If evolution was proven false by this research, would you still cling to the evolution THEORY? If not, what would you believe in?

That's good for a pushup. What are we up to now?

It looks like you are one of those ever so intelligent creationists who are not capable of reading an entire article other than the headline.
Try taking a look at this exerpt from that article:
Susan Anton, a New York University anthropologist and co-author of the Leakey work, said she expects anti-evolution proponents to seize on the new research, but said it would be a mistake to try to use the new work to show flaws in evolution theory.
"This is not questioning the idea at all of evolution; it is refining some of the specific points," Anton said. "This is a great example of what science does and religion doesn't do. It's a continous self-testing process."

Evolution wasn't in any manner proven false by that research.Did you even bother to read it?Simply shows two ancestors lived side by side,instead of one after the other.I am quite positive the future will hold discoveries of still more hominid fossils,some will push certain dates back,some may change the actual lineage.Isn't science at its best,putting theology to shame,when scientists find new evidence and put it out for the world to see and review?Oh,that theists could be so ernest in their search for truth

Taken DIRECTLY FROM THE ARTICLE:
"Susan Anton, a New York University anthropologist and co-author of the Leakey work, said she expects anti-evolution proponents to seize on the new research, but said it would be a mistake to try to use the new work to show flaws in evolution theory."
"This is not questioning the idea at all of evolution; it is refining some of the specific points," Anton said. "This is a great example of what science does and religion doesn't do. It's a continous self-testing process."
Looks like she was right about the anti-evolution proponents.

Evolution has not been proven false. What has happened is that our understanding of how it works has changed.

Changing ones understanding with new evidence is called learning. Give it a try.

nothing can convince me that the eart was created in another way but by natural explanable events. im not saying god had nothing to do with it, but definately not in the way the creationist theory described it

Wow, the more we learn, the less we know.
I believe in the Biblical account of creation.
