WEEK 3 OUTLINE

Are They All Extinct?

To say that something doesn't exist is not scientific. You can't prove it.

In order to say that dinosaurs are extinct you would have to have a person on every point on the earth, and in the oceans, at the same time. They would all say "there's none here" at the same time. Then you would have your answer. There is more than enough evidence to say safely that dinosaurs are not extinct. The only reason to believe that dinosaurs are extinct is the THEORY of Evolution, not the facts of science.

New Zealand: In 1977, on April 10th, the Japanese fishing trawler Zuiyo Maru, caught a large, unmoving object in it's nets. The captain of the ship was a paleontologist.

He positively identified the creature as a Plesiosaur. That is not the amazing part-the creature had only been dead several weeks! 32 feet long, 4,000 lbs., the creature was thrown back in the sea after one flipper was removed, pictures taken, as well as measurements. The Japanese have an official stamp commemorating this event. The European and American evolutionists ignored the find, but the Americans, Russians and the Chinese governments immediately sent research ships to the area. IF they ever catch one alive, they may not release the discovery information at all.

The Japanese called it "The scientific discovery of the year".

One quote from the Scientist at the National Science Museum of Japan:"It seems that these animals are not extinct after all. It's impossible for only one to have survived. There must be a group." The skin is now known to be reptilian.

France: Feb. 8, 1856-Some workmen were digging a railway tunnel and using gunpowder. After an explosion, they brought out a huge boulder. When they cracked the boulder open, out came a huge bat-like animal. It was still alive! Coming into the light, it flapped it's wings and made a hoarse noise, then died. It was leathery, black, oily, and thick skinned with a long neck, and had rows of sharp teeth in it's"beak-like mouth". It's wingspan was measured at ten feet, seven inches. It had four legs joined by a membrane, talons instead of feet and had left it's imprint in the cavity of the boulder. The students of paleontology immediately identified it as a pterodactyl. A scientist was called in to examine it. He positively concluded it was a Pterosaur. The next day, February 9, The Illustrated London News had a report of this discovery on p. 166. This creature could have survived several thousand years inside the rock in a state of suspended animation, but not several million years.

Africa: The search is on for a large animal called by the natives "Mokele-Mbembe". As late as 1980 one native came to a missionary after just having seen a large, strange creature. The head was six to eight feet long, and "snake-like". The missionary later showed the native some dinosaur pictures,and the native positively identified it as a Sauropod. The native would have no way of knowing that dinosaurs are supposed to be extinct for 65 million years, without contact with an Evolutionary scientist. This obviously would not happen as most Evolutionary scientists do not go to the mission field to witness to African natives! Another sighting, about the same time, was by a young girl of the village. Caoneing home next to Lake Tele,the girl got stuck on a sand bar. Every time she went to remove the canoe, something would push the canoe back onto the sand bar. Then in a moment, there was a great noise and splashing. An animal broke the surface " the size of ten elephants". She could not move, from fright. Her parentslater came and got her. The tracks were still there, for hundreds of feet. The point is this: the natives don't think very much of these stories as they don't have a motive for making them up, and they don't have any reason to disbelieve them. They are not brainwashed into the evolutionary way of thinking as the only, and in many cases first, contact with the outside world is the missionary who has no desire to give them the theory of Evolution!

Ancient Egypt: "Herodotus, the famous Greek explorer, described small flying reptiles in Ancient Egypt and Arabia. These animals sound amazingly like Rhamphorynchus. They had the same snake-like body, and the bat-like wings. Many had been killed near the city of Buto(Arabia). He was shown a canyon with many piles of their backbones and ribs.

Herodotus said that these animals could sometimes be found in the spice groves. They were 'small in size and of various colors.' Large numbers would sometimes gather in the frankincense trees. Workers, when they wanted to gather the trees' valuable juices, would use smelly smoke to drive the flying reptiles away. The well-respected Greek, Aristotle said that, in his time, it was common knowledge that creatures like this also existed in Ethiopia. Similar animals (three feet long) were also described inIndia by the geographer Strabo."

Ireland: (900 A.D.)"An I rish writer recorded an encounter with a large beast with 'iron' nails on it's tail which pointed backwards. It's head was shaped a little bit like a horse's. And it had thick legs with strong claws. Those details match features of the dinosaurs like the Kentrosaurus and the Stegosaurus. They had sharp-pointed spines on their tails, thick legs, strong claws, and long skulls."

China: "Thousands of dragon stories and pictures can be found in ancient Chinese books and art. One interesting legend tells about a famous Chinese man named Yu. After the great world flood, Yu surveyed the land of China and divided it into two sections. He "built channels to drain the water off to sea" and helped make the land livable again. Many snakes and "dragons" were driven from the marshlands when Yu created the new farmlands. Some old Chinese books even tell of a family that kept "dragons" and raised the babies. In those days, Chinese kings used "dragons" for pulling royal chariots on special occasions."

France: "The city of Nerluc was renamed in honor of the "dragon" there. This animal was bigger than an oxe and hadlong, sharp pointed horns on it's head. There were a number of different horned dinosaurs. The Tricerotops is one example."

Europe:"A well known , old science book, the HISTORIA ANIMALIUM, claims that dragons were still not extinct in the 1500's. But the anmimals were said to be extremely rare and relatively small by then."

Italy: " A scientist named Ulysses Aldrovandus carefully described a creature seen on a road in Northern Italy. The date was May 13, 1572. The poor, rare creature was so little that a farmer killed it just by knocking it on the head with his walking stick. The animal had done nothing wrong except hiss at the farmer's oxen as they approached it on the road. The scientist got the dead body and made measurements and a drawing. He even had the animal mounted for a museum. It had a long neck, a very long tail, and a fat body. The skeletons of a number of ancient reptile-like creatures match this basic description."

Scandinavia: "One old legend describes a reptile-like animal that had a body about the size of a large cow. It's two back legs were long and str ong, but it's front legs are remarkably short. And it's jaws were quite large. One of the unique things about many dinosaurs was their short front legs, compared to their long, strong back legs. Many also had large jaws. Examples of dinosaurs which fit are the Edmontosaurus and Iguanodon, and Tyrannosaurus Rex, etc."

Babylon: "One 'dragon' story from the ancient land of Sumer in Babylon tells of the hero Gilgamesh. He decided to make a name for himself by traveling to a distant land to cut great cedar trees needed for his city. He reached the forest with fifty volunteers and discovered a huge reptile-likeanimal which ate trees and reeds. The story simply says that Gilgamesh killed it and cut off it's head for a trophy."

NOTE: Almost all ancient peoples had legends of dragons, even those who were on faraway, remote islands. They couldn't have had contact with each other, according to the theory of Evolution. This is way too coincidental to brush off. Any historian will tell you that there has to be some truth to any legends of the same type if they originate from various independent sources, as these do.

Conclusion: The people must have had visual sighting to describe them in such detail. Really, objectively the only reason to doubt these stories is the THEORY of Evolution, not the facts of science or history. Who knows? Maybe the writer of the popular television show The Flintstones was right-Fred could have had Dino for a pet!

The Bible speaks of God as the Creator of ALL creatures (the word creature is from Creator or Creation), including dinosaurs. In Genesis chapter one, the Hebrew word "tannin" is used to describe a certain creature. This word means "dragon". The fact that so many cultures have stories of dragons is proof that they must have seen them. There are just too many to brush off as myth. The people writing them left no indication that they intended them to be myths. At the end of the book of Job there are two great creatures described which, if taken literally, can only be dinosaurs. They are the Leviathan, and the Behemoth. Read the descriptions carefully and see if these are not some horribly, awesome creature.(JOB chaps.38-40).

There are other references- to large serpents, land animals, creeping things, etc. Noah most assuredly took the dinosaurs on the ark. The capacity of the ark was 3,600,000 cubic feet. That's three football fields long, three decks,more than enough space to not only hold all of the creatures, but room left over for each one to have it's own television set! Noah could have taken young ones of each type, or eggs.

The problem with fossils is that they don't describe what the whole animal looked like. Hair, fur, skin, fleshy knobs, ears, nostrils, muscles,etc. are not discernible. The paleontrologist has to make a guess as to what the creature looked like. They can be totally incorrect. The fossils do not come with a sign describing themselves either.

For instance, the brontosaurus does not exist. The head was never found. The head was used from another dinosaur found three to four miles away.The skeleton was from a type of Diplodocus, and the skull was from an Apatosaurus. The museums and textbooks carried this dinosaur for one hundred years. This is not scientific integrity at all, but the story gets much worse as we will see when we get to "humanoid" fossils.

The Bible says that all animals ate plants in the beginning. There is no reason, scientifically, to doubt this. The traditional view of Paleontologists has been that many nasty looking dinosaurs ate meat, such as Tyrannosaurus Rex. They simply do not know. The spider monkey of South America has very nasty canine teeth, yet it eats fruit. The Pre-Flood world is the only one that could have supported the size dinosaurs found in the fossil record.Uniformitarianism does not account for a way to feed an Ultrasaurus.If the "Present Is The Key To The Past" as they claim, then the present is nowhere near sufficient.Even elephants have a hard time today. Again, the fossil record shows that the earth, pole to pole, was lush and green (tropical).

NOTE:There are certain characteristics which are distinct between apes and humans.

HUMANS:	APES:
1. LARGE, "VAULTED" Cranium(1,350-1,450 c.c.) Range 1,000-2,000 c.c.*	1. Small cranium.(380-450 c.c.)
2. Dental arch is parabolic	2. Dental arch is "V" or "U"shaped.
3. No canine-incisor tooth gap.	3. "Canine to incisor" tooth gap. Jaws interlock.
4. Arms shorter than legs.	4. Arms, legs 100% same length.

12. All people have same ability to learn.(Brain size irrelevant).	12. Little capacity to learn new things.* An aboriginal woman was measured at 850 c.c.

THESE ARE ONLY THE PHYSICAL DIFFERENCES. THERE ARE GENETIC DIFFERENCES, DIFFERENCES IN BLOOD CHEMISTRY, AND OTHER INOBVIOUS AREAS.

Before beginning o ur study on the fossil evidence for man, called paleoanthropology, we need to learn something. First, the drawings which are found in the average textbooks are only artists reconstructions and do not have any fossils behind them to back them up. The models in the museums are plaster and there again are no fossils for these models. When a tooth is found, or a bone, that is all that they find. From this measly pickings, the artist has to reconstruct an entire human being. You, as the reader (or sucker) are given the impression that:

A) The fossils back up the drawing.

B) The artist really can tell what the creature looks like and that the picture is accurate.

This is not so at all. If the artist wants to portray a missing link type of creature-guess what he draws. This will in all cases have nothing whatsoever with what was actually discovered, as history bears witness.

The procedure goes something like this. First, the evolutionary paleoanthropologist will search for "The Missing Link". Next, finding a bone, skull, or bone fragments(the usual), he then concludes without further study that he has found the "Missing Link", and forwards the material to an artist.

The artist, also always an evolutionist, will draw what he "thinks" the creature is supposed to look like. His bias is automatically transferred to the drawing or sculpture.

The use of skull fragments to determine whether a fossil is a man or an ape is not reliable at all, since what is usually found is fragments and the capacity of the skull is almost never detectable. The very best way to tell is the jaw shape. This is almost foolproof because of the immense difference in shape, and teeth position. But, as always, caution should be taken, especially with fragments.

A distinction needs to be made between the two models here:

A) The evolutionary model always portrays man in the past as being primitive, ape like, dumb, smaller, not long living, and getting better(more advanced)all of the time. This is of necessity from the evolution model. This also goes against the second law of thermodynamics, but this has not ever stopped the evolutionist yet, as we have seen.

B) The Creation model says that man was more intelligent in the past, lived longer, was larger, had technology, and lost much of this after a worldwide hydraulic cataclysm. This is of necessity as this is from the Bible, mainly.

Remember, the model which fits the most facts with the least amount of contradictory fact is probably the correct one, even though neither model can be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. The conclusions for each model will still always have to be accepted by faith. SCIENTIFIC METHODS MUST ALWAYS BE USED ON EVERY MODEL AND IN EVERY INSTANCE TO DETERMINE THE VALIDITY OF THE MODEL, AND FACTS DISPROVING THE MODEL CANNOT BE EXPLAIN ED AWAY OR EXCUSED SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DO NOT FIT .

Homo Erectus is believed to have lived around 1.7 to 1 million years ago and had a brain capacity of about 700-1250 c.c.

1. Nebraska Man

Nebraska Man is the supposed human-like fossil found at the time of the Scopes trial in 1922. (A.C.L.U. involvement) Found in western Nebraska by Harold Cooke and described by Henry Fairfield Osborn, then head of the American Museum of Natural History. Claimed to be the link between Man, chimpanzees, and the supposed hominid Pithecanthropus.

The name given to "Nebraska Man" was Hesperopithecus haroldcooki.(after by Mr. Cook)Grafton Elliot Smith convinced the Illustrated London News to draw an artists conception of the "man" and it looked like modern man, albeit a little brutish.

From a single tooth were drawn a man; complete with skin, hair, nails, etc., and his entire family!

2. Neanderethal Man

100,000-30,000 years ago, according to postulated evolutionary time. 1,100-1,700 c.c. brain size.

1856: Richard Owen speaks at a science conference to tell them that there are vast obvious differences between man and apes.
1857: Skull and limb bones found in a quarry in Dussel, Germany.

1857: Further excavation reveals a second set of bones in Neander Valley.

The publication of On The Origin Of Species in 1858 really highlighted the discovery and brought the fossils into a controversy. Is there a coincidence in the timing?

Proof for the theory was neeeded to validate Darwin's claims.

The first skeleton was of an old man.

The rest are all of modern humans.

Reconstructed by the BIAS of the Evolutionist.

One year later: The world gets it's first glance at Mr. Neanderthal-a stoop-shouldered, massive-jawed, beetle-browed, muscular, recessed-chinned, short-femured ape-man.

The name given was Homo antiquitus, or "antique man".

Ancestor to Neanderthal is a complete mystery. No one knows where they came from.

Rudolf Virchow, the founding father of modern pathology, inspects the find and declares that the fossils are indeed of man-only modern man, and he had curved bones from rickets and arthritis.

Several decades pass with the discovery of up to 60 more skeletons from America, Africa, Asia. Galley Hill Man in 1894. 1908: Professor Boule of the Institute of Human Paleontology in Paris, France has a new discovery of Neanderthal at La-Chapelle-aux-Saints. The description by Professor Boule comes with a totally evoutionary bias. It is all ape-man.

In 1908 a Neanderthal skeleton was found in Poland, he had died in his suit of armor! (Nature, Volume 77, page 577 April 23, 1908 "Late Survival of Neanderthal Type.")

1923: 2 Neanderthal-like skulls(and Neanderthal in time) discovered in Santa Barbara, California, but these were rejected since man was not supposed to have arrived here by then. Man is supposed to have come here only around 20,000 years ago.

The brain size is estimated at around 1,600 c.c., but this is not mentioned and in fact rejected as it does not make it a "link" but rather a superior man to even modern man.

Years later, several fully human skulls were found that dated much older than Neanderthal Man:

Swanscombe skull in 1935 (250,000 years); Fontechevade skull found in 1947 (85,000 to 135,000 years); Vertesszollos in 1965 (400,000-700,000); Steinheim (500,000-3,000,000 years) were all Neanderthals.

1957: St. Bartholomew's Hospital Medical College. Anatomists Cave and Strauss re-examine the bones and discover that Dr. Virchow was right all along and that the reason for rejection WAS evolutionary presuppositions and preconceptions. Chicago Field Museum, which previously had had an exhibit on Neanderthal showing it as a transition from ape to man, now made a new one showing Neanderthal as fully human, but to this day it is still kept in the basement of the museum, while the evolutionary exhibit is still presented to the public.

1970: Dr. Ivanhoe examines and finds the same problem with the bones, lack of vitamin "D" resulting in the deformities in the bones. He says that this also causes the eye sockets to change to the shape in Neanderthal, and can happen to anyone today.

1971: Dr. Wright does the same and adds that they could easily have had syphillis, thus causing all of the same symptoms as Neanderthal. Now classified as Homo sapiens or fully human-just subspecies neanderthalensis. The reason? They discovered that the only reason the bones appeared to be hunched is that his diet lacked Vitamin D. This is of the first old man discovered.

There was also evidence of inbreeding due to ice age, isolation. His cranial capacity EXCEEDED that of Modern Man.

Modern man found lower down than this-thereby proving that Neanderthal Man evolved from us?!

Shown that diet effects jaw shape, dentition within kinds.

People nowadays can have the same facial features(heavy eyebrow ridges, elongated head)just from old age as Neanderthal, and some actually do.

Known that women from India can have the same eyebrow ridges and look perfectly normal.

The preconceived notion of evolution had once again gotten in the way of true science.

Finally, a woman in 1910 in the Phillipines was found to be virtually indistinguishable from a Neanderthal.

She was alive! Her characteristics were:

• Massive Jaw
• Recessed chin
• Eye Brow ridges
• Muscular
• Stooped shoulders
• Short Femurs

2A. THE LADY FROM GUADALOUPE

1812: On the French Carribean Island of Guadeloupe, a complete skeleton of a fully human woman was found, only the head and feet were missing.

The bones were definitely all from the same individual as they were cemented together in Limestone(miocene) in the proper place.

She stood approximately five feet two inches tall and was healthy.

The skeleton was on display at the British Museum of Natural History for more than fifty years.

She was dated at 20,000,000 years!

2B. CALAVERAS SKULL

Also found were many, many stone mortars, bowls in the same location as the skull.

This part is never mentioned and the press called it a hoax, and that someone had deliberately put the skull there.

No evidence of intrusion was ever found.

Dated at postulated evolutionary age of from 2,000,000 to 25,000,000 years.

THIS was the problem.

This find and the Calaveras Skull were removed later from display when Darwinism came into vogue.

3. Cro Magnon Man

1940: Discovered by some boys playing in a cavern near Lascaux, France.

The cave is called Cro-Magnon, which means "big hole". As per usual, Cro-Magnon Man appears abruptly in the fossil record and is completely man. The skeletons show that Cro-Magnon Man was taller than the average European today, well over six feet. Paintings of bison, deer, horses adorned the walls of the cave. But the information again missing from the textbooks on art and ancient man is that the drawings and paintings are three dimensional and very well assimilated into the cave walls.

The evolutionists rejected the paintings as being from ancient man and the finder, Marcelino de Sautuolo in 1879 was ridiculed for the very notion. It seems preconcieved notions can get in the way sometimes. Cro-Magnon would not fit the "tree" if it could be shown that he possessed great skill and knowledge.

It has also been documented by a Mr. Marshak that these people kept very good daily records on star and moon movements.

The usual poses of Cro-Magnon people in books shows them in animal skin clothing. But a very candid picture printed in an article in Time-Life books and also in National Geographic shows a mother in a dress and hair pins in the daughter's hair, almost suggesting civilization.

There are 70 more sites in France, and soon after the first discovery, another was found in Les Eyzies. Also found in caves alongside Neanderthal skeletons.

The only fuel for the Evolutionary fire was the fact that these people may have lived in caves.

But there is enough evidence to suggest that they did not live there, but rather used the cave as storage.

There are people today living in caves.

People in Bible times lived in caves, including King David.

People in Arizona live and make expensive homes in caves.

This does not fit the evolution model as it would predict that man was smaller in the past.

4. Java Man

Dubois talks with professor Ernst Haeckel at Jena University and is told that man probably originated in Far-East.

Haeckel actually drew a picture of the supposed "missing link" for Dubois and convinced him of the fact that this creature really existed. He called it "Pithecanthropus alulus".

Armed with this information, Dubois travels to Sumatra and joins the military.

Dubois entered the service in the field of medicine, and after some intense persuasion on his part, convinced the authorities in charge to allow him to further his fossil hunting earnestly in the area, with the help of many dozens of diggers.

Before any "hominid" fossils were uncovered, hundreds of crates of animal fossils were unearthed, showing the area to be a fossil rich area.

First discovered was a skull by a friend. Then Dubois joined in and found a second one.

Next he moved some distance away from this area and began to look elsewhere for the "missing link".

After removing about 10,00 cubic meters of dirt, the workers uncovered a tooth(September 1891), then later a skull cap(October 1891), a thigh bone (August 1892)and lastly one more tooth(October 1892). This all occurred between September-October 1891-1892.

The skull cap and the femur are now declared by Dubois to be the long sought after "missing link".

He calls the find Anthropopithecus erectus or "upright man-like ape".

Later, after realizing that maybe the thigh bone was a little too human like, he changed the name to Pithecanthropus erectus, meaning "upright ape-man".

He claimed that the date was 500,000 years ago.

The scientific community of the day was not really overly impressed with Mr. Dubois's find and the church he earlier had been associated with had also rejected him.

After depression came, Dubois went into seclusion, refusing to show the bones to anyone.

In 1908 a renewed interest in Java came from the Berlin Academy of Science when they sent an expedition to the island to confirm Dubois's fossil. Dubois refused to join them or even support them.

After removing with the utmost European deftness and combing through another 10,000 cubic meters of dirt, the expedition was called off and called a failure-but not completely.

The expedition had discovered that, for Mr. Dubois to date the fossils using the index fossil method, was not very smart, as it was discovered that the area was at one time buried from a volcano, thus mixing things up.

Revealed 35 years later that the femur is human and that the skull cap is of a giant gibbon.

Also, they were found at different times and at different locations.

ALSO, Dubois revealed 35 years later that he found the two Wadjak skulls at the same level as the original skull cap. He knew that it would ruin his "intermediate" status.

The two other skulls had actually been tucked away under his house floorboards! They were fully human skulls completely nullifying the Java Man from the "family tree".

In the 1940's Ralph Von Koenigswald found many more skulls like Dubois's "Java Man" in Java, but no limb bones were ever found.

Dubois died in 1940, his "ape-man" being renamed Homo erectus a decade after his death.

"Java Man" lies in state at the Leiden Natural History Museum in Holland.

A quote from Terry Anne White in Man Before Adam, (.J. Random House, 1942), p.70, 71:" The excavator gave little thought to the possibility that the tooth, the skull cap, and the thigh bone had belonged to different beings. He had found all three in exactly the same layer. The fact that the thigh bone was forty feet from the skull cap did not disturb him; he knew that flowing water will often separate the parts of a skeleton to such a distance. And if he were to suppose the parts belonged to three different beings, then he must suppose that a very improbable thing happened. He must suppose that at this very narrow spot on a river's bank and at very nearly the same time three quite different individuals had lost thier lives. Judging from the thigh bone, one of these beings was a man having a few minor ape-like traits. Judging from the teeth, the second was a human being clearly showing ape-like traits. Judging from the skull cap, the third was a large-headed ape showing marked human. Such a change was so unlikely that he dismissed it at once. No, there was no question that the bones all belonged to one being, and if fortune favored him, he would yet be able to put his skeleton together".

5. Peking Man

Before going on to Peking Man, let's look at another similar find in Hong Kong. A certain Ralph Von Koenigswald went into a drug store in 1935 and, upon inspection a drawer of various teeth(including some "dragon's teeth"), found what he believed to be a human tooth. Thinking he had found a missing link, He called it Gigantopithecus blacki. Not learning a lesson from Nebraska Man, the find was considered valid until 1970, when it was examined and found not to be like human teeth at all. A Quote From Duane Gish:

The search for Peking Man leads us on a windy road, filled with trouble from start to finish. It involves men looking to find the "Missing Link", and the players involved in the drama are interlocked not only from this adventure, but also others.

In 1921 a man named Otto Zdansky found 2 "humanlike" teeth in an area near Peking, China.

He was on a dig sponsored by a man called Ivar Krueger, also known as "The Match King", as he was known to be a swindler.

Upon returning home to Sweden, Otto Zdansky slipped into obscurity, while in 1932 Mr. Krueger committed suicide.

Enter Davidson Black. He read the book Climate and Evolution, and decided to go out to search for the "missing link".

Davidson Black, Professor of Anatomy at Union Medical College, in Peking, had also studied under Grafton Elliot Smith, a well known brain specialist(of Piltdown fame).

Enter also Teilhard de Chardin, a Jesuit Priest of Piltdown fame, now frequently implicated as the perpetrator of the entire hoax.

Chardin works with Davidson and Professor Marcellin Boule, University of Paris-the man responsible for the incorrect drawings of Neanderthal Man.

In 1927, with sponsorship from the Rockefeller Foundation about to dry up completely, something had to break.

Then-it happens! Another tooth is found.

On this scanty evidence alone, Davidson Black, claimed that it was an early Hominid fossil.

Rockefeller Foundation pours in more money for the dig.

Then in 1929, with the money about to be shut off once again, a nearly complete skull is found.

Davidson Black say that the cranium size is 1,000 c.c. While Chardin, Boule, Smith, and a man named Ralph Von Koenigswald all say that Black is exaggerating and that it is just a large ape.

Between the 1920's 1930's were found the remains of Peking Man. The find consisted of fragments of about thirty skulls, eleven mandibles, parts of 7 thigh bones, one wrist bone, and about 147 teeth.

Since the 1950's to the present the Communist Chinese have apparently found two pieces of a leg bone and an arm bone, and in 1966 parts of a skull.

Peking Man was then presented to be 500,000 years old, and called Sinanthropus pekinesis. Then it was changed to Pithecanthropus pekinensis, and finally to Homo Erectus pekinensis.

This illustrates the willingness of Evolutionists to accept, without further study, that something is a "missing link". This is not an exception, but a rule.

Opinions ranged from "intermediate" to "giant gibbon".

The location allegedly was a cave, later called the "lower cave", as the remains of a modern group of people were allegedly found above them in an "upper cave". The caves are supposed to have been filled in by some collapse in the past, as it's not there anymore.

There were also the bones of about 100 animals in the two "caves". From top to bottom the fossilized animals do not change. Is it possible that the "Hominids" did not change?

A catholic priest visited the site around this time and found that it was one cave, "caved in". The cave is about 150 feet in heighth.

Also found were signs of civilization. A kiln, fires, ashes. Appeared to be a quartz mine. Antlers, stones and bones were found that appeared to be carved, as well.

Chardin admitted that there was an ash heap 3-4 meters high.

In 1983 a paper written by two men named Rukang and Shenglong admitted that the ash heap was at least 6 meters high.

A paper was written by a guy named Breuil on this find, but it was heavily suppressed, as evidence for ape-men was more to the liking of the scientific community than just plain men.

Today the textbooks just say that there was evidence that these ape-men may have invented fire, but this is a far cry from the finds at the site.

They also say that the people were cannibalized since so many of the skulls were allegedly bashed in in the back, and there were stone tools in the cave.

The public is once again left with the impression that a missing link was found.

Chinese used such things to eat monkey brains. Could this be a site of someones meals?

But the saga continues......

Davidson Black, after recieving numerous rewards for finding the "missing link", died in 1934. The pieces were later assembled and plaster casts made by a Mr. Franz Weidenrich. All we have today in textbooks are ALLEGED plaster casts of the skulls. The students are not told this part.

All of the fossils mysteriously disappeared in the second world war, 1941-1945. There are many stories as to how and why the fossils disappeared, but none are verified, or apparently is verifiable.

The most popular story is that the Japanese took, lost, or stole them while they were being moved from Peking to the U.S. Marines, who were leaving at the time.

6. Piltdown Man

1908: Charles Dawson. while walking by a gravel pit near his home in Piltdown, England, figured that this would be a good place to find fossils. He told the workmen to let him know if they found anything.-The Case Of The Missing Link, children's book by Eleanor Clymer, Basic Books Publishers.

Piltdown, England is very close to the home of none other than Charles Darwin himself, and no bones of "ape-men" had ever been found in England. Besides, proof for his theory of evolution was not yet found anywhere in England.

From 1908-1912 the skull and jaw bones of Piltdown Man were discovered in the gravel pit near Dawson's house.

1912: Arthur Smith Woodward, Director of the Department of Geology at the British Natural History Museum in London, a doctor of medicine and amateur paleontologist, writer of more than 600 papers on the subject, considered the foremost expert on fish fossils in the entire world, takes a look at the "fossils" and proclaims the new discovery of a fossil "Ape-Man", Piltdown Man, named after the area in England where they were found.

Enter Arthur Keith, with doctorate credentials longer than your arm, to assist.

Also called in to assist in the work is none other than Grafton Elliot Smith the brain anatomist, and Teilhard de Chardin. The credentials of the four of them combined would be enough to cover many walls.

The name given was Eanthropus dawsonii, or better known as "Dawn Man".

The skull appeared to be human, and the jaw appeared to be an ape.

But there were problems from the start. First the canines were missing-key to identity.

Also the part that attaches the jaw to the skull was missing. Even though the two parts did not at first appear to match, whether or not the two were in fact were compatible could not be immediately determined.

The skull was not in one piece, and the cranial capacity could not be determined without the missing pieces.

But the attempt was made to determine the cranial capacity anyway.

Arthur Keith said that it was about 1,500 c.c., while Woodward Smith estimated it at 1,070 c.c.

The controversy was settled when mysteriously Teilhard de Chardin discovered the missing tooth in the gravel pit.

Alleged to be from about 500,000 years ago. In the 1950's a new test for age was developed, using the amount of flouride in the bones(absorbed from the soil). The Jaw was determined to be as dating back to the year it was found, and the skull only several thousand years.

In fact the jaw contained no flouride, and "was not even a fossil".

Upon later and more close examination in subsequent years, it was determined that the bones were treated with iron salts to give the appearance of age, and the teeth had been filed to look human-like.

Duane Gish:"the forgery fooled the experts for years!" The whole thing was a DELIBERATE HOAX, or FRAUD!

To quote Jaquetta Hawkins in Nature, 204:952(1964):

8. Rhodesian Man or "Broken Hill Man"

This one is not commonly known about today, but it serves as a lesson to anyone who thinks that paleoanthropology, or the study of "ancient man", is totally objective when carried out by Godless men.

The skull was happened upon purely by accident in 1921 in a zinc mine in Broken Hill, Zambia, which at that time was called Northern Rhodesia.

It was a nearly complete skull, sort of like a typical ape-man represented as fact and paraded before the public constantly by the establishment.

The skull had the typical protruding eyebrow ridges and the forehead was not as straight up from the top of the face as man is usually.

There were several individual partial skeletons found after this and the total was sent to the British Museum of Natural History.

The location was subsequently destroyed by mining so there is no way to verify how the remains were layed out.

The skull capacity was measured at around 1,280 to 1,325 c.c., less than modern man.

The age given was about 300,000 years old.

For the British Museums display, once more the bias of the evolutionists: W.J. Pycraft; and the person who hired him, Arthur Smith Woodward, neither of whom knew enough about anatomy to do the reconstruction correctly-especially since the hip bones and others were rather smashed up. This resulted in a stooped over man, and made to look like a "missing link".

The name given was Cyphanthropus, or "stooping man".

The placement of the hip bones, the all important part of the anatomy which determines whether the creature would walk upright or on all fours as a "knuckle-walking ape", was found later by an anatomist to be incorrect.

The name was then changed to Homo rhodesiensis, or "Rhodesia Man". The hip bones now properly placed, it was obvious that this was a man.

The problems then got worse. Upon closer examination it was found that the man had Rigg's disease and tooth decay, both tooth and gum problems and both signs of civilization!

Also there are two holes going right through the skull. They appear to be entrance and exit holes for some sort of ballistics.

For instance, the left-side hole is small and chipped on the inside. This would indicate an entry hole. The right-side hole is three to four inches in diameter and has the same fractured and rough edges as the left side.

Who knows? Maybe the guy was shot. Although this sounds impossible to the evolutionist, the evidence can not be discounted just because man was not supposed to have this type of weaponry 100,000 years ago.

The evolutionists have claimed that the small hole is from a secondary infection of the tooth decay, but no evidence was found. Besides, this says nothing of the larger, right-side hole.

Also theorized was that the hole was from a cancerous growth. Again, no mention is made of the large hole.

Dr. David Pilbeam, of Ram,apithecus fame, writes about this and leaves all questions and answers unaddressed in his treatment of the skull in The Evolution Of Man.

Teilhard de Chardin wrote about Rhodesia Man in his book The Appearance Of Man, but does not even include the hole in a drawing of the skull.

7. Ramepithecus

When Ramepithecus was first discovered in 1932 in the Siwalik Hills of the Himalayas; David Pilbeam, one of this country's most esteemed paleoanthropologists, hailed it as the definitive fossil of an Ape-man. NO ONE in the field thinks so anymore. They were also found in Kenya, the Swabian Alps of Europe, and in Yunnan Province in China.

Drawn from artist's conception of narration of paleontologist.

"Rama" is named after an Indian god, "Pithecus" means ape, and the fossils Oreopithecus, Dryopithecus, Limnopithecus, Kenyapithecus are included in the group.

The finder was a G.E. Lewis, a Yale Graduate student.

Pilbeam had drawn his conclusions from only a few teeth and pieces of jaw. The jaw parts were not connected. "MILLIONS of Years old" and: Small teeth, so....Had to defend itself, so....Had to walk upright, so....Evolving toward man.(Of course!)

For a short while, everything looked okay.

But then, as usual, the objective studies revealed another story.

The main study was done by a Dr. Robert Eckhart, a Penn State anthropologist. He compared the fossils to fossilized apes and to living chimpanzees in the area, and some wild ones in Liberia.

RESULTS:

• In 24 samples, the range BETWEEN the chimps themselves was more than the range BETWEEN the fossil samples in 14 instances, the same range for 1, and less for 9. And those in the group of 9 only had small differences.

• Living chimpanzees have a greater range of size teeth than the known fossil apes and the "Hominids"

• -The dental characteristics were the sole reason for the conclusion of it being a Hominid!

  HIS Conclusion:

  "Neither is there compelling evidence for the existence of any distinct hominid species during this interval, unless the designation "HOMINID" means simply any ape that happens to have small teeth and a corresponding face." (IT IS AN APE!)

• More recent study has been done by two men by the names of A. Walker and P. Andrews published in Nature 244:313(1973). They had more samples to study than Dr. Eckhart. They concluded that the jaw shape is like, even identical to that of an ape, not a human.
• Pilbeam and Alan Walker, as well as Richard Leakey, have definitely concluded that Ramapithecus was an ape. Also included were skull parts, leg bones, face parts.(Nature 295:232:1982/ D.R. Pilbeam:Natural History 93:2 1984) Pilbeam, in THE EVOLUTION OF MAN: "Locomotion, like body size, cannot be inferred without some post-cranial bones. It would be unwise to speculate about Ramapithecus' locomotion from a knowledge solely of it's jaws and teeth!" BUT THAT'S HOW HE HAD DONE IT INITIALLY!

Pilbeam: "Orangutans are living fossils"

OLDUVAI GORGE

The Olduvai Gorge is located in Tanzania, Africa and has been the source of many fossil finds in the search for the "missing link" between man and his supposed ape-like ancestors.

The Gorge has been manually divided up top to bottom into five main layers , or "beds", bed number one being the "oldest" and bed number five being the "youngest".

One feature that is remarkable, but not all that uncommon geologically, is that bed five at times travels downward and winds up under bed one. This is especially true in the area of some very precious fossil finds.

Another unusal feature not widely known about these beds is that in bed one Mary Leakey, wife of the late Louis Leakey, found a circular stone shelter of some sort. It is man made.

The postulated date for this habitation is about 1.9 million years. This would theoretically put man way before many of the supposed "ancestors" of man.

8. Australopithecus, Pithecanthropus, Zinjanthropus, Paranthropus, Plesianthropus, Telanthropus, Homo habilis

Supposed evolutionary time is 3.75-1 million years ago.

Brain size is 380-550 c.c.

First discovered by Raymond Dart in 1924.

Raymond Dart, born in Australia in 1893, was a student of Anatomy-especially that of the brain and nervous system. His interest in human evolution later surrounded this study-the evolution of the brain and nervous system.

After graduating from college in the 1920's he moved to Johannesburg, South Africa. His main purpose was to find the "missing link". The stage is always set when this happens.

In the Taung Limestone Quarry, he found the face and lower jaw of an ape and HE DECIDED that it was a "missing link".

Then, hastily preparing a report for the world to see, Dart claimed to have proof that man originated in South Africa

The find was called Australopithecus Africanus or "Southern Ape".

To Dart, the skull was ape-like, except a little bit human-like, but the teeth seemed human-like, as they were smaller. HAD SAGITTAL CREST, massive brow ridges and dentition. The jaws were U-shaped like apes.

Also found were what were "supposed" to be small tools. We don't know what they are.

This created controversy, as the others said the similarities were immaterial and he was making a mountain out of a mole hill.

The scientist were divided on this, most of them rejecting it as nothing more than an ape.

The media was divided as well. Many said that it was nothing, many said it was the "missing link". The "missing link" part was implanted into the unsuspecting mind of the public.

There was even a book written about the find claiming that South Africa was the home of early man. It was written by a failing Prime Minister who needed votes. The book was called Holism and Evolution.

Today the Taung Skull is considered an ape.

Later other fossils similar to Dart's were found by a Robert Broom, and a John T. Robinson, as well as by Dart himself.

In fact, the amount of finds and claims of "missing links" got so out of hand that they had to hold a moratorium to decide what to do. The result was to divide the finds up into two groups-

1. Pithecanthropus	750 c.c. brain or more
2. Australopithecus	750 c.c. brains or less

Australopithecus robustus is essentially the same as above- with bigger teeth, jaws and bony ridges on the face (like gorillas and orangutans).

Australopithecus gracilis is the variety with the smaller teeth-more gracile.

All of these fossil animals possessed brains on the order of 500 c.c. brains, much the same as ape, one third that of humans. Their brains were that of apes. Period.

The problem is that the jaws and teeth appear to be too small for apes. Certain teeth(molars) are ALL massive, however. The size is the same as gorillas.

The hip, limb, and foot bones have also been discovered, and the concensus by Broom and Le Gros Clark is that they walked upright. Most Evolutionists would agree on this conclusion.

Solly Lord Zuckerman, a famous anatomy expert from England, and Dr. Charkles Oxnard, Director of graduate studies and Professor of Anatomy at the University of Southern California Medical School, both studied limbs, hip bones and foot bones.

Their conclusion? They did not walk upright.

An article in Science News(Vol. 100,November 27, 1971, p.357)states:

It is argued that Zuckerman and Oxnard did not have pelvis, but they studied identical pelvises of much younger Australopithecines, and THESE did not walk upright-why should we conclude that these, being older, walked upright? Richard Leakey: "This is a short-legged, long-armed, knuckle-walker."

Leakey later reversed his thoughts on this, but Zuckerman and Oxnard, as well as others, have not.

DIET can mean different type teeth, not ancestry.

NOTE: There is a "high altitude" baboon in Ethiopia called Theropithecus galada, with all of the same teeth and jaw characteristics as Ramepithecus and Australopithecus. This set of characteristics is because of it's diet. Does this mean that our ancestor is a living, high-altitude baboon? Laetoli footprints: The Laetoli footprints were discovered in Africa. They were found hardened in volcanic ash and dated by K-Ar to be around 3.9 million years old. The only problem is that the footprints are identical to those of modern humans. Drawn in by artist is a "possible scene" from the footprints.-modern birds, elephants, etc., then an ape-like man. THE FOOTPRINTS ARE KNOWN TO BE HUMAN!

And this from Richard and Mary Leakey. Again, the artist defines the picture on no evidence.

They also studied ear bones and concluded that the animals were farther from US than they were from apes.

Leakey has removed Australopithecus from the chart leading to man in his book Origins.

NOTE: There have even been cases where apes have decided to continually walk upright. One individual of (Cyanopithecus niger) was only allowed to be with humans in the Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens.

ZINJANTHROPUS OR "NUTCRACKER MAN"

Louis and Mary Leakey, the famous "hominid" finders, found a skull in Olduvai Gorge in 1959, along with some stone tools, in the lowest bed, or BED ONE. Presuming that the skull was a hominid, and owing to the stone tools, they announced that they had found evidence of early man's ancestry.

They dubbed the find Zinjanthropus boisei, "Zinjanthropus" meaning East Africa Man, and "boisei" after the man Boise who funded the project.

It is constructive to point out that Boise's funding was about to run out for the dig, and that the find ensured the Leakeys additional funding from National Geographic Magazine-JUST IN TIME!

They also ran an article in the usual evolutionary manner on the find. According to Leakey, Zinjanthropus was more man-like than Australopithecus, so he called it an "ape-man" and it was reported that HE dated it at 600,000 years. It later turned out that the date came from a certain G. Mortelmanns-a writer of science.

The first chemical dating was performed in 1961 at University of California at 1.75 million years. The Potassium-Argon method was utilized.

One of the things not widely publicized is the find of Hans Reck of Germany in 1913 of a complete skeleton in one piece, kind of like a mold, all cemented together in the order of a skeleton.

The skeleton was found in a layer directly above Leakey's Zinjanthropus boisei. Way too close for evolutionary time.

By the way, in a practice not done by Mr. Leakey and not too many other anthropologists to this day(except when something is obviously out of the "correct" evolutionary order), he made sure that the skeleton was not intrusive in the layer of rock-in other words, that the skeleton did not wind up there because of an earthquake or from human actions.

He did this because of the nature of the find(a little old to be man).

No evidence of intrusion was found.

Leakey himself personally inspected this find in the 1930's,

BUT THIS FIND AND THE SUBSEQUENT INSPECTION BY LEAKEY WERE NEVER REPORTED IN THE ARTICLES SURROUNDING THE ZINJANTHROPUS FIND.

In 1974, an attempt was made to date the skeleton by the Carbon-14 method, but only the skull could be found-the skeleton had dissappeared!

The skull was dated at 16, 920 years-and this directly above a layer with a skull(1470) dated at 1.75 million years!

Leakey later admitted that he had made outrageous claims for his Zinjanthropus, said that it was not more human-like that Autralopithecus, and called it just another Australopithecus variety-Australopithecus bosei.

In 1964, if matters are not bad enough already, another skeleton was found one of a HUMAN skeleton! The source for the stone tools were now obvious to the objective observer -MAN had made them!

Leakey called this find Homo habilis, or "Handy Man".

There was also a circular habitation found there, as well-evidence of humans.

There was a problem with this one as well, too. In the usual unprofessional manner, and in an effort to gain more money, the haste at which a skeleton is sometimes assembled with various parts is appalling. This was to be no exception.

The hand bones turned out to be parts of a vertabrae, the two possibly even from a tree-dwelling monkey, and six were an unspecified non-hominid.

9. Lucy

Found by Donald Johanson-Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Case Western Reserve University and Curator of Physical Anthropology at Cleveland Natural History Museum.

Fall, 1973-Ethiopia: Found a knee joint which he believed was from a monkey. Upon assembly HE decided it was a hominid.

Dated at 3 million years old. Also dated by index fossils at site of mammals.

Showed find to Richard and Mary Leakey. Conclusion: this is a hominid fossil. Showed to C. Owen Lovejoy. Conclusion: Walked upright.

He is a Professor of Anthropology at Kent State University, an authority on locomotion.

1974: Alemayehu Asfaw, who was with Johanson the first year, found a lower jaw he thought was a baboon's. Then two more jaws, upper and lower. The upper had a set of teeth in it. "Another Hominid".

Dates back to 4,000,000 years, throwing all of the Evolutionary scales off.

November 1974:Part of arm, then 40% of skeleton(vertabrae, rib, skull parts, pelvis). Dated at 3.5 million years.

National Geographic spends big bucks on Johanson.

Lucy: three and one half feet tall, brain 380-450 c.c. volume, and walked upright.

Looked like Australopithecus in terms of skeleton.

1975: 13 skeletons: 4 juveniles, 9 adults. Called "hominids","first family","Lucy","Child","human". Johanson worked with Tim White, a post-doctoral student in anthropology at University of Michigan. Dubs "Lucy" Australopithecus afarensis.(ie. monkey-like) Lucy was portrayed as a short person with an ape's head. From The Evolution Conspiracy, by Caryl Matrisciana & Roger Oakland, p.110:

10. Skull 1470 Louis Leakey's MAN

Homo Habilis is believed to have lived around 3 to 1.5 million years ago, and had a cranial capacity of 600-850c.c.

Richard Leakey;Kenya, 1972: At a site near Lake Turkana (then Lake Rudolph); Bernard Ngeneo, one of Leakey's workers found a skull, almost complete, with lower jaw missing, and called it KNM-ER #1470 (Kenya National Monument, East Rudolph #1470 skull).

First dated by Potassium-Argon method at 221 million years. The dating was done on what is called KBS tuff rock.

The dating was then repeated and the date received was 2.6 million years, plus or minus 260,000.

Later tested AGAIN and found to be between 290,000 and 19.5 million years.

Finally, in order to properly place it in the scale of the evolution of man, a date of 1.8 million years was "placed" upon it, method unknown.

He wrote numerous pa pers on the find, in magazines and books. In the first he congratulates Ngeneo and a John Harris for the discovery, anatomist Bernard Wood for work on site of the pieces, thanks his wife, and Bernard Wood, and anthropologist Alan Walker for assembly of the pieces. He has himself no formal college education so he had to rely on others to do the real paleontology.

Johanson: "All previous theories of the lineage which leads to modern man must now be totally revised...

Characteristics: Vaulted dome, total lack of eyebrow ridges, no nuchal(back of neck) crest. Three million* years old. 800 c.c. brain, even smaller estimated.

Leakey: "Surprisingly advanced early man.....either we toss out this skull or we toss out our theories of early man.......it simply fits no previous models of human beginnings." National Geographic.

Designates it Homo------.

Later writes paper with anthropologist Alan Walker stating it is Homo habilis. Walker says Australopithecus. Leakey: this find "invalidated" all other theories of the origin of man, and he has nothing to put in it's place. Stories are conflicting on skull 1470. Leakey made the fatal error so very common in paleoanthropology, namely, placing it in the middle prematurely. POST-CRANIAL REMAINS: Earlier claimed by Leakey, et al, that this creature was a bipedal walker. Studies by Oxnard and F. Peter Lisowski show that this interpretation is based on incorrect placement of the bones in the skeleton. It did not walk upright.

If the person is an Evolutionist, then he will look for an intermediate interpretation during reconstruction. He will also tell the artist what to draw, usually from nothing but scraps of bone. When scraps of skull parts are found, they are so fragmented that the reconstructionist places filler material in the places missing. His discretion is used to determine the placement of the real fragments. Often the only thing the public or the textbooks have is a picture of a cast or a drawing from which to draw a conclusion, not a photograph of the fragments found.

The point is this: This skull was dated from the surrounding volcanic ash, using the Pottassium-Argon method, at anywhere from 1.6 million years to 3 million years old. This wipes out completely ALL Australopithecine fossils as missing links because this puts man on the scene long before all of these supposed missing links evolved. This is also the main reason why the attack on the interpretation of the dating and the skull size, as well as the statements by Mr. Leakey. You see, the find wipes out for good ALL Ape-Human fossils. Most critics have been Evolutionists who teach that Australopithecus is still on the Evolutionary pathway to modern man. If Skull 1470 is what it appears to be, then the missing link is just that-MISSING! If it is not what they say it is, there is still a problem, because it is more "evolved" looking than the Australopithecine fossils, yet is older in age(of course postulated by the Evolutionary theory).

11. Mistaken For Human Fossils

• A pig's tooth
  
• Dolphin's rib
  
• Donkey's skull
• Alligator's femur
• Toe of a three-toed horse

12. Can you teach an ape to talk?

The human brain, with it's 120 trillion cells is by far the most complex matter in the universe. Even Isaac Asimov agrees. There are NO satisfactory explanations for the Evolution model as to the origin of languages.

Lana the chimp, Washoe the chimp, Koko the gorilla, and Sarah the chimp, were all trained in sign language and on the picture/symbol computer system. But..... Declared J.L. Mistler-Lachman and R. Lachman:"Lana(a chimpanzee)has not been shown to use language by any criterion strong enough to exclude rats, worms, or any other conditionable animal." SCIENCE 185:871(1974).

Enter Jack and Jill, two Carneaux pigeons taught by a B.F. Skinner of Harvard University. The birds reportedly duplicated all of the previous tests done by the apes.

-The article is called "Ape-talk: Two ways to Skinner Bird" R. Epstein, R.P. Lanza, and B.F. Skinner: SCIENCE, 207:543(1980).

WHAT DO THE FOSSILS SAY ABOUT MAN?

Man has always been man and apes have always been apes.

All languages DEVOLVE-no exceptions. The most "primitive" peoples have the most complex language.

All peoples originally migrated circularly from Mt. Ararat and carried with them the objects needed to live and start over. This process was repeated many times. This is the only explanation backed up completety by all of the fossils, without interpretation. The fossil record, as well as Biblical and extra-biblical records, show that the people degeneratd over time. They devolved and at times became "Primitive".

People at various times lived in caves and still do.

Man in the past was VERY technologically advanced, at times to the point that we still can not figure out what they did, or how.

Horizontal variations occurred in the past, and occur in the present, as with all animals(races). NO VERTICAL CHANGES HAVE EVER OCCURRED. Again, the fossils back this up 100%.

Man is uniquely endowed with tremendous social, economic, logical, mental, linguistic, spiritual, planning, remembering, etc. abilities; setting him far apart from the nearest organism. We don't even know what that organism is. There probably is a good chance that there is no competition or that we will never know.

All people, save eight, were wiped out in a worldwide hydraulic cataclysm thousands of years ago. Again, the fossil record backs this up 100%.

Written records only go back 6,000-10,000 years. All evidence beyond this is only speculation, and the two models are all we can use to extrapolate back. This fits the Creation model and not the Evolution model.

All ancient peoples have a Creation and flood account in their writings. According to Evolutionists, this means that people who were originally isolated from each other could not have the same stories. But they do!

The fossil record shows evidence that the peoples of the past were in no way less advanced as the people of today. They may have had less high technology, but they were more, it seems, ingenious. Their technology was maybe simple, but it in many ways was more efficient, economical. The ancients did many things that we can't even figure out today with all of our brilliant scientists.

Articles in magazines call these the "Mysteries of the Past".

The pyramids of Egypt are an engineering wonder.

The musical instruments of ancient China required high technology to manufacture.

Unlocking The Mysteries Of Creation p. 168-end.

Europe had metallurgy before the Greeks. Pushes technology back into past.

Mountains of Ararat: Smelting furnaces dating back to ancient times.

Ancient Egypt: Electroplating back to 4,000 years ago.

Ancient China: Metal preservatives on swords, weapons. Also made of alloys of tin, copper, zinc, cobalt, nickel, magnesium-13 elements in all.

Babylon: Copper cylinder, iron core. When grape juice is poured in one and a half volts comes out. To 4,000 years ago.

Easter Island, Stonehenge.

World travel is evidenced in many ancient cultures. The similarities of architecture and artifacts of the past are beyond coincidence. These people had to communicate with each other. Four different cultures were found in Mexico( masks from Africa,the Orient, Egypt, Phonecia.

Polynesians could master 15,000,000 m./sq. with the ability to navigate by the stars. Could detect currents and even swells(difficult).

AMERICA B.C. by Barry Fell shows how people must have traveled worldwide thousands of years ago.

Many more instances of extreme amounts of technology in the past.

This flies in the face of Evolution, as these people are supposed to be less evolved than us. They are in some cases more. Again the evidence is censored from the classroom of this type, leaving the impression that the people of the past were brute beasts of the stone age. This is simply not so.

HOW DO YOU DATE A FOSSIL OR A ROCK?

1. How NOT To Date A Rock

• Not dated by looks.(old can look young; young can look old)
  
• Not dated by type of rock.(all types are in all layers)
  
• Not dated by contents of metal, oil, minerals.(can be found in rocks of all "ages")
  
• Not dated by structural folds, or faults, unconformities.(no formula, because all "ages" have them)
  
• Not dated by rocks in adjacent layers.(old can be on top of young and young can be on top of old)
  
• Not dated by level of layer.(all "ages" in all layers)
  
• Not dated by radiometric dating.(geologic column came LONG before these lab techniques)
  
• Not dated at all by physical anything.(no distinct characteristic for any "age")

Then HOW?

2. Potassium-Argon?

3. Radiocarbon Dating?

4. Uranium-Thorium-Lead?

5. Rubidium-Strontium?

6. Assumptions With The Above:

B. The crystals in the rocks used came from this igneous or metamorphic rock.

C. The system is closed

D. The process of decay has always been constant

E. There was no daughter element, there was all parent element.

7. Problems With These Methods And Assumptions

A. There is no way of knowing if the earth began in a molten state and evidence is to the contrary

B. They can not know if the crystals formed by this method or by volcanoes in history and prehistory.

C. There is no such thing as a closed system.

D. No Process Rate Is Unchangeable.

E. It is impossible to know what the ratios were at the start.

8. How Are Fossils Really Dated? Index Fossils!

The fossils are dated according to the rocks they are in, and the rocks are dated according to the fossils they contain.

9. This Is Circular Reasoning!

Take any rock or fossil you want to a laboratory to have it dated and the first question you will be asked is "what layer did you find it in?" This should not be important if chemical dating is accurate.

Also, there is a problem when an index fossil, thought to be extinct for millions of years, turns up alive!

This has been done many times.

10. 7000 Year Old-New Lava Rock And Other Mistakes

Lava from Hawaii, known to have erupted days before, was dated at 7,000 years old.

Another lava flow, known to erupt in 1800 and 1801, was dated 169 million years.

Another at the same site,from the same eruption, was dated at 3 billion years.

Rocks at the Grand Canyon were dated at the top to be 2.6 billion years old. They are basalt flows known to have flowed 1,000 years ago. The bottom of the canyon is dated to only be 1.2 billion years old.?????

There are bent rocks supposedly 500 million years old and bent 65 million years ago. No cracks are present.

A LIVING SNAIL was dated to be 2,300 years old.(Science, Volume 130, December 1959.

Uranium dating done on wood found in rocks of the times of the dinosaurs came up with several thousand years. Science Vol. 162, October 11, 1968.: Volcanic rocks dated at 12-20 million years old. Known to have erupted in less than 200 years B.P.
