Let's look at some odds, first, some numbers.
Genus:
Homo known variety: 25, living today, 1
Genus:

Canis known variety: 52~, living today, 10
Aquila known variety: 30, living today, 16
"The odd's" are defined (and work against evolutionary theory) in a number of ways.
Firstly, we have an eco-system that has produced a mammal that will survive in any other ecology on earth.
Secondly, the rate of mutation is sporadic - at one point there are as many as 4-5 phenotype's of the human genus existing around the world but ultimately (and relatively suddenly) being reduced to just one.
Thirdly, throughout the whole duration of this story - walking upright without the use of fists is never selected in another instance of ape ever again. (unless you believe in Big-Foot).
"The odd's" come with the understanding : there have been nothing but homo-sapiens and dwindling neanderthals on earth for the past 200 thousand years, it's like a meteor hit earth to wipe out every other variety of human genus besides us. Evolution does not produce only one champion, and it does not stop.
WITHOUT EVIDENCE of our having evolved aside alternative stable morphological competitors, through fossils of alternative phenotypes, there is in turn the ASSUMPTION that a slew of unlikely events occurred (like the rape and assimilation of neanderthals) most importantly to me among them: that we evolved away from our ancestral family at an accelerated rate - but we know that evolution does not work that way and there has been no other evidence / instance of evolutionary selection to the same extreme degree for as long as there have been apes at least! it is just simply not the case that we should have developed in the same fashion. We are more likely to have come from somewhere other then the process of evolution.
