No more love for Lucy?
Ryan Jaroncyk
For over the last 30 years, the supposedly 3 . 2 Ma old Australopithecus afarensis specimen known as ‘Lucy’ has been boldly proclaimed as the ancestor of all humanity in magazines, television shows, books, newspapers and museums. However, Tel Aviv University anthropologists have published a study casting serious doubt on Lucy’s role as mankind’s ape ancestor.1 Based on a comparative analysis of jaw bones in living and extinct primates, researchers concluded that Lucy and members of her kind should be ‘placed as the beginning of the branch that evolved in parallel to ours.’ In other words, Lucy should no longer be considered to be our direct ancestor. Lucy’s demise falsifies 33 years of evolutionary hyperbole and propaganda...

You mean I wasted my money on that pump? Dang!
It’s difficult to wrap comprehension around a theory which has so many holes and conveinient loose ends that Piltdown Man could pilot a Mac Truck through it.
I asked you to prove your statement of what you call facts.
I will gladly back up anything that I profess as a fact.
Can you say the same?
I know that question is asked in a condescending way, but the fact is, the Nation of Israel was destroyed, the language was dead, but they were restored, in Israel because God said He would do it. What you are seeing evolve now is the preparation for the attempted annihilation of Israel.
Many people will be surprised when God intervenes, some won't.
Give it up, they do not wish to hear facts.
Now your post and your “proof” are both hogwash.
Somebody using Lamarck as source completely discredits everything that follows...
To be fair I’ve now made a lot of statements on this thread. If you can point out which statement I claimed as fact I’ll be happy to try to clarify. But I don’t think I’ve claimed anything as fact except that Piltdown Man (that creature championed by that wannabe Charles Darwin imposter Clarence Darrow) is a hoax.
Who’s Lamarck? Are you saying those attributions were falsified?
I wish to hear facts. Name one documented positive mutation that has been progenated in humanity in the past 2000 years.
I read the texts because I wanted to learn more about God's wondrous ways.
You embrace anti-science propaganda because you seek vengeance (which belongs to the Lord, not to you) against a field of science that offends your idea of how God performs His miracles.
1b. Give it up, they do not wish to hear facts.
Exhibits 1a and 1b, illustrating how Evos confuse theories with facts and are, thus, themselves prima facia evidence against evolution.
This is another one of these cases facts being "debunked" mainly in evolosers' minds. You're not going to convince anybody here that nobody knew how to do DNA studies in 1997 - 1999 which is when we first started seeing neanderthal DNA studies and that other article I noted which says the same thing from a major study institute is dated 04, and is definitely not twelve years old.
Somebody who discredits Lamarck is a discredit to discrediting.
Extremely well put.
Short memory?
“Lucy” is said to be a human ancestor because human or near human footprints were found near her remains and are assumed to be 3M years old because of that fact”
Who said this other than you?
You assume a lot about my motives which I haven’t revealed.
Were any of those science texts written by apologists for Al Gore? If you want to talk about anti-science propaganda by all means let’s do so but don’t use the left tactic of basically calling be a knuckle-dragger just because I am skeptical of Darwinian macroevolution.
However, you fail to cite any current genomic work that completely tossed out the conclusions of the work(s) you so passionately quote.
Buy a modern science journal, will ya? You’re trying far too hard to be the poster child for modern luddites.
Common ancestor, not descended from. However it happened, God MADE it happen!
