Is it me or are these “discoveries” of early human ancestors coming in at a frantic pace lately?

These discoveries are interesting, but I have a problem with ‘more than a 11 million years old’. I do not believe our dating methods are that good.

I believe this creation to be about 6,000 years old. I also believe there was an earlier creation. I make no presumptions about when that creation began, or when it ended. As I said above, I do not have a problem with ‘11 million years’, only with ‘dating’. I also do not believe this to be an early human ancestor.

Seems like every other day there are new “discoveries.”

I wonder why there are no better “living links” between apes and man. There is a wide gap between man and apes sou you would think there would be better “living links” if these apes were evolving towards man. The living links are also missing.

If macro evolution were true, it seems like you would have a lot of species that would be much closer to the development of man. What happened to all the apes evolving towards men? I guess all the apes just stopped evolving? Maybe they’ll explain that for me?

It takes a lot of faith to totally buy into evolution theories.

We’re entering summer in the n hemisphere, but clearly it’s still spring (and brrr, by the way). Our spring and fall are the two dry seasons in the tropics, and our summer and winter are the two rainy seasons in the tropics. A lot of the digs (both paleontological and archaeological) are only practical for two or three months a year, then the hard work of analyzing the field records takes some time. There will be a long dry spell, then a flurry of publication, and it is analogous I suppose to the wet-dry cycle of the tropics. :’)
