a 1974 study would have been recent. I posted that because of the information about the evidence for modern humans and Homo Erector being found below Austrolopithecus. Because that establishes that Austrolopithecus could not have been a human ancestor. Which even Leakey began to conclude.

Actually, the whole creationist stick is that they may be YOUR relatives, but they're not ours...

That's the evolutionist characterization of creationism.
