Scientist Says Chimps Mated With Pigs to Produce Humans (Not a Satire)
Does this world-famous genetics wallah not know that yes, you can breed animals that are closely related–a horse and a donkey, for instance–and get offspring that can’t reproduce. But a chimpanzee and a pig? No, that’s impossible. And as an “explanation” of how the human race came to be, it’s all wet.
If this is what we’re getting from our Science, then we need new science and new scientists who aren’t nincompoops. I wonder how had it is to find those.
