There is plenty enough uncertainty for anyone to maintain the fossil record is not convincing. The foundation of evolution is also very imaginitive. Have any of you helped the researcher that reckons Ardi is just another ape? May be he missed some bone diagrams and research. There is no point convincing a creationist. There is obviously more to it than your information. These researchers eagerly await your critique and advice.
Perhaps you can enlighten these credentialed researchers on their phylogeny discussions about birds.
Wiki origin of Birds.
Archaeopteryx has historically been considered the first bird, or
Urvogel. Although newer fossil discoveries eliminated the gap between theropods and
Archaeopteryx, as well as the gap between
Archaeopteryx and modern birds,
phylogenetic taxonomists, in keeping with tradition, almost always use
Archaeopteryx as a specifier to help define Aves.
[49][50] Aves has more rarely been defined as a
crown group consisting only of modern birds.
[31] Nearly all palaeontologists regard birds as
coelurosaurian theropod dinosaurs.
[14] Within Coelurosauria, multiple
cladistic analyses have found support for a
clade named
Maniraptora, consisting of
therizinosauroids,
oviraptorosaurs,
troodontids,
dromaeosaurids, and birds.
[32][33][51] Of these, dromaeosaurids and troodontids are usually united in the clade
Deinonychosauria, which is a
sister group to birds (together forming the node-clade
Eumaniraptora) within the stem-clade
Paraves.
[32][52]
Other studies have proposed alternative phylogenies in which certain groups of dinosaurs that are usually considered non-avian are suggested to have evolved from avian ancestors. For example, a 2002 analysis found oviraptorosaurs to be basal avians.
[53] Alvarezsaurids, known from
Asia and the
Americas, have been variously classified as
basal maniraptorans,
[32][33][54][55] paravians,
[51] the sister taxon of
ornithomimosaurs,
[56] as well as specialized early birds.
[57][58] The genus
Rahonavis, originally described as an early bird,
[59] has been identified as a non-avian dromaeosaurid in several studies.
[52][60] Dromaeosaurids and troodontids themselves have also been suggested to lie within Aves rather than just outside it.

H. habilis
Homo habilis lived from about 2.4 to 1.4
Ma.
Homo habilis, the first species of the genus
Homo, evolved in South and East Africa in the late
Pliocene or early
Pleistocene, 2.52 Ma, when it diverged from the Australopithecines.
Homo habilis had smaller molars and larger brains than the Australopithecines, and made tools from stone and perhaps animal bones. One of the first known hominids, it was nicknamed 'handy man' by its discoverer,
Louis Leakey due to its association with
stone tools. Some scientists have proposed moving this species out of
Homo and into
Australopithecus due to the morphology of its skeleton being more adapted to
living on trees rather than to
moving on two legs like
Homo sapiens.

I could go on and on. Some debates being more important than others. My point being researchers appear so unclear about so much that you should understand any creationists scepticism, as opposed to maintaining that the clarity of evidence within your fossil and genomic data is irrefutably solid.
Go give these researchers your evidence. They have obviously missed it!.
