Do you not see a problem where you declare that the fossil record provides "little or no evidence" and yet you (and you alone apparently) can use that record to make sweeping and ironclad proclamations about human evolution?

But let's get back to that chain of mothers. Seven million years worth. Common descent suggests the the woman on the other end of that line was a short, hairy ape-woman who may or may not have been bipedal.

What do you believe?
1. The woman on the other end of that line was a fully human woman, morphologically and genetically indistinguishable from modern humans.
2. The woman on the other end of that line was a short, hairy ape-woman, but at some point an ape-woman mother gave birth to a human daughter.
3. The line does not extend back 7 million years. At some point a human woman appeared who had no mother.

Other alternatives?

lol. Seriously dude, at this point you need to either admit you aren't smart enough to understand this or that you are being intellectually dishonest by being ignorant on purpose. Either way the outcome should be the same... stop posting!

Answer the question about the ring species (i.e. the "chain of mothers") I'm interested to see how you do with it.

True, I am trying to force the issue though. I think that you secretly know how poor your argument is but refuse to 'fess up publicly because it would require admitting that the Bible is bogus on a great many things.

Who knows though. Maybe you have convinced yourself because we refuse to participate in your "clever" theist dodging games.

#3 is an unacceptable response, when we have other, irrefutable examples of ring species.

If you mean other than human, maybe, maybe not. I don't care a lot. Show it for us.
