So homology is not always a predictor of relatedness between species. We have known that since bats were removed from their classification as birds. Looks like you learned from the 'Recap Frauds' thread. You create your own strawman & then say it's wrong. The specific point I was demonstrating was that talkdeceptions claim of "objectivity" in the trees is invalid. Until this is acknowledged, I don't think we need to divert the discussion. Now, genetics gives insight into relatedness that could not be seen through homology. There may even have been more than one common ancestor for the tree of life and those common ancestors interbred. Abandoning Darwin already?
