"Come now, the only “selection” made was by the artist and that on the basis of his own beliefs only."

The selection of pigmentation and shape of the nose was based upon sound scientific evidence and scientific principles. BTMS said they weren't "normal" because "normal" people have narrow noses, thin lips, and light skin. I suppose it is difficult to see blacks as "normal" human beings when peering through eye holes cut into a pillow case.

It is ironic to see how the YEC posse has to straddle the line that divides good from evil depending on who is doing the posting. Had this statement been attributed to Carles Darwin or even Margret Sanger (an equally abhorrent human being) GGG would have already had a dozen posts about it.

The brutish Neanderthal, the striding but footless Lucy, the dark skinned and hairy Ardi, the Millennium Man, etc. are all creations of the artists just as the creatures themselves are the creations of the paleontologists.

Looking at a bone that one says is millions of years old tells nothing about skin color or hair covering. and one only has to track the changes in facial features attributed to Neanderthals to see the amount of interpretation of these scientific evidences and principles.

I can't agree with much of Thomas’ conclusions but really! PILLOW CASE WITH EYEHOLES????

Is that sort of comment not just what you complain about?
