i am not an evolutionary geneticist....but to the best of my knowledge
there is no evidence of a common male ancestor.

i can only hope that you are not in a position to deny people like
mike funds or other support to do research in a field that is of the
utmost interest to scientists and the public alike.  there is (to the
best of my knowledge) not a single well controlled, randomly assigned,
experimental design that provides evidence for the theory that
second-hand smoke causes cancer.  true, that is an almost impossible
experiment to do.  that does not, however, mean that by default
everyone should agree that second-hand smoke causes cancer.  
and you would never work on my research team.  but i suspect that you
are not a scientist so that really isn't an issue for you, eh?
