It's really just a version of Zeno's paradox, isn't it?

We have A (pre-human hominid) and we have B (human) and you want to know PRECISELY when we distinguish them?

My answer: I don't know.

What I do know is that the distinction between A and B is pretty clear, that I consider myself a member of category B, and that the demands of the Christian gospel apply to me without equivocation.

I trust God to sort out how, if at all, the requirements of the Gospel apply to those elsewhere on the evolutionary continuum.

Blessings,
Murray
