They are correct though. There is no evidence that chimps walked out of Africa. For two reasons:
-
They can’t walk for that length of time because we’re the ones who walk everywhere, they hang out in trees.
-
No one ever said they did.
I’m wondering if this person has ever even seen a chimp, to be honest.
They think scientific advancements are always made by a single person and occur in a vacuum. They learn that Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone and equate that to Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, but the way they see it Bells science is self evident because well phones work so his science must be right. With more abstract discoveries that don’t produce an object in the physical world they believe they can deny all day.
It’s really fucking stupid
Bell didn’t actually invent it (Elisha Gray did), but that aside, They didn’t work in a vacuum either. The telephone wouldn’t exist without all the discoveries before it. Including the abstract ideas that were necessary for basic electrical devices to be constructed. And Darwin wouldn’t have come up with his theory if it wasn’t for his grandfather Erasmus and Jean-Baptist Lamarck.
They’re just wrong about how science works period.
