No, ‘Ardi’ Isn’t The Missing Link, Either

World Magazine’s John Dawson reports on the research of a Texas A&M University paleontologist who, upon examining the bones of the most recent candidate for evolutionary theorists’ desperately sought missing link, concluded that it doesn’t fit:

“Scientists are rethinking a famous fossil often used to illustrate the Darwinian story that humans descended from apes. According to a team of researchers led by Texas A&M paleontologist Thomas Cody Prang, the hands and feet of the ancient extinct species known as Ardipithecus ramidus were more suited to a life swinging in trees than walking upright.

“Prang’s research into the fossil, known colloquially as Ardi, stands in stark contrast to original reports that hailed it as a candidate for the most recent common ancestor between humans and chimpanzees. The study is the latest to undermine the hopes of Darwinian scientists that they had found evidence of common descent.”
