No, they didn't. Nice and glib statement, but there's almost four hundred million years between those two things. Reasoning backwards and pretending it's a straight line from A to B is kinda ridiculous: _all land-based non-arthropod animals_ went from "basically this" to whatever they are today. You want to talk about homo sapiens, you're gonna have to stop at hominoids. Anything before that and it's meaningless commentary.

- hungryforcodes 4y agoI upvoted you -- saw the joke :)
