Yes, that's how they argue.
​
Yeah, I'm sure it sucks that all the evidence is on our side, and that there's so much of it... Lord forbid you be presented with some of it.

(don't pants made of Smarties melt in an unpleasant way?)
​
Unlike in Great Britain, which is a kind of Bizzaro-world Negativeland where up is down and black is white, in America, Smarties are a sour, sugar-based candy. Much akin to Sweettarts, if you have those.
​
(Just kidding about Great Britain. )
​
it's a discussion forum and the media is ill-suited to such long posts - as intelligent, well-argued and researched as they may be.
​
I think they have their place. But it is kind of disruptive when every response turns into a several-page missive because folks use a lot of line breaks and quote half-sentences at a time. (You know who you are.)

It has been shown pretty much by many scientists that the Australopithecines are not "half ape, half Human".
​
That would be sort of impossible, considering that humans are apes.
​
That's like asking for the organism that's "half mammal, half dog."
