This is so important to understand. These evolutionary theories are only speculation and cannot be proven. They often simply reflect a person’s bias or agenda rather than fact.

And . . . I would add . . . the need to receive funding to justify that one can make a living being an evolutionary biologist. Kinda reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George portrayed himself as a marine biologist in order to impress a love interest. Now, maybe I'm being too hard on evolutionary biologists, but nawww:
