NO I decesnded form Adam and Eve, Noah and his son Japheth.
It was supposed to be Ida? What happened with that?
Well, according to some of my in-laws, I’m related to several kinds of slime-mold... ;-P
See? Just like it says in Genesis! The End.
Brian Thomas, M.S.* never fails to entertain. I am anxiously awaiting the posting of a peer-reviewed article by BTMS*.
I heard a rumor that the scientists discovered a small label on Ardi that read “Made in China”.
They also love to be the researcher presenting the most recent big discovery. Limelight equals renewed research grants and maybe even a new car.
When “Man” received the ability to choose right from wrong and obtained his immortal soul our evolution began. IMHO
One is a missing link, the other is missing a spine
No.
Yes.
[[In his assessment of the significance of Ardipithecus ramidus, bipedality expert C. Owen Lovejoy wrote, “We can no longer rely on homologies with African apes for accounts of our origins and must turn instead to general evolutionary theory.”2 Thus, setting aside evolution-inspired ideology, there is no scientific reason—or observed evidence—to believe that Ardi was an ancestor of mankind. In fact, there is every reason to believe it is solely an extinct primate, as uniquely created as any monkey still alive today.]]
This is a gross fallacy. Lovejoy says in this case to go from specific to general evolutionary theory. The author interprets this to mean to abandon evolutionary theory and completely discount it as unscientific.
[[Based on the Bible’s description of origins, one would predict that all “hominids” should actually be either wholly man or wholly ape. Based on the scientific evidence, Ardipithecus was clearly an ape, and as such fits the Genesis account that each creature group was created as its own kind.]]
A combination of two gross fallacies.
1) Appeal to authority. It’s impossible to obtain legitimate scientific results by using the Bible to interpret scientific theories. The Bible is not a legitimate source of science, any more than a science textbook is a legitimate source of religion.
2) Circular reasoning. Based on the scientific evidence, all hominids are apes. To say that humans are not apes because only apes are apes is fallacious.
If you want to use the authority of the Bible to say that evolution is not a legitimate theory, go right ahead. But attempting to use science to refute it is not going to work, especially if those attempting it don’t understand basic science, as is clearly being demonstrated by this website.
Let’s see what People Magazine says.
Now that a frame has been constructed we can imagine how a body might fit on it and suggest how the former owners lived and what they used the vehicle for and even the color of the machine.
Of course, looking at our creation we see something wrong...all four wheels are one side but while it might make the vehicle move oddly, still it fits the story we constructed from the frame we constructed from the parts we “adjusted” producing the body we imagined.
The Ardimobile crashes and burns.
