Are ERVs evidence for common ancestry

:popcorn: :slightly_smiling_face:

@Elliot_Mudd if you don’t know, you might want to find out how much we/scientists/humanity know about the function (or not) of ERVs, even the entire human genome and how that’s changed over the last few decades. You might be surprised as I was. Most here aren’t going to readily admit what we don’t know and what’s been believed to be true in the past.
