minus-squarekbin_space_program@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoIts amusing how the creationists have mostly stopped trying to attack “deep time” and instead really misuse science. Like that “finger”. Do they think early hominids didnt have fucking hands and fingers or something? That we were all snakes or clawed devils?

minus-squarekbin_space_program@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months agoYeah, but my point is, even if it is a finger, and thats a pretty massive if. And if its a soft tissue fossil from 3MYA. So what? It fits the overall shape of the end of a finger of any great ape. Sure, it would be a stupendous scientific find, but it couldn’t disprove evolution.
