Sir David Attenborough explains the significance of the amazing new fossil primate 'Ida' and how she provides evidence of the link between humans and the rest of the animal kingdom. This incredible 47 million year old, 95% complete fossil primate has important implications for the understanding of human origins and our place within the natural world.

  • It's like arguing with a pigeon. You crap all over the board, knock over all the pieces, and then fly back to your nest to claim victory.

    I don't care what the Bible says. I've read enough to understand that it is a collection of books written by animal-sacrificing, slave-owning, genocidal bronze-age primitives.

  • Go Evolution!

    Look at the comments and you will see a very large conversation going in great detail about this find. Then you can see the context of this statement.

    If you're interested in the reality of this find, check out AronRa's video:

  • @somecomputergeek Listen to Attenborough's last comment, then go research how quickly the scientific community rejected this 20-30 year old find that happens to be brought out to commemorate the death of Darwin. Ida is old news because it is irrelevant already.

    Uh, looks like it's STILL missing. Like Lucy, a joke. If it has the skull of a lemur, the hands and feet of a lemur, the body ratio of a lemur, the forward facing eyes of a lemur and the tail of the lemur... is probably a lemur.

  • Another supposed missing link and failed prediction gone down the Darwinian drain. What a difference two years make.

  • Your video has 666 views because Evolutionary theory is Satanic in its origins. Evo theory shares a common origins with Satanism in the Sumerian culture. But now its going to have 667 views. My refutation of evolution videos skip from 665 to 667 views because they're not evil... they're "good" for you. They even cure baldness of the va-jay-jay. They bring back the beautiful look of 1980's Playboy centerfolds. View my video "Evolutions Transitional Species Don't Exist" and you'll see

  • @flyingscience

    You're right. My apologies.

  • @somecomputergeek You left out homo phobic flat earthers !

  • Homology doesn't "imply" evolution. Evolution EXPLAINS homology. There ARE homologous genes, and there ARE homologous structures. Just because there is not an direct relationship between homologous genes and structures (which can be explained by genetic drift) doesn't make the homology of either go away, and saying "Same genes, same designer" doesn't explain it:

  • You should really stick with homology... which IMPLIES evolution, right?

    Now I may not know much about evolution (except for homology), but you are way, way out of your league when it comes to the Bible!

  • Ahh, "the context". I can't wait to see what kind of context justifies the slaughter of thousands of children.
