From Thread: 'Astonishing' skull unearthed in Africa

Posted by GradyPhilpott, on September 25, 2004 at 13:34 GMT

This story is not exactly news, as the skull was found in the summer of 2002. Undeniably the find has set the world of Anthropology on its ear and impacted many unrelated fields such as baseball.

Consider the following:


The remarkable and momentous discovery of the 7-million-years-old Chad skull ("Sahelanthropus tchadensis") sheds new light on the present Phillies' ownership.

Several salient facts about Chaddy link him definitively to the hominids occasionally seen shambling through the owners' boxes at the Vet. The chimp-sized brain, of course, is obvious, but the abominable condition of its teeth clearly points to an inadequate or non-existent dental plan, just what you would expect from the cheap Phillies' management.

The empty eye sockets prefigure the blindness of the present owners, clearly men of no vision. But most significant is the mouth. The jaws gape, but nothing emerges. In fact, the skull appears to be hollow, empty, utterly devoid of anything, all reminiscent of what emerges from the empty maws of Montgomery, Giles, Wade, and the other faceless skulls who run the Phillies.

Does Sahelanthropus tchadensis offer any hope to Phillies' fans? Well, yes. Sahelanthropus tchadensis became extinct.

Consider the impact on Darwinsim, which is counter to the arguments of some:


The latest evidence to shatter the evolutionary theory's claim about the origin of man is the new fossil Sahelanthropus tchadensis unearthed in the Central African country of Chad in the summer of 2002.

The fossil has set the cat among the pigeons in the world of Darwinism. In its article giving news of the discovery, the world-renowned journal Nature admitted that "New-found skull could sink our current ideas about human evolution."213

Daniel Lieberman of Harvard University said that "This [discovery] will have the impact of a small nuclear bomb."214

The reason for this is that although the fossil in question is 7 million years old, it has a more "human-like" structure (according to the criteria evolutionists have hitherto used) than the 5 million-year-old Australopithecus ape species that is alleged to be "mankind's oldest ancestor." This shows that the evolutionary links established between extinct ape species based on the highly subjective and prejudiced criterion of "human similarity" are totally imaginary.

The well-known Nature magazine's editor and paleontologist Henry Gee wrote in an article published by the Guardian newspaper:

Whatever the outcome, the skull shows, once and for all, that the old idea of a 'missing link' is bunk... It should now be quite plain that the very idea of the missing link, always shaky, is now completely untenable. (4)

Hurriyet Science disregards cunningly the problems the age of the Sahelanthropus tchadensis fossil poses for the evolution theory. With the discovery of this fossil the timing of the branching out of man and chimpanzee claimed by evolutionists to have happened 6 million years ago revealed itself to be inconsistent. Tobias refers to the Swedish Ulfur Arnason's research and states that with the S.tchadensis fossil, Arnason's dating method must be adopted. Arnason puts the age at between 10 - 13 million years. Hurriyet Science might believe that it has bypassed this problem easily enough but when Arnason's research is considered it becomes apparent that the magazine resorted to cheating on behalf of evolution, because its dating of the branching out of man and chimpanzee is based on the molecular clock system which is wholly a product of imagination and prejudice. Arnason opposes the previous dating and "resets" the molecular clock, which interestingly, uses whales as the life form when "setting" the molecular clock to time human evolution. The contradictions are clearly visible in the dating efforts in support of evolution and evolutionists use the "setting" of the molecular clock that suits their purpose. Evolution is not a fact proven by scientific discoveries but is a dogma which misconstrues scientific discoveries for its ends.

While the faith of others is unshaken"


" There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved." - The Origin of Species, Charles Darwin


With these inspiring words, Charles Darwin concluded his book, 'The Origin of Species', and from that date in 1859, nothing in science would ever be the same again. Darwin's concept of Natural Selection was the keystone in an edifice which explains the diversity and nested relationships of species. It is a beautiful and powerful concept, and, as the famous biologist Theodosius Dobzhansky said: "Nothing in Biology makes sense except in the light of Evolution"
