The source was Eugene McCarthy from macroevolution.net. I took the time to analyze, weigh, summarize, and find a place to publish it. Physorg took it at face value from me, and published it.

Physorg took it at face value from me, and published it. Well, now I understand why you seem personally offended by the call to weigh the evidence, which includes weighing the evidence that submissions from PhysOrg often have the Bozo bit turned on. The previous discussion in this thread already linked to a much better write-up on the substance of the issue http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2013/07/02/the-mfap-hypothesis-for-the-origins-of-homo-sapiens/ http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2013/07/02/the-mfap-h... by a developmental biologist who understands and explains why this speculative hypothesis makes no sense. Read up more about biology before summarizing next time.

  I'll let physorg handle themselves on that. I am sure you know more about their content history here on HN then me. Either way, your "crap submission" comment was to me so I responded, as you no doubt would yourself to a similar attack. You will be seeing a lot more science from me on physorg, and elsewhere, since I just got started http://hewitt123.com/blog/?page_id=45 http://hewitt123.com/blog/?page_id=45 Blocking it hurts your community here a heck of lot more than than me, so chill out and tune in. Pharngula made a nice composition, did his post start this thread? If he was honest he would have said what I did, biology and genetics can't prove or disprove this right now, and that is among the reasons I raised it for intelligent discussion in the first place. Until we can watch, and sufficiently understand, chromosomal translocations, pairings, matching, splittings etc. during meiosis/recombination, criticism from ignorance best shut up and learn something. Professional scientists calling this guy an idiot, or pig, or saying, like pharygula, that this guys pants are probably full of semen, are those that you would be better served in blocking to improve this forum. Pharygula calls for an experimental cross between a human and swine, that's not even what was proposed here as an explanation of human origins.
