EVIDENCE #4
The supposed hominids (creatures
in-between ape and human that evolutionists believe used to exist) bones and
skull record used by evolutionists often consists of `finds' which are
thoroughly unrevealing and inconsistent. They are neither clear nor
conclusive even though evolutionists present them as if they were.
Evolutionists present much of their finds as if they were compelling and
factual explanations to human evolution. In fact, they base their
conclusions on mere speculation and often the flimsiest of `finds'. Many
discoveries of supposed hominids consist of only a mouth fragment, a leg
bone, a hip bone, or a knee joint. On this alone, they have considered it
to be a hominid. They even name it, reconstruct what it looked like, and
present it to the public as a fact. Some of these finds have turned out to
be those of a pig, donkey, or the result of a hoax. One hoax consisted of
someone placing a human skull with an ape's jaw. Evolutionist declared it
to be a hominid for fifty years without having done an in depth study of
it. Some finds consist of an assortment of fragments found miles apart and
then placed together to look as though they came from the same individual.
Sometimes rocks as simple as those found in any backyard are called tools
of hominids and are pictured in books. Footprints that look identical to
any person's today are sometimes declared in books and accepted as those of
hominids. The brow ridge that supposedly marked the hominid appears only in
one skull.
- "Our task is not unlike attempting to assemble a 3-dimensional
jigsaw puzzle in which most of the pieces are missing, and
those few bits which are at hand are broken!" Famous Paleontologist Richard
Leakey.
- "There is a strong tendency for fossils to be presented as if
they were lucid texts to be read unambiguously rather than scrappy
fragments of unknown morphologies." Famous Paleontologist Misia Landau upon
realizing how poor the fossil evidence was. ([14], p.?)
- "`We've got to have
some ancestors. We'll pick those.' Why? `Because we know they have to be
there, and these are the best candidates.' That's by and large the way it
has worked. I am not exaggerating." Gareth Nelson of the American Museum of
Natural History. ([10], p.74)
- Several of the supposed finds have relied on
mere tooth or jaw fragments. These include Piltdown man, Dryopithecus,
Ramapithecus, and Hesperopithecus. (see picture #1)
([9], p.42; [15], p.44)
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #1: Ramapithecus, considered the first
`hominid' for twenty years by evolutionists, was based only on these teeth.
([14], p.212)
- Piltdown was discovered in 1953 to have been nothing more than an Ape's jaw
placed with a human skull. It was a hoax placed on purpose. They
recognized neither the jaw to be an ape's or the skull to be a human's.
Instead, they declared each part as an in between of ape and human. They
dated it to be 500,000 years old, gave it a name (Eoanthropus Dawsoni or
`Dawn Man'), and wrote some 500 books on it. The `discovery' fooled
paleontologists for forty five years. (picture #2)
([8], p.24-25)

Picture #2: Scientists often demonstrate an utter
inability to
interpret their finds with any accuracy. This hoax, a human skull placed
with an ape jaw, was not recognized as a hoax by the field for forty five
years. During this time, they declared it to the public as being a human
ancestor. ([8], p.25)
- Ramapithecus lasted
twenty years as considered to be the first in-between of humans and apes
by judgment based only on teeth. He is now know to be an extinct baboon.
(picture #1)
- Hesperithecus was actually created from one pig's tooth but
it fooled the entire paleontology field and dental experts for fourteen
years. (picture #3)
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #:3 Evolutionists often base their conclusions
on such small `evidences' as a single tooth. They reconstruct creatures on
this basis alone as pictured here.
- Similarly, hominids (supposed in betweens) are
declared on the basis of such things as a piece of a leg bone, a hip,
or a knee piece, etc. (see picture #4)
([12], p.111; [2], p.51;
[9], p.157)

Picture #4: An example of the poor evidence
that evolutionists use is this hip bone `find' that they say marked a
`hominid'.
- Orce man was based on the skull cap of a donkey.
- The famous find named Lucy placed
together looked nothing more than picture #5 yet it was regarded as a
hominid without reservation.
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #5: Popular `finds' were often based on nothing
more than this and even these bones were not even found together or from
the same individual. ([8], p.57)
- Regarding Lucy, in fact, it is known, "Lucy -
when they required a knee joint to prove that Lucy walked upright, they
used one found more than 200 feet lower in the (earth) and more than two
miles away." ([3], p.83)
- Regarding the finder of Lucy we read, "...he
regards the evolution of man from apes as self-evident, but who also
regards the evidence as poppycock."
- Rarely do they even know if the bone set is from the same individual.
- The Boisei skull was broken in 400 pieces but pieced together and
declared as all from the same skull.
- Regarding the reconstructive drawings always made of these finds
we note, "Well-known anthropologist E.A. Hooten has said that from a
Neanderthal skull an artist can fashion the features of a chimpanzee or a
philosopher and that it is wise to `...put not your faith in
reconstructions.'"
- In addition to being poor, the fossils
are also inconsistent. The Boisei skull has a large crest on the top
(picture #6) unlike any supposed hominid before it or after it and nothing
like any human ever.
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #6: This skull actually has a crest on the top
(as ape skulls only, right picture) but it was declared as a human ancestor.
([2], p.139)
- The brow over the eyes which supposedly
characterized lesser humans existed in none of the fossils prior to
Neanderthal or after.
- Paleontologists have called simple rocks as hominid tools. (picture #7)
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #7: These simple rocks are actually declared by
evolutionists to be tools of `hominids'. ([12], p.100,105)
- Even bones and teeth were picked as tools of hominids. (picture #8)
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #8: Evolutionists have
declared nondescript bone and tooth remains to be tools of `hominids'.
Pictured is one evolutionist demonstrating its use.
([8], p.59)
- The most non-descript footprints were called those of
hominids. (picture #9)
Sorry, no picture yet -- awaiting publisher's approval.
Picture #9: These footprints were actually declared by
evolutionists as those of `hominids'.
- Biochemists Allen Wilson
and Vincent Sarich discovered that the first people had to originate
less than 200,000 years ago and could only have come from an original two
people. This made virtually all the paleontologist's dates wrong and made
all the posited bushes of human origins incorrect.
([15], p.130-131)
- "(That
modern humans evolved in many different areas at the same time) is
theoretically implausible based on current knowledge (in population
genetics)." Popular geneticist Shahin Rouhani
([15], p.133)
- Famous
Paleontologist Roger Lewin admits, "The mitochondrial DNA technique
appears to support the Noah's Ark hypothesis (that we originated from one
set of people at the same location not many people and places as the
evolutionists concluded). ([15], p.130-131)
- Outside the strict fossil
evidence, therefore, each branch of scientific analysis that has
focused on the origin of modern humans - mitochondrial DNA, population
genetics, ecology - has cast its vote to replacement, the Noah's Ark
Hypothesis.
- The paleontologist dates had to be changed.
They had hominids dating as far back as 63 million years.
- Biochemists
and Molecular Biologists note that inferring relationships from fossils
was "Fraught with potential error." ([14], p.105)
- Sarich put it bluntly,
"...it (a fossil) could not be (a hominid), because it was too old."
([13], p.76)
- Paleontologists were slow to admit their errors or even look at
any of the data. At first they just "...trimmed (their) dates...just in
case there was something in it (the biochemistry data)." Famous
Paleontologist David Pilbeam ([14],
p.116). Wilson stated that the
paleontologists "...functioned as if we did not exist. They just ignored
us." ([14], p.116)
- After fifteen years, the paleontologists reluctantly
accepted the biochemistry evidence. "We anthropologists were forced to
admit we had been wrong and that Sarich and Wilson were closer to the right
track than any of us had even imagined." Paleontologist Richard Leakey.
([13], p.78)
- Paleontologists had been producing a new lineage every 10 - 20
years for 60 years. ([21], p.186)
They could not draw these since, "To put
it crudely, the appearance in a single species of a combination of
characteristics some of which appear early...while others appear late."
([15], p.76)
- Famous Paleontologist David Pilbeam, regarding two of the finds
now known not to be hominids, observes, "We should have been aware how
flimsy our original arguments had been and that should have made us more
cautious. But it didn't." ([14], p.100)
- "That 130 years of very determined
efforts to confirm Darwinism have done no better than to find a few
ambiguous supporting examples is significant negative evidence."
