[[Wow, this claim is still being used? I would have thought that this claim would have died when it was discovered that Neandertal semicircular canals were also very small, and probably more similar to those of Australopithecines than those of modern humans.]]
Hmmm- first you say Aldi is ‘more ismilar to humans’, then you turn aroudn and state it’s more similar to Australopithecines than to humans-

—Im not sure what you mean. Ardi shows that Ardipithecus is more human-like than we expected 4.4 million year old hominins to be.
The section you responded to is not at all related to Ardi. I was explaining that the semicircular canals of Neandertals are very small, similar to that of Australopithecines (which Creationists sometimes argue didnt walk upright to due having small semicircular canals).
