Attack of the Theocrats!
Muslims often claim that our criticisms if translations of Arabic are invalidated by us using translations, but sod them, I'm going to critique this translation. It says over and over that this proves Darwin wrong, but the whole argument is that Darwin said we're upgraded chimpanzees (WRONG!) and that Ardi looks a LITTLE different from what we expected and therefore it's all wrong. What these people don't understand is that the common ancestry model only implied certain features would PROBABLY be found in the ancestor. It's really not a very surprising fossil. But let's focus on what's realy important: EVERY fossil of something extinct proves change has occurred, disproving creationism MILLIONS of times.
