If your wife's baby is type o and yours and hers too, there is a 99% chance that that is your baby. It's called Mendelian theory. It's part of the most complex thing called evolution. Please don't throw evolution out of the window like a piece of rag that's of no use to anyone.

"the scientific explanation is "you do not understand how evolution works.""
Take that!

Excuse me "f dat"! You throw that word "gay" around too easily. What kind of response is that? If that is the most intelligent thing you can say in response to an article of this nature then go back to the bowling alley and drink a few more Schlitz beers and hopefully you'll end up a fossil sooner than later.

i highly suggest you read Richard Dawkins' new book, The Greatest Show on Earth.

"What is the modern scientific explanation for 'missing links'?"
We're finding them every day. Are you paying attention or working an agenda ?
And no we wouldn't be "tripping over them" - we'd have to dig them up - because nature and time stratify them under layers... but I'm sure you don't really care to hear the answer.

I've been taught that "our closest ancestors" are the hominids, which fist diverged "around 6 million years ago."
If the evolutionary process from our "earliest ancestors" to modern man took 6 MILLION years, shouldn't we literally be tripping over the fossil records?
Thus, my question is, "What is the modern scientific explanation for 'missing links'?"
