While this is certainly true, I'm most interested in ICR's creepy fascination with the fact that Ardi is depicted without clothes. Enough to write a whole ICR article about it.

Instead of dismissing an important fossil discovery as "too pornographic," why not publish the ICR stance of what the fossils represent. The first half should deal with ICR's dating techniques and how they arrived at them, then a discussion on how ICR would have happened upon the fossils with what they "know" about the 10,000 year old earth and the big flood and why they thought the fossils would be where they were, followed by an explanation as to why Ardi was created and finally perhaps what Ardi should be wearing. A fig leaf perhaps?

The fossils were discovered a full 15 years ago. Does ICR and its adherents believe that it took 15 years to sex the fossils up and create the pan-global conspiracy about who/what Ardi was, or do they accept that sometimes science takes a while to sort itself out. And, depending on that answer, do they feel comfortable dismissing the entire discovery within days of publication with a hastily written op-ed?
