Human Evolution Story in Tatters. Another skull scrambles the paleoanthropology story. What is the reason for so many rewrites of human evolution?

by Jerry Bergman, PhD

July 20, 2021 | Jerry Bergman

This is the fifth article I have written recently about some new fossil find that the discoverer claims ‘requires a rewriting of the story of human evolution.’ What is going on? The constant revision of human evolution story plot, as a result of a new discovery, can be compared to the twists and turns in a hypothetical murder case.

Looks like me on a bad day.

I keep my hair short and shave during the Summer. Otherwise...I look like that on a good day.

Facts: I love them. I get the warm fuzzies when presented with some.

[Elsie]

How?

It’s PROOF that Evolution works!

After all, there are MANY examples of parasites in the Plant/Animal kingdoms.

[Elsie]

Easy fix. And ‘hunter’ to your dictionary.

And the “Day of rest” indicates that the work resumed on Monday.

Oh??

Genesis 2:2-3
2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work.
3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.

The Creator told Moses what to pen and all was good until till the Serpent showed his stuff in a fig grove, not an apple orchard.

Really?

I've missed this. Could you reference it for me?

But perhaps someone else wants to add something.

The only thing I can come up with is this: when things get fuzzy, it always helps to go back and actually read the SOURCE material.

Did you mean that Dr. Bergman’s article was self-referential?
You do not seem to understand that he comments on an article in “New Scientist” by Alison George and Michael Marshall.

Here is the link for that article:

I am registered with ScienceDirect through Elsevier. One must log in and pay $1.99 for the pdf, depending on how one is registered, such as through an institution, to read it in its entirety.

At my age it is very difficult for me to be respectful to an individual such as yourself who claims that the challenges to the evolution myth are unscientific. Of course that is not an argument anymore than is your ad hominem against crev.info likening them to “Bab Bee without the yuks”. Since you cannot engage with Dr. Bergman’s point you must pretend he doesn’t have one.
“Interested in facts and not apologetics,” you say?
“True Conservatives,” you say?

You can now go back to your religious group meeting and report on the effect of your mighty denunciation of us creationists. The other evolutionist fundamentalists will be proud of your defense of the “Truth”, saying, “You are a true Conservative!” as they pat your back and let you go first in line at the buffet table.

And that "there was not a man to till the ground" is not speaking chronologically but in summary (God created nature in days 1-5 but there was no manager of it yet), and does not mean there a man who could do so but was not charged with doing so, but both the creation of nature and man also belongs under "the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens and of the earth when they were created."

Amen!

Thank you!

[kinsman redeemer]

No.

[freedumb2003]

It is clarification, not rewriting. It does NOT undermine TToE in the slightest.

You need to stop using The Onion as your source.

[freedumb2003]

Enjoy your echo chamber.

.... (2 Peter 3:8) is a simile, not literal, and if you want to make it literal then since a thousand years is as one day then the millennial reign of Christ will only be one day. However, what this simile teaches that God is not bound by time.

Who gave you the authority to degrade the words of Peter ... Here is how Peter opened this chapter...

3:1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: 2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

Then Peter lays out the THREE heaven and earth ages .. What was, what is now and what will be ..

Peter teaches us the methodology of how the Heavenly Father marks 'time'...

8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

You have exposed yourself to be one of those that fit into the Deuteronomy 4:2; Deuteronomy 12:32 and Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

As it is Written, Christ came in the volume of the 'BOOK'.

Nothing Peter penned regarding the means and methods of How the Heavenly Father marks time changes anything regarding the 'Lord's Day that begins on the day Christ return. ... Why John was taken in the Spirit to the Lord's Day, in Revelation.

Absurd ignorance. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. (2 Peter 3:8) As a" is a simile, a figure of speech that expresses a resemblance between things of different kinds, as in "like a locomotive," and 3:8 is teaching that God transcends time, and 3:8 corresponds to "a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night." (Psalms 90:4) Thus 2 Peter 3:8 does not mean that a day is literally a thousand years any more than it means a thousand days is literally only a day. "However, God operates in the time of our dimension and thus specifies what day He created man and what day He rested from His creative work.

"You have exposed yourself to be one of those that fit into the Deuteronomy 4:2; Deuteronomy 12:32 and Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: As it is Written, Christ came in the volume of the 'BOOK'. Nothing Peter penned regarding the means and methods of How the Heavenly Father marks time changes anything regarding the 'Lord's Day that begins on the day Christ return. ... Why John was taken in the Spirit to the Lord's Day, in Revelation. ""

Rather, you have exposed yourself to be a follower of false teachers, and one with a recalcitrant arrogant unreason-able attitude who has effectively thrown just about every classic evangelical Bible teacher under the bus since they do not concur with your fringe perversion. I never realized I was dealing with any cultists on my ping list.

May God peradventure grant you "repentance to the acknowledging of the truth." (2 Timothy 2:25)

[Just mythoughts]

What part of ‘one day is’ with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.. How long did Methuselah live ... not quite a ‘day with the Lord’... After all II Peter 3 is teaching about ‘time’, and how the Heavenly Father ‘marks’ time... and times / of the heavens and earth... that ‘was’ , and ‘is now’, and will be. Those ‘days’ of creation were each as a thousand years with the LORD... Just read what all took place on each of the days ... Obviously, the Heavenly Father knew doctrines of men would question His instructions. That was the purpose of Be NOT ignorant of this one thing .... ‘time’. The Heavenly Father created ‘time’ and Peter tells us exactly what is used to measure time. Transcends time .. sounds like a science fiction movie.

It is those that take up preaching that find the need to change, add to or take away the Word to fit their own doctrine.

I don't agree with you. What do you think God meant when describing each of the days of creation in Genesis 1 as:

And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.

And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.

And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

I don't think Daniel1212 is the one "find(ing) the need to change, add to or take away the Word to fit their own doctrine". You cannot take one verse about "days" and force every other reference to mean the same thing. Does God not know how to say a thousand years if He means a thousand years? Do you think He is incapable of creating everything EXACTLY the way He says He did?
