I was starting to think you have become a normal person and could
carry on a conversation without insults, I find I'm mistaken.

The lineage of many species has been studies through the inspection of mitochondrial DNA:

Just for background, it's a technique used in the broader science of phylogenetics:

(One interesting thing to note is that one of our closest cousins is the slime mold! Check the chart 😉)
I'll attempt to look at it.

Well, do you believe in phylogenetics?
I think it is too scientific for you to believe in.
Am I right?

"I was starting to think you have become a normal person"
Isn't this an insulting remark? Please...

I am the one that is normal, between you and me. I believe in evolution as a good science, you don't. You are the anti-science of the two of us, hence "un-normal"...

You are the one who thinks that if someone disagrees with you they
have something wrong with them, I don't make such claims.

You disagree with mostly all of people. But that maybe has to do with that you frequent the Science Forum as an anti-science approach.

Let me remind you: "I was starting to think you have become a normal person", why? Because you thought I started to agree with you, and you suddenly realized that I didn't?

You are an anti-science creationist in the Science Forum, what do you expect? Go to the forum where you belong - the Spiritual Forum. There you can preach your anti-science creationist twisted ideas.

Well, do you believe in phylogenetics?

It's really quite fascinating, I think you'll get a kick out of it.

No I don't think you were a normal person because you agreed with
me, agreeing with me isn't how that is judged. You were not spewing
brain dead accusation during conversation, accusing me of things and
not following the topic. We can disagree and not be disagreeable, but
typically the only thing you ever say is how anti-science I am, or some
other nonsense. I get a long quite famously with several people on
this board that I hardly ever agree with, yet I find them pleasant
individuals nonetheless, others our conversations can get stained, yet
we attempt not to cross a line with each other and when we do we
typically offer apologies for the mis-steps. You basically don’t even
attempt any degree of civility more times than not, go back and look
at our conversations you basically only say the same time over and
over add nauseam.

This is not christian compassion. This is words spewing sulphur from hell. I think you just now showing your real face.

We all know that you are anti-science. You know nothing about science, yet you think you know more than scientists. And as a paradox you just looove being in the Science Forum, preaching your gospel of creationism (satan laughs), trying to persuade people to agree with your twisted ideas.

If you debating in Spiritual Forum, then I wouldn't mind, but anti-science people doesn't have much credibility in Science Forum.

My interest in your words is solely of my interest of retorics by people from marginal groups. Your ideas have no value, but I like to study your arguments. I learn a lot from it. So please continue, but do it in Spirituality Forum.

I post where I will, and as I have pointed out, I do not bring my faith
up as a subject here, others drag it in.

Creationism is your faith. Science is not.

Bring your faith in anti-science creationism into the Spiritual Forum, not in Science Forum. Creationism is not Science. Have I ever critisized your faith in Spiritual Forum?

That is almost the full content of every conversation you and I have
ever had with respect to your side of the discussions.

If you are not bringing in your faith, what are you bringing in here? Surely you can't think you are bringing science? If you bring science, you need counter evidential arguments not skepticism.
Anyone can be a skeptic but to get beyond mere grousing, you need evidence.

I bring my skepticism yes, you are on the band wagon that only a
select few should be able to discuss matters such as the beginning
of all things, or evolution? I have been giving reasons for my
skepticism the evidence for it is the same evidence you have to
support it, we just look at it differently.

ok, fair enough, but what is the fundamental basis for your skepticism?
