[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 210245, member: 195"] Actually, there's not even a viable scientific theory anymore. The latest theory, represented in most textbooks, is the modern synthesis or neo-Darwinism. Every aspect of that theory has faced sufficient challenges from the empirical data to lead experts in the various fields to assert the need for a new theory. [USER=2468]@BuzzStone[/USER] asserts as fact that humans and chimps evolved from the same ancestor. However, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to compare how many years ago that branch occurred to how many years it would take for the genetic changes to occur through random variations. I also suspect that he won't be citing any scientific data demonstrating the origin of the orphan genes which are present in the human but not in other primates. [/QUOTE]
