Source?

http://humanorigins.si.edu/evidence/human-fossils/species/australopithecus-africanus

you did not even put a source for your claim that it was related

Australopithecus, (Latin: “southern ape”) (genus Australopithecus), group of extinct primates closely related to, if not actually ancestors of, modern human beings and known from a series of fossils found at numerous sites in eastern,

https://www.britannica.com/topic/Australopithecus

and was thought to have been a direct ancestor of modern humans. (key word is THOUGHT"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australopithecus_africanus

Thought for a reason moron

It says in the article

you said evidence

That I sent

you said WE KNOW

where is the evidence? a hunch is not evidence

Viable ancestor of the genus homo. Basically the scientists agree he's mostly our ancestor or similar to them

fucking idiot

It isn't a hunch.

seriously you can not back up your argument so you resort to "moron" "idiot"

then PROVE IT

Mr. Eternal AngloToday at 8:00 PM
I.e. there is evidence
To support that conclusion

WHERE?

Your own source says that it is most likely

just post it

SCOURCE plz

MOST LIKELY not definitively proven

I sent a link which talks a bit about it. Think for a second: why would it be believed if there wasn't any evidence?

I'll find more evidence if you insist

people believe a lot of things

Sure, but well educated scientists?

more? how about any?

Definitely proven is basically non-existent in science. It's always about what's most likely the case and the most likely scenario. It's all hypothesis and theory. That's how the method works

there is electric universe theory, there is string theory, scientists disagree on many things

Theories are just that: theories

They are not proven

So they cannot be taken as facts

Like your own Smithsonian source says viable ancestor for the genus homo

Or should not be

I don't know if any evidence exists that we will all be satisfied with, since none of us have any expertise in this area

scientific method. you do have to prove and others test and peer review. you perform experiments and so on

I would rather believe a theologian on the history of the Earth than a modern day materialist liberal scientist

i would rather believe the actual science

which does not support evolution
