Before heading to work every morning, I turn on the TV to watch CNN's American Morning to get the latest news. This morning, I heard the most interesting news ever! The "Missing Link" is found!!!
A discovery of a 47 million-year-old fossil primate that is said to be a human ancestor was announced and unveiled Tuesday at a press conference in New York City.Known as "Ida," the nearly complete transitional fossil is 20 times older than most fossils that provide evidence for human evolution.
It shows characteristics from the very primitive non-human evolutionary line (prosimians, such as lemurs), but is more related to the human evolutionary line (anthropoids, such as monkeys, apes and humans), said Norwegian paleontologist Jørn Hurum of the University of Oslo Natural History Museum. However, she is not really an anthropoid either, he said.
I have long been trying to find convincing proof of evolution. On one hand, the Quran says "We created man of the best stature," but then you think about the Neanderthal human and read the possibilities that he was not created in the "best stature."
I was leaning more to religion on that issue, but science has been proving several things that religion is not quite clear about.
