Fossil gorilla teeth push back human evolution even further

Here is ad hoc, paradigm-driven, rationalistic science at its best: (paraphrase follows)Ã‚Â “We know that humans and gorillas had a common ancestor. This finding of an extremely early but largely modern gorillaÃ‚Â means that the ancestor must have beenÃ‚Â much earlier than we thought.” This, along with theÃ‚Â Egyptian footprints, ought to be telling a different story, it seems toÃ‚Â me. But, in order to see thatÃ‚Â story you have to adopt an empericalist view of science and be willing to run with the data rather than forcing the data into your paradigm.
