FInding some old bones,

does NOT change truth,

it just changes evolutionists already made up ridiculous and nonsensicial stories of evolution.

The problem using and ancient chinese proverb,

is trying use men's limited wisdom to make all things fit.

Believers in evolution choose see what they want to see.

if an old fossil, if they choose, in their eyes, becomes an ancestor,

or if doesn't fit it becomes a dead branch or something else.

in other words they choose to see what they want to see.

THey are INVENTING relationships simply based on looks.

How about these proverbs:

never judge a book by it's cover,

or never judge dog by it's hair.


IT seems the real truth is science has no real idea aboutr evolution but is bound and determined to make the theory work,

no matter how much reinterpretation, bending twisting, other mental gymnastics, and out right making stuff up, all to make it seemingly work.

KNowing truth is not about seeing or believing,
but having the proper perspective to understand.

Wow, judging by the above comments, we really need to do a much better job of educating our citizens about science.

This was another wonderfully thoughtful essay by Jerry Johnston.

As Sophocles said:
“What people believe prevails over the truth.”
