Real science involves careful consideration of *ALL* of the evidence.

Real science consists in REJECTING
bad theories on the basis of the
evidence, and then seeing what is left.

Uh huh. And so . . .?

Your head is full of bad theories --
so obviously bad that any remotely
competent scientist would disregard
them. (Of course, that's also true of
the Savanna and Aquatic theorists.)

Each of the Savanna, the Aquatic, and
the Monsoon-Cities-in-the-Trees theories
can be rejected on the most obvious of
evidence.

Yeah, right.

What it comes down to, Paul, is that you have no evidence based
dispute with my hypothesis.

Name two closely-related species
that occupy different habitats.

Not only do you have no evidence based
dispute with the situational factors therein (onset of dry-season
monsoon climate, isolation of treed localities, tremendous competition
from food competitors, potential for collective predator siege/
massacres

Quite unknown in nature.

Current theory just assumes that cities emerged suddenly 8 thousand
years ago.

Sure. Standard PA has not yet absorbed
the notion of ice ages. For some very
peculiar reason, they ALL assume that
human ancestors lived on the tops of hills,
preferably when they were covered in ice.

It considers cities (and agriculture) as things that were
discovered at that time.

Of course, you are identical to the
standard PA dopes. Where do you
think all the cities were 13 kya?

What is left unexplained is the selective
origins of the behaviors and abilities necessary. The communal
selection of my hypothesis solves this riddle.

Nope. It doesn't. It also ignores every
significant fact in hominid evolution,
and in evolution generally


Paul.
