I would like to make two comments on the historic discovery of the remains of another member of the hominid family of primates in South Africa.

Firstly no scientist or palaeontologist ever declared that our human body descended from the current great apes. What they say is that we had a common ancestor in the dim past and that we then evolved along different paths.

Secondly our human body is only a divine temple for an eternal spirit. Only the body dies and decays, not the divine spirit. Please therefore don’t be an ignoramus who associates him/her with the body and its evolvement over time.
