Example of how to read an evolutionary article:
"Talking with your hands may have begun with fish, according to research presented by Andrew Bass, Cornell professor of neurobiology and behavior, at the Society for Experimental Biology’s annual meeting July 3-6 in Valencia, Spain.The research offered evidence (IF there is "evidence" --then there is no "may have") that the evolutionary origins of the link between speech and gesturing can be traced to a developmental compartment in the caudal hindbrain of fish.
The majority of fish and tetrapods, including reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals, are all known to communicate acoustically. In a 2008 Science paper , Bass and colleagues provided evidence that brain networks instructing when muscles should contract - called patterning - for vocalizing in fishes, birds and mammals, and even primates, (What "evidence"? Keep reading) originate from the same compartment in the developing hindbrain.
This suggests that the vocal networks in all vertebrates evolved from an ancestrally shared brain area that originated in fish. (In other words, "SUGGESTS",--they see the same brain function for communicating acoustically & ASSUME, because their worldview holds that we evolved from fish who learned to walk on land, that it must have began in the brain of a fish. Of course there is another answer. Common Design-Hence a DESIGNER...GOD who created these creatures with a brain & the ability for acoustic communication.) " MyScience

| WE did NOT "Evolve" from fish |
And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:21,25
