The search for a direct connection between humans and the rest of the animal kingdom has taken 200 years - but it was presented to the world today at a special news conference in New York.
The discovery of the 95%-complete 'lemur monkey' - dubbed Ida - is described by experts as the "eighth wonder of the world".
They say its impact on the world of palaeontology will be "somewhat like an asteroid falling down to Earth".
Researchers say proof of this transitional species finally confirmsCharles Darwin's theory of evolution, and the then radical, outlandish ideas he came up with during his time aboard the Beagle.
Sir David Attenborough said Darwin "would have been thrilled" to have seen the fossil - and says it tells us who we are and where we came from. . . . (continue reading)
yikes. it's a monkey...they only come up with the dates that they want by foolishness...I'm so tired of all this garbage. :P
ReplyDeleteThe most basic tenets of Darwin's hypothesis are inverted.
ReplyDeleteDarwinism posits that:
1) The fittest species survive
2) Changing and adapting is the pre-eminent method for survival of a species
The 2 points are opposed.
1) If a species is the fittest, why then are so many of the "fittest" now extinct?
2) If a species is most fit, it will be an agent to cause change to maintain itself, not to be changed.
Considrer this:
Human ideologies and the societies built on them have all adapted, changed, evolved, and without exception passed-away. They have left faint, passing marks in the dust, or disappeared without a trace.
However, the most enduring, unyielding societal forms known to history are Judaism and Catholicism. They do not change: they cause change. They thrive and grow in a permanently hostile environment. They are therefore empirically demonstrated to be the fittest.
Darwinism is thereby empirically shown to be invalid sociologically, and totally unapplicable to the people honest enough to embrace and live according to the unchanging truth of our reality.
