This short work, "Evolution: The Truth" can be used to lead someone to Jesus Christ. It was originally done in an English/Chinese Mandarin version and first published in 1994. From the first four thousand copies there were four hundred and five Chinese that wrote back that they had received the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior! Six thousand more were printed and from the first five hundred of those there have been an additional one hundred and fifty-five plus saved. As of the end of September 1997, 653 people have written the author and stated that they were saved from reading this anti-evolution book.

Ron Powell, Th.D., has published seven books with all of them being given away except for six hundred which were sold, to help print another book. Brother Powell has over 72,000 books in print with 71,400 of those being given away for free. Yes, no charge to the recepients. He believes the Gospel is to be free.

PREFACE

The purpose of this small book is to allow the Chinese people to read information that is available to the English speaking world concerning evolution.

There are quite an extensive use of quotes from scientific books within this small work. This is to establish the fact that evolution is not really even a theory, not a fact, and to show you, the Chinese people, that in the circles of higher education, especially in America, there are many scientists that openly laugh at anyone who believes in the evolution cult.

You will not learn that evolution is false at your local Science Museum, but the information is available to anyone who is sincerely trying to find the truth.

This cult of evolution has become a religion in many places of higher education. Yes, a religion built upon faith! You have a religion or a cult when you add "faith". It is faith when what you believe cannot actually be proven. If evolution is correct, then Genesis 1:1 is not true. If Genesis 1:1 is not true, then there is not a God. If there is not a God, then we are animals that do not need to worry about eternity, hell, heaven, and judgment for the way we live our lives. Thus evolution is one of the many cults of Satan built upon faith. After you finish reading this book I believe that you will come to see that, indeed, scientific evidence does not support evolution.

You now have in your hands a small book that will open up a new world to you about the god of the false scientific community.

CHAPTER ONE

EVOLUTION: A CULT

The theory of evolution is a theory that all living things have arisen by a materialistic evolutionary process from a single source, which itself arose from a dead, inanimate world. This theory is also called the molecule-to-man theory.

The Creation model, on the other hand, postulates that all basic animal and plant types were brought into existence by acts of a supernatural Creator using special processes which are not in operation today.

Thus what we have are two different and very conflicting ideas of how everything came about.

Many modern scientists [?] accept evolution as a fact. When the widely-known geneticist and evolutionist, Dr. Theodosius Dobzhansky was alive he said, "The occurrence of the evolution of life in the history of the earth is established about as well as events not witnessed by human observers can be." 1 Almost all text books in schools assert that evolution is a proven fact beyond argument. They believe it unthinkable to even think that evolution is anything but a pure science. On the other hand there is much scientific support against evolution. Strictly speaking evolution does not even qualify as a theory!

What qualifies a theory to be accepted as scientific? The famous evolutionist, George Gaylord Simpson, said, "It is inherent in any definition of science that statements that cannot be checked by observation are not really about anything . . . or at the very least, they are not science." 2

In other words it is impossible to observe evolution in action, therefore it is impossible to establish it, not only as fact, but impossible to establish it even as a theory!

Straight and simple: To believe in evolution you need blind, rabid, faith in something that is not only impossible to prove, but in which true scientific facts are found to not even remotely support! Remember, to be true scientifically it must be observed!

The Chinese people are taught from childhood that persons in authority are always right: their school teachers; their leaders; etc. When a young Chinese student hears a teacher put forward evolution as established fact, the student will usually believe the teacher. After all, isn't the teacher always right? The Chinese do not realize until about the second or third year of college that their teachers were wrong many times in many ways. The girls, especially realize this after a teacher has tried to force them into doing something they do not wish to do or has given them a undeserved bad grade for not cooperating. Thus the students awake to the many contradictions in his or her society, but most never get over the brain washing effect that evolutionary teaching has had on their minds.

You must think for yourself. Below are some thought provoking questions to make you start thinking for yourself again.

What does an evolutionist actually believe? He or she believes that all kinds of life came from one common ancestor which came from dead chemicals. In turn these dead chemicals themselves arose from a dead world, which arose after being in an explosion which came from a cloud of gas which formed itself from a voidless nothing! Tsk, tsk!

Question: How can anything come to life if it is dead? While laughing at the resurrection of Jesus Christ, they believe in a resurrection of all life from nothing! Tsk, tsk.

Question: Better yet, can anything come to life of itself when it never was?

Question: How can an explosion create anything but chaos?

Question: Are you saying a gigantic explosion will not kill?

Question: Do you really expect me to believe an explosion was the deciding factor in the creation of life? I thought explosions, of the magnitude that would send planets flying through the universe, would kill life, not create it!

Question: Before the gas cloud exploded [Gas becoming billions of tons of rocks?] how did it form? The gas had to have a beginning, didn't it?

Question: If it came from nothing how can something come from nothing? Isn't that faith?

Question: When you have faith don't you have a religion?

Question: How can 0 + 0 equal life when it does not even equal one? If it did equal one then how can one female produce offspring? Okay, how could one male produce offspring? Oh, a single cell became two? Then somewhere along the evolutionary trail you had to have male and female.

Question: Which one came first, the male or the female? How could one male produce? How could just one female produce? If evolution is correct then somewhere in history there had to be just one whale, one monkey, one lizard, right? Was that one, a male or female?

Question: Do both fish and man have eyes because man evolved from a fish or because both man and fish needed to see, in order to fulfill their intended creative purpose?

With simple, basic, reasoning we can see that evolution has more than a few major problems!

What about me? No problem. I claim to have faith in a God that created everything from nothing. Where did God come from? I do not know. I believe by faith! Isn't that what the evolutionists believe by, faith? It is a whole lot easier to believe a God created all of this precision in the universe, diversity of life, and with such intricate design, than to believe a typhoon could create a Mercedes by blowing through a junk yard!

The evolutionists probably believe in some kind of "New Math" because they can take nothing and come up with, not only one, but literally thousands and thousands of life forms on the earth! Pure, rabid, blind, faith. A real cult!

Let us suppose that somehow modern scientists did produce life or a totally different species. Would that not prove that there was a hand guiding and controlling the creation? Yes, it would prove that it had to be created and could not evolve of itself from dead matter! They would succeed in only proving Creation to be true!

Please forgive me if I am speaking too plain for you, but I am an American and we do speak somewhat more blunt than other peoples. This false theory has been pushed down the throats of the Chinese people long enough and it is long past time to put the truth into the Chinese language.

"A definition of science given by the Oxford Dictionary is:

A branch of study which is concerned either with a connected body of demonstrated truths or with observed facts systematically classified and more or less colligated by being brought under gen- eral laws, and which includes trustworthy methods for the discov- ery of new truths within its own domain." 3

Thus, many who believe in evolution insist that since Creation [God creating everything] cannot be proven, cannot be demonstrated, cannot be observed, and has not been witnessed by human observers, that Creation should be refused consideration.

They fail to see that evolution also fails to meet all of these criteria. For example it is obvious that there were no humans living long enough to observe the evolutionary changes that they claim should have taken place. Evolution has never been demonstrated in a laboratory and never will be because of the time, they themselves say, that is required for natural selection to occur. It is obvious that there were no human observers to witness the creation of the natural universe or the beginning, whatever that is to an evolutionist. No one has ever observed an amphibian turning into an ape or any other creature. Yes, evolution has been put forward as a fact when it actually requires more faith than it does to believe, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." [Genesis 1:1].

Even Dobzhansky, as quoted earlier, who is totally committed to faith in evolution has said, "Evolution has not been witnessed by human observers." 4

Another rabid evolutionist, Richard B. Goldschmidt said, "It is true that nobody has thus far produced a new species or genus, etc., by macromutation. It is equally true that nobody has produced even a species by the selection of micromutations." 5

The very item that the evolutionist claims the Creationist cannot prove, is also the item that proves evolution cannot ever be a proven fact! That item is: To be a scientific fact it must be demonstrated! Evolution cannot possibly qualify as a scientific fact. This is admitted by Dobzhansky when he says,

"These evolutionary happenings are unique, unrepeatable, and irreversible. It is impossible to turn a land vertebrate into a fish as it is to effect the reverse transformation. The applicability of the experimental method to the study of such unique historical processes is severely restricted [Editor's note: I'll say! A real understatement!] before all else by the time intervals involved, which far exceed the lifetime of any human experimenter. And yet it is just such impossibility that is demanded by anti-evolutionists when they ask for 'proofs' of evolution which they would magnanim- ously accept as satisfactory." 6

Do you realize what this poor lost soul is crying about? He has plainly admitted that his cult of evolution cannot be proven and he is hurt and upset because people like me are asking him to meet the same criteria that he demands from us. That is: proof, demonstrable proof, human observance now and at the original creation. He wants we Creationists to meet his standards for proof, but when he is asked to meet his own standards, he cries in his beer admitting that he cannot!

Matthews, a British biologist and evolutionist, in his introduction to a 1971 publication of Darwin's "Origin of Species", says,

"The fact of evolution is the backbone of biology, and biology is thus in the peculiar position of being a science founded on an unproven theory - is it then a science of faith? Belief in the theory of evolution is thus exactly parallel to belief in special creation - both are concepts which believers know to be true but neither, up to the present, has been capable of proof." 7

Many famous scientists are now openly expressing their doubts concerning evolution. "Dr. G. A. Kerkut, Professor of Physiology and Biochemistry, University of Southampton, England, is one of the Professors who has questioned the old Neodarwinian transformism. Professor Kerkut writes:

'The attempt to explain all living forms in terms of an evolution from a unique source, though a brave and valid attempt, is one that is premature and one that is not satisfactorily supported by present-day evidence.'" 8

There it is! Their system is built upon faith. Their leaders, in the know, realize this fact and admit to it! And not only admit that they believe by faith, but that the evolution theory cannot possibly be proven. It is the lower ones, like the school teachers, the college professors that are unaware that they, themselves, are teaching a system built upon faith and one that cannot be proven. Thus the poor students are taught by teachers, by Hollywood movies, by their leaders trying to act educated, that evolution is true and they also grow up believing this terrible lie. There is nothing so stupid as an educated fool!

The evolutionist, though claiming not to believe in miracles, actually do. Their own kind of miracle.

They say that Creation of God cannot be right because: FROG t = instantaneous = PRINCE = FAIRY TALE

Yet, they will say, if given enough time, [300 million years] anything is possible!

FROG t = 300 million years = PRINCE = SCIENCE 9

Time is the miracle worker for the cult of evolution. If given enough time they believe that anything is possible!

The very intellectual evolutionist French zoologist Dr. Pierre P. Grasse attacked evolution in one of his books and Dobzanhansky when trying to defend Darwinism said this,

"The book of Pierre P. Grasse is a frontal attack on all kinds of 'Darwinism'. Its purpose is 'to destroy the myth of evolution, as a simple, understood, and explained phenomenon,' and to show that evolution is a mystery about which little is, and perhaps can be known. Now one can disagree with Grasse but not ignore him. He is the most distinguished of French zoologists, the editor of the 28 volumes of "Traite de Zoologie", author of numerous origin- al investigations, and ex-president of the Academie des Sciences. His knowledge of the living world is encyclopedic."10

Scott M. Huse B.S., M.S., M.R.E., Th.D., and Ph.D. in his book "The Collapse of Evolution" has this to say,

"The irony of this whole situation is that the very concept of organic evolution is completely absurd and impossible. It is ab- solutely astonishing that an idea which is so devoid of any legit- imate scientific evidence could have attained a position of such prestige in the name of science." 11

So what is the answer? Easy, just read the first verse of the Bible: "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Creation [sometimes called Creationism] is the only alternative.

CHAPTER TWO

A LOOK AT THE UNIVERSE

Albert Einstein said,

"Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the universe - a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with modest powers must feel humble." 1

Immanuel Kant, the noted Philosopher said,

"In the world everywhere we find clear signs of an order which can only spring from design, an order realized with the greatest wisdom, and in a universe which is indescrib- ably varied in content and in extent, infinite." 2

"If the world's finest minds can unravel only with difficulty the deeper working of nature, how could it be supposed that those workings are merely a mindless accident, a product of blind chance?" 3

"Sir Fred Hoyle, British mathematician and astrophysicist, was an atheist for much of his life. In 1981 he published a book with Chandra Wickramasinghe entitled, "Evolution from Space". Both Hoyle and Wickramasinghe came to the conclusion that the high degree of order and specificity in the universe demanded a preexisting intelligence. Said Hoyle and Wickrasmasinghe, 'Once we see, however that the probability of life origination at random is so utterly minuscule as to make it absurd, it becomes sensible to think that the favorable properties of physics, on which life depends, are in every respect deliberate. It is, therefore almost inevitable that our own measure of intelligence must reflect higher intelligence . . . even to the limit of God'".4

"Astronomers have discovered a gigantic collection of galaxies that they say is the biggest structure ever seen in the universe. The structure, which they call The Great Wall, is so difficult to explain that it raises new questions about theories on origin and structure of the universe. The researchers reported their discovery in Friday's issue of the journal, "Science".

The galaxies that make up The Great Wall form a sheet at least 500 million light-years long,* and it is 200 million light-years wide and 15 million light years thick.

By comparison, the Earth's Milky Way galaxy is 100,000 light-years across.

Ms. Margaret Geller, one of the co-discoverers said, "No one knows of a force [Editor's note: How about God?] that could have produced a structure so big in the time since the universe was formed." 5

Then a few months later. . . Astronomers discovered more than a dozen evenly distributed clumps of galaxies stretching across vast expanses of the heavens, suggesting a structure to the universe that is so regular and immense that it defies current theories of cosmic creation and evolution!

"Nature" scientists said the newly found pattern of clumped galactic matter, if confirmed by further observations, dwarfs the long sheet of galaxies, dubbed the 'Great Wall', that was reported last fall to be the largest structure in the universe.

"They were surprised to see so many large clumps and in such a uniform distribution of matter on such a large scale. But they were astonished to find the clumps so evenly spaced, each either 400 million or 800 million light-years apart.

'The regularity is just mind-boggling,' said Dr. David C. Koo, an astronomer at the University of California at Santa Cruz and one of the authors of the "Nature" report.

It's as if we pierced an extremely narrow needle through the universe and hit one wall after another', said Alexander S. Szalay, an astronomer at John Hopkins University in Baltimore and a member of the discovery team.

'The clumps should be randomly distributed and they're not. that's the biggest surprise.'" 6

Evenly spaced suggests an intelligence created them this way whereas randomly spaced suggests an explosion like the evolutionary example of the Big Bang.

How does this affect evolution theories? Let the evolutionists themselves continue to speak: "In a commentary on the report, also published in "Nature", Marc Davis, an astrophysicist at the University of California at Berkeley, concluded, 'It is safe to say we understand less than zero about the early universe.'" 7

What he means is that the discovery of the "Great Wall" and a few months later of the other walls, along with their spacing, means that the planets cannot have come from a 'Big Bang'. He means that the very foundation of evolution is completely wrong!

With evolution on the defensive in Europe and America why is it still being taught as fact in Taiwan and other countries of the region?

WHAT ABOUT LIFE ON OTHER PLANETS?

In his book, "Scientific Creationism" the eminent scientist Dr. Henry Morris says,

"Not only has no evidence been found that life has ever evolved elsewhere in the solar system, but all previous theories of the evolution of the solar system itself have encountered overwhelming problems as new data have come in."

Creationists, of course, had predicted this all along, on the basis of the creation model. ** For example, some of the definite pre- dictions from the creation model are as follows:

1. Since the earth, moon and planets were each created for a specific purpose, each would have a distinctive structure. They would not all be of essentially the same composition and structure, as would be the case if they had all evolved together from a common source.

2. Only the earth would be found to have a hydrosphere capable of supporting life as we know it.

3. Only the earth would be found to have an atmosphere capable of supporting life as we know it.

4. Evidence would be found of decay and catastrophism on other planets and moons, but not of evolutionary growth in order and complexity.

All of these predictions have been clearly confirmed by the moon landings and by the probes to the various planets and their satellites. Although some scientists still cling to the hope that evidence might yet be found which would support the existence of life in the distant past or distant future on one of these planets, the fact is that no such evidence has been found.

None of the planets has any measurable amount of liquid water and not one has an oxygen atmosphere, both of which are ab- solute essentials for life as we know it.

Clearly the widely published photographs of the moon's surface, as well as of Mars, show signs of past deterioration, even of a catastrophic nature, from whatever their original forms may have been. The asteroid fragments, meteors and meteorites breaking up, and decaying comets all add their testimony of catastrophism and deterioration. Nowhere in the entire solar system is found any evidence at all of a building process, either of the planetary bodies themselves or of the complexity of the chemical and phy- sical systems that are found on them.

Finally, the moon landings have permitted man actually to study the composition and structure of some of the materials from at least one extraterrestrial body. Enough has been found to permit the firm conclusion that the earth and its moon are of vastly different structure and therefore could not have the same celestial evolutionary 'ancestor.'"8

"To the surprise of scientists, the chemical makeup of the moon rocks is distinctly different from that of rocks on earth. This difference implies that the moon formed under different conditions, . . . and means that any theory on the origin of the planets now will have to create the earth and the moon in different ways." 9

This important discovery should be taught in the classrooms. The moon and the earth have different structures and therefore different origins!

IS THE EARTH OLD OR YOUNG?

The fact that erroneous results can be and often are derived from dating techniques has been experimentally verified. For example, living snails have been dated as 2,300 years old by the carbon-14 method. 10 Wood taken from growing trees has been dated by the carbon-14 method to be 10,000 years old. 11 Hawaiian lava flows which are known to be less than 200 years old, have been dated by the potassium-argon method at up to 3 billion years old! 12

In his book, "The Collapse of Evolution", Dr. Scott M. Huse says,

"Considering the unreliability of these dating techniques, there is no valid scientific reason why one should place any conf- idence in them especially since there is such an immense amount of extrapolation involved. Consequently, we will not consider other process which can also be used to measure time and thus date the earth." 13

Dr. Huse continues,

"A significant amount of research has been accumulated which suggests that the earth and solar system are relatively young and not ancient as evolutionists have assumed. The next two processes are usually selectively screened out by evolutionists, who choose to ignore or discard them, because they indicate a relatively young age for the earth and solar system."

The Earth's Magnetic Field

The strength of the earth's magnetic field has been measured for well over a century. This provides scientists with exception- ally good records. In an important recent study, Dr. Thomas G. Barnew has shown that the strength of the earth's magnetic field is decaying exponentially at a rate corresponding to a half-life of 1,400 years. That is to say, 1,400 years ago the magnetic field of the earth was twice as strong as it is now. If we extrapolate back as far as 10,000 years, we find that the earth would have had a magnetic field as strong as that of a magnetic star!

This is, of course, highly improbable, if not impossible. Thus, based on the present decay of the earth's magnetic field, 10,000 years appears to be an upper limit for the age of the earth.

Finally evolutionists believe that the earth's magnetic field is due to circulating electric currents in its core. If we extrapolate back- ward about 20,000 years, we find that the estimated heat produc- ed by the currents would have melted the earth. Clearly, the tes- timony of the earth's magnetic field is strongly in favor of a relative- ly young earth, not an ancient one." 14

Meteoritic Dust And The Age Of The Earth

On the subject of meteoritic dust Dr. Huse says,

"Scientists have known for some time now that cosmic dust particles enter the earth's atmosphere from space at an essentially constant rate. Eventually these dust particles settle down to the earth's surface. Hans Petterson has made accurate measurements of this influx, and has determined that the earth receives about 10 million tons per year. Now, if it is true that the earth is around 5 billions years old, as evolutionists insist, there should be a layer of meteoritic dust that is about 182 feet thick all over the world! No such dust layer exists anywhere, of course. Even on the moon where it should at least be this thick, little sign of it was found by the astronauts (about 1/8 of an inch). The fear that the astro- nauts would sink into such a layer of meteoritic dust over 20 feet deep when they landed on the moon proved to be com- pletely unwarranted.

Evolutionary geologists might be tempted to argue that erosion- al and mixing processes can account for the absence of the meteoritic dust layer. However, this explanation is unsatisfac- tory. It is easily refuted because the composition of meteoritic dust is very distinctive, particularly in its content of nickel and iron. For example, nickel is a very rare element in the earth's crust and even more scarce in the ocean. But the average nickel content of meteoritic dust is approximately 300 times as great as in the earth's crust! Calculations based on the relatively small amount of nickel found in the earth's crust and ocean indicate an age for the earth of only a few thousand years." 15

A further blow to the dating techniques was presented by Dr. John L. Anderson at the 161th American Chemical Society meeting in Los Angeles, CA , USA. He provided information from established experiments that showed the Carbon-14 decay rate actually could have varied in the past to such an extent as to render the ages invalid!

Petroleum And Natural Gas

Petroleum and natural gas are contained at high pressures in underground reservoirs by relatively impermeable cap rock. In many cases, the pressures are extremely high. Calculations based upon the measured pressures could not be maintained for much longer than 10,000 years in many instances. Thus, the generalization that such fossil-fuel deposits have been confined for millions of years, have not leaked out through their cap rock, is preposterous. 16

Furthermore, recent experiments have demonstrated conclusively that the conversion of marine and vegetal matter into oil and gas can be achieved in a surprisingly short time. For example, plant-derived material has been converted into a good grade of petroleum in as little as 20 minutes under the proper temperature and pressure conditions. Wood and other cellulosic material have also been converted into coal-like substances in just a few hours. These experiments prove that the formation of coal, oil, and gas did not necessarily require millions of years to form as evolutionary geologists have assumed and taught.17 That is the problem with the evolutionists. They have built their house upon complete assumptions!

We creationists believe that the great coal deposits of the world are the remains of the world after being destroyed by the flood in the days of Noah. This catastrophic interpretation is further supported by the presence of polystrata fossils*** in the coal beds which indicate rapid formation. Also, the type of plants involved and the texture of these deposits testify of turbulent waters, not a stagnant swamp.

Evolutionists propose that coal was formed millions of years before man evolved. However, human skeletons and artifacts, such as intricately structured gold chains, have been found in coal deposits. In Genesis 4 we learn that metal working was already highly developed. The flood of Noah's time buried the world in the layers of mud that later became the top-most rocks of the earth's outer crust.

Then there are the fissures found in many areas of the world where animals from dry climates, wet tropical forests, and cold areas are all buried together. Only water could have transported the many thousands there to be deposited for us to find later. Even Woolly Mammoths, Saber Toothed Tigers, and Human have been found together in crevices of the mountains as if they were fleeing to higher ground!

Or what of the Mammoths that were found by the millions that were so suddenly frozen that some still had their tongues out with the vegetation still on it and not damaged, except for being suddenly frozen! Even the hair, skin, and food undigested in the stomachs. What clamity could have frozen them so suddenly? Most of them so suddenly frozen that they were left still standing! How about the earth titling suddenly under the weight of the water of Noah's time? Isn't the earth still tilted? The Age Of The Earth By Looking At Our Population Evolutionists believe that mankind has been on the earth for at least one million years. Creationists believe that mankind has been here for about 6,000 years. So which possibility is true? Dr. Huse continues,

"Dr. Henry M. Morris has calculated that an average growth of only 1/2% per year, which is 1/4 of the actual rate, would yield the present population in just 4,000 years. This allows ample room for periods of time when, be- cause of war or disease, the population growth rates were far below the normal averages. Dr. Morris points out that it is statistically inconceivable that the present population could have resulted from one million years of evolutionary history. Even if the population increased at only 1/2 % per year for a million years, the number of people in the pre- sent generation would exceed 10 to the 2,100th power! To further appreciate the utter absurdness of the evolution model you need to know that only 10 to the 130th power electrons can be packed into the entire known universe!" 18

This, of course, is an utter impossibility. Evolution is again proven to be false! Just because people believe in something does not make it true. Facts do not lie, but people do!

The Rotation Of The Earth

The rotation of the earth is gradually slowing due to the gravitational drag forces of the sun, moon, and other factors. If the earth is billions of years old, as evolutionary geologists insist, and it has been slowing down uniformly, then its present rotation should be zero! Furthermore, if we extrapolate backwards for several billion years, the centrifugal force would have been so great that the continents would have been sent to the equatorial regions and the overall shape of the earth would have been a flat pancake. But, as is commonly known, the shape of the earth is spherical; its continents are not confined to the equatorial regions, and it continues to rotate on its axis at approximately 1,000 miles per hour at the equator. The obvious conclusion is that the earth is not billions of years old, but only a few thousand! Evolution, wrong again! 19

As more and more evidence is gained about the universe the evolutionists involved in acquiring this information are dropping their theories of evolution. Dr. Sir Fred Hoyle has dropped his own widely-believed theory and, although not a Christian, does believe in God. The leaders have all dropped the big-Bang theory. So where are evolution's leaders now? They are there, but they are keeping very quiet as they try to figure out another way to get around the judgment of God upon sin in this world!

* To understand how huge this wall is you must realize that light travels at the speed of 186,282.397 [299,792.458 kilometers] miles per second. To better understand this extraordinary speed you need to realize that light would travel around the world 7.451 times in only one second! At this speed light would travel 11,176,943.82 miles [18,140,179.819 kilometers] in only one minute! In one hour light would travel 670,616,629 miles [1,088,410,789 kilometers]! In one day light travels 16,094,799,096 miles [26,121,858,932.8 kilometers]. By now the size of this Great Wall is beginning to become too much for our comprehension even though we can see and measure it! If you were 20 years old and could travel from one end of The Great Wall to the other at the speed of light, and you started on January first 1995, by the end of the first year you would have traveled 5,874,601,660,180 miles [9,535,478,494,472.14 kilometers - This is exactly 234,984,066.4 trips around the world in just the first year!] For you to travel the length of this wall at the speed of light, you would need to live an additional 499,999,999 years of life! Read on, because a few months later astronomers discovered a series of walls, evenly spaced one behind the other, and so big that they make The Great Wall look small!

** God placed humans on only one planet and this planet is the only one capable of supporting life as we know it.

*** Polystrata fossils are usually trees that are standing up or even sometimes up-side-down through millions of years of different rock layers [Strata] or coal. Did they live for this long or did a flood pour tons of mud around them which later, under great pressure, formed rocks? Of course, they did not live this long, so the Geological column is completely wrong!

CHAPTER III

MONKEY BUSINESS!

What fool would think that his ancestors were monkeys? I remember seeing a cartoon in a magazine or newspaper once of two monkeys in a tree looking down at two queer fags boogering each other. One monkey looked over to the other one and said, "Even we will not do that." So where does this put the queer in the evolutionary chain? What he does is degenerative, not normal, and perverse! God's creation was not Adam and Steve, but Adam and Eve. Monkeys will not do things that are unnatural!

Although the primates are supposed to have evolved from an insectivorous ancestor, there are no series of transitional forms connecting primates to insectivores. Elwyn Simons, one of the world's leading experts in the field of primates, must admit that, "In spite of recent finds, the time and place of origin of order primates remains shrouded in mystery." 1

We can see, at the very outset that, according to evolutionists, the true origin of the man cannot be discovered or found in the fossil record.

Since it cannot be proven, then what are all of these monkey men doing standing in the science museums of the world? Well, I will tell you the truth. They are all the figments of evolutionists' imaginations. For example how can you make a monkey man from a pig's tooth? Well, if you were the evolutionist that concocted Nebraska Man you could. Not only did a scientist [?] construct the complete skeleton from a pig's tooth, but he actually put meat, facial features, muscle, and hair on the skeleton. The same thing as is in your local museum. Yes, all untrue. Lies, made up lies.

According to evolutionists the South American or New World monkeys gave rise to the Old World monkeys. Then the Old World monkeys gave rise to the ape and man. But there are no transitional forms between the South American monkeys and their presumed ancestors. Thus the evolutionist A. S. Romer has to agree by stating,

"Little is known, unfortunately, of the fossil history of the South American monkeys," 2

"When these animals first appear in the fossil record they are just what they are today - monkeys!" 3

* "When Romer is asked to give his opinion of the origin of the chimpanzee and gorilla he says,

'Our knowledge of the fossil history of these higher apes and of presumed human ancestors on this level is tantalizing poor.'"

"What can anthropologists say about man's ultimate origin from his imagined ape-like ancestor? Pilbeam says,

'It has come to be rather generally assumed, albeit in a rather vague fashion, the pre-Pleistocene hominid ancestry was rooted somewhere in the Dryopithecinae.'"

When a scientist is forced to 'assume' something 'in a rather vague fashion,' it is obvious that he is resorting to wholly unscientific methods to establish what he cannot do by the usual accepted scientific method."

Most people should know is that anthropologists and paleontologists are subject to the same desires for fame as the rest of us. They can lie, cheat, steal, even murder [As in the case of Dr. Dian Fossey by her colleage in order to steal her research material to claim as his own], and steal another's research in order to gain fame!

With this in mind let us deal with some of the more famous instances of the products of lies.

Java Man

"A Dutch physician by the name of Dubois became convinced that the "missing link" in man's evolutionary origin would be found in the East Indies. He joined the Dutch army and got an assignment to Java, where he began his search. In 1891, along the bank of the Solo River near the village of Trinil, he found a skull-cap. The skull-cap had a very low sloping forehead with heavy brow ridges. The cranial capacity was estimated by Dubois to be about 900 cc, about 2/3 of that for modern man, but it is impossible to determine cranial capacity from a skull-cap alone.

About a year later and 50 feet from where he had found the skull-cap, Dubois found a human thigh bone. Dubois assumed, without any real justification, that the skull-cap and human thigh bone were from the same individual. He placed them together and called the association Pithecanthropus erectus [erect ape-man]. At about the same time Dubois found two molar teeth which he included in his original announcement. In 1898 he discovered a tooth which he believed should also be included with the first finds. The collection came to be know as Java Man. Evolutionists have estimated the age of the fossils to be about 500,000 years old.

Dubois exhibited these fossils at the International Congress of Zoology at Leyden in 1895 [Now he has fame, right?]. Authorities greeted Dubois' find with considerable skepticism and divided opinion. British zoologists tended to view the remains as human, the Germans as those of an ape, and the French as those of something between ape and man.

What they all did not know is that Dubois had concealed the fact that he had also discovered at nearby Wadjak and at approximately the same level, two human skulls [Know as the Wadjak skulls] with a cranial capacity of about 1550-1600 cc, somewhat above the present human average. To have revealed this fact at that time would have rendered it difficult, if not impossible, for his Java Man to have been accepted as a "missing link". It was not until 1922 when a similar discovery was about to be announced, that Dubois revealed that he had possessed the Wadjak skulls for over 30 years! His failure to reveal this find to the scientific world can only be considered as an act of dishonesty and calculated to obtain acceptance of Pithecanthropus as an ape-man.

Before his death, but after he had convinced most evolutionists as to the man-like affinity of Pithecanthropus, Dubois declared that his Java Man was nothing more than a large gibbon!" He admitted he had lied and cheated to gain fame and make money! Java Man was a complete hoax! Are you still taught that Java Man was in man's evolutionary history? You are being taught something that the inventor of which said, over 72 years ago, was a lie! Now to the Chinese people's claim to fame. [?]

Peking Man

"If one accepts uncritically the evidence usually present in books on Peking Man, the case for the existence of near-man, or ape-man would seem to be established. For example the skull model and flesh reconstructions based on this model reveal a remarkable resemblance to modern man and could hardly be called anything less that human. But a close examination of the reports related to Peking Man, however reveal a tangled web of contradictions, highly subjective treatment of the data, a peculiar and unnatural condition of the fossil bones, and the loss of essentially all of the fossil material. If you went into a court of law without any evidence would you win or loose? Peking Man's fossils have disappeared and probably because the fraud was close to being found out!

At Choukoutien, about 25 miles from Peking, China, in the 1920's and 1930's, were found fragments of about 30 skulls, 11 mandibles [lower jaws] and about 147 teeth. Except for a very few and highly fragmentary remains of limb bones, nothing else from these creatures were found. One of the initial finds was a single tooth, and without waiting for any further evidence, Dr. Davidson Black, Professor of Anatomy at Union Medical College, Peking, declared that this tooth established evidence for the existence of an ancient man-like creature, in China. Since he had made the claim for a missing link from one tooth is there any doubt that he would find nothing but missing links in further digging? How can a man, no matter how great, declare, on the evidence of only one tooth, that he had found a missing link in the evolutionary origin of mankind?

Later all evidence [?] for Peking Man disappeared. Nothing remains today. Someone destroyed it. The only ones that had control of it were the evolutionists. Why would they destroy their own evidence....unless it had been fabricated!

We will now look at what Dr. Patrick O'Connell had to say about the Peking man. He was in China during all of the time the excavations at Choukoutien were being carried out, including the Japanese occupation and for several years after the Japanese departure. He became convinced that the public had not been given all of the facts and that no "missing link" had been found at Choukoutien. He published his conclusions in his book, "Science of Today and the Problems of Genesis". O'Connell believes the disappearance of Peking Man's remains was by design rather than by accident of war. The Japanese did not interfere with the work at Choukoutien, and Weidenreich and Pei continued the excavations until Weidenreich left in 1940. O'Connell believes that Pei may have destroyed the fossils before the Chinese government returned to Peking in order to conceal the fact that the plaster models of Peking Man did not correspond to the actual details of the fossils!"

When a display was organized in 1954 in China on the bones, animals, etc. found at Choukoutien only the Peking Man was missing!

"In his book O'Connell points out that little attention has been paid to the fossil remains of 10 modern humans found at the same exact site!

After finding ape skulls, Davidson Black claimed to have found the rest of the ape-man, but descriptions of the partial skulls found and later clay models differed very much.

Teilhard de Chardin said, 'Peking Man resembles the great apes closely.' " So what is the difference?

By 1936 instead of being like an ape they have changed to look very human. What we have here is a slow changing of the way the Peking Man actually looked and by 1936 he is what you see today in the Science Museums of the world. The only evolution was from the first tooth until 1936! Tsk, tsk! Pure fabrication on the part of the paleontologists!

"O'Connell concludes that Peking Man consisted of skulls of either large monkeys or baboons killed and eaten by workers at an ancient quarry. There does seem to be considerable evidence that a lime-burning site was buried under rock and debris at Choukoutien. Whether monkey or baboon skulls, they were monkey-like according to Boule. Boule and others had leaned toward the belief that Peking Man had been killed and eaten by true man. O'Connell terms the representation of Peking Man, "as a near-man", an outright fraud. We believe at the very least a combination of prejudice, preconceived ideas, and a zeal for fame have been responsible for the elevating of a monkey to the status of an ape-like man. This is the same combination that produced Nebraska Man from a pig's tooth, Piltdown Man from a modern ape's jaw, and Leakey's East African Ape-Man from a Southern Ape!"4

Nebraska Man

About the same time as the Peking Man was produced you have the Nebraska Man and the Piltdown man.

In 1922, a tooth was discovered in western Nebraska, USA which was declared by Henry Fairfield Osborn to be the missing link. Dr. Osborn was one of the most eminent paleontologists of that day!

Dr. Osborn and his colleagues could not decide whether the original owner of this tooth should be designated as an ape-like man or a man-like ape. He was commonly called Nebraska Man. These paleontologists then took the one tooth and built a jaw, then built a skull, then a complete skeleton. They then placed facial features and put the meat upon the thing and in the "London Illustrated News" showed him looking very similar to modern man. In 1927 after further collecting and studies had been carried out, it was decided that Nebraska Man was neither a ape-like man or a man-like ape, but a pig! Yes, these dummies had taken a pig's tooth and constructed a complete man! Tsk, tsk!

Piltdown Man

In 1912, Arthur Smith Woodward, Director of the British Museum, and Charles Dawson, a medical doctor and amateur paleontologist, announced the discovery of a lower jaw and part of a skull. Dawson had recovered these specimens from a gravel pit near Piltdown, England. The jawbone appeared very ape-like except for the teeth, which seemed to show the type of wear expected for humans rather than that for apes. The skull, on the other hand, appeared to very man-like.

He was named Dawn Man, but became popularly know as Piltdown Man. He was judged to be about 500,000 years old. Although a few experts, such as Boule and Henry Fairfield Osborn, objected to the association of this very ape-like jaw with a human-like skull, the consensus of the world's greatest authorities was that Piltdown Man was indeed an authentic link in the evolution of man.

However, by 1950 a method had become available for sometimes determining age to some fossil bones. This method is dependent on the amount of fluoride absorbed by bones from the soil. When the Piltdown Man bones were tested it was discovered that the jawbone contained practically no fluoride and thus was no fossil at all. It was hardly older than the day it was found! The skull did have some fluoride and it was judged to be a few thousand years old, not the 500,000 as previously stated!

With this beginning to look like a fraud a more critical examination was performed upon the bones. It was discovered that the bones had been treated with iron salts to make them look old, and scratch marks were detected on the teeth, indicating that they had been filed! In other words, Piltdown Man was a complete fraud! A modern ape's jaw and a human skull had been made to resemble an ape-man, and the forgery has succeeded in fooling most of the world's greatest experts.

According to M. Bowden,

". . . and the person responsible for placing the faked fossils in the pit at Piltdown was Teihard de Chardin S.J.." 5

Teilhard was the author of several philosophy books and plac- ed the evidence to help evolution. Philosophy teachers are well known to believe and promote the cult of evolution.

You should know that the Piltdown Man was viewed in stately museums and studied in major textbooks for several generations. What will today's "Facts" of human evolution turn out to be in the near future? Proven to be more lies from people faking evidence in order to gain fame and riches for themselves!

This demonstrates that many modern scientists are prone to find what they want to find even when it is not there!

Neanderthal Man

Neanderthal Man was first discovered over a century ago in a cave in the Neanderthal Valley near Dusseldorf, Germany. He was portrayed as a semi-erect brutish sub-human. Later as scientific techniques improved it was discovered that he was quite human with a cranial capacity even exceeding that of the normal modern man and stooped over due to arthritis. He was a human and if walking down the street today in a business suit would not be given any special attention.

F. Lucy

The credit for this discovery [?] goes to D.C. Johanson. His team discovered 40% of a skeleton during digging from 1972 to 1977 in Ethiopia. She was said to be a missing link. The "National Geographic" magazine paid for the research and thus got the publicity from the digging, and said in an article, by Johanson, in Dec. 1977:

"The angle of the thigh bone and the flattened surface at its knee joint end . . . proved she walked on two legs."

What you were not told is that the knee joint end of the femur was severely crushed; therefore, Johanson's conclusion is pure speculation; guess work! Anatomist Charles Onard, using a computer technique for analysis of skeletal relationships, has concluded that Lucy did not walk upright, as least not in the same manner as humans. In this connection, it should be mentioned that the chimpanzee spends a considerable amount of time walking upright. Thus, there is no valid scientific basis for a conclusion that Lucy was anything more than some kind of monkey or chimpanzee!

Lucy has other problems:

  1. Almost all of the evolutionists that investigated the 40% skeleton have changed their minds at least once or more times!
  2. No one has yet found a skeleton that had a skull! Yes, parts from different areas of the dig were put together to form Lucy! She was not found with a skull that could definitely be said to be her own. How many of the tribes do you think ate and killed monkeys? This alone would disqualify this find from being given any serious accreditation because of the monkey skeletons laying around.
  3. Drs. Stern and Susman point out the many ape-like features of Lucy such as: A. The hands and feet. B. The heavy muscled foot with the proper curve needed for climbing. C. Long curved hands with heavy muscles needed for climbing and living in trees. D. The angle of the shoulder blades showing that the muscles were attached in such a way as you would find in a tree dwelling monkey. E. The shape and angularity of the pelvic bone shows the animal to be ape, not human. 6

Question: What walks like a monkey, has heavy muscled curved hands and feet like a monkey, has shoulder blades like a monkey, and a pelvic angle showing that it lived in trees like monkeys? Well, if you are an evolutionist you might think man! Tsk, tsk! Come on, there must be a limit to how stupid a person can be!

Richard Leakey and His Lake Turkana Specimens

His parents, both of whom earned doctorates, were famous evolutionists very well known to the scientific world. His father, Louis became famous for his excavations in the Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania. His great fame came from finding a skull, which he claimed was of a human ancestor and was 2,000,000 years old! Later Louis Leakey, himself, acknowledged the skull was that of a gibbon, not a man after all. Nor was it nearly 2 million years old. Other finds in the same strata were carbon dated to a few thousand years old, not exceeding 10,000 years. Time Magazine was one place Dr. Leakey admitted that his finds were wrong, but a film had been made and was shown at least twice in the United States still making the original false claims. Yes, even after the discoverer admitted it was all untrue.

Richard Leakey, though, only got fame through a series of skulls and partial skeletons that his team found, though not he himself, in the area of Lake Turkana, in Kenya, just south of the Ethiopian border from 1972 through 1978. Leakey never went to college let alone earned any kind of degree. His fame came on the find of another man, Bernard Ngeneo, one of the Kenyans in Leakey's team.

His find, like all of the others before it, have now been scientifically laid in the grave beside the other false claims.

For example:

  1. He had now learned how to move quickly to fame by using the mass media. The media wants to sell newspapers and T.V. time slots to advertisers. The only way to get people to watch is to come up with something new. As in new programs every year or so. He called a press conference and made unfounded statements without any scientific investigation having been done at all. Now he was famous!
  2. Afterwards when given time to examine the fossils Drs. Charles Oxnard and F. Peter Lisowski found that: A. The reconstruction of the foot bones had been done in such a way as to make them look like they belonged to a human, when they actually did not fit together well until they were moved into their proper positions and then were found to be those of a monkey!

Since the evolutionists all say that man's earliest ancestors were on the earth about 2 to 3 million years ago, what do you do when you find a perfectly preserved human skull, footprints, and sandal prints in rock that the evolutionists claim is 7,000,000 years old[ The Pliocene age]. What do you think they did? They covered up the truth and tried to keep it from being printed! Liars! Better yet, what do you think the evolutionists did when they found sandal prints, footprints and human forged iron bands in Cambrian rock [Which is supposed to be 600 million years old, according to them!]? After all, this is, according to evolutionists, 597 million years before man was on the earth! They tried to keep the information from going public. If you were honest you would realize that the way the evolutionists date things is wrong and that man and dinosaur were living together as recently as 4,000 years ago [The time of the worldwide flood]!

The Plant World [Botany]

Since there is more plant life than human life upon the earth, and if evolution is correct, there should be intermediate forms between the plants. Yes, missing links in the plant world. That should be easy to find.

With all of this in mind concerning the lies and frauds that have been committed what would an honest botanical evolutionist say? Professor E. J. H. Corner of the Cambridge University botany school said,

"But I still think that to be unprejudiced, the fossil record of plants is in favor of special creation." 6

There you have it. An eminent evolutionist saying that God created everything!

In their book on the principles of paleontology, the two evolutionists, Raup and Stanley say,

"Unfortunately, the origins of most higher categories are shrouded in mystery; commonly new higher categories appear abruptly in the fossil record without evidence of transitional forms." 7

What he means is that he does not find any missing links in the plant world. The plants just suddenly appear! They did not evolve!

DuNouy, another evolutionist, has described the evidence in this way,

"In brief, each group, order, or family seems to be born suddenly and we hardly ever find the forms which link them to the preced- ing strain. When we discover them they are already completely differentiated. Not only do we find practically no transitional forms, but in general it is impossible to authentically connect a new group with an ancient one." 8

Dr. Olson said,

"A third fundamental aspect of the record is somewhat different. Many new groups of plants and animals suddenly appear, apparently without any close ancestors. Most major groups of organisms and even classes have appeared in this way . . . The fossil record which has produced the problem, is not much help in its solution . . . . Most zoologists and the majority of paleontologists feel that the breaks and the abrupt appearances of new groups can be explained by the incompleteness of the record, but some disagree and believe that theses events tell a story not in accord with the theory [of evolution] and not seen among living organisms." 9

These are plain admissions that the missing links in plants life, animal life, and human life cannot be found. Especially admitting, that everything suddenly appeared; that the more fossils they find the more questions arise about their evolutionary theory. Instead of finding answers they find more problems with their theory! This means the more that they find, the more proof they find for creation by design! Yes, looks like the Bible is right when it states that God created all life! Evolution is a cruel hoax!

They even admit again that they cannot find any missing links for any of the animal life forms. The famous evolutionist, Dr. Clark says,

"No matter how far back we go in the fossil record or previous animal life upon earth, we find no trace of any animal forms which are intermediate betwen the various major groups." 10

Later on in the same book he says,

"Since we have not the slightest evidence, either among the living or the fossil animals, of any intergrading types following the major groups, it is a fair supposition that there never have been any such intergrading types."

Even the famous horse series commonly shown in some science museums is false. In 1993 evolutionists publicly admitted that the many small horses were not one group evolving upward into larger sized horses, but were all along, different families of horses! This is admitted years before by the evolutionists when Dr. Du- Nouy, one of their leading spokesmen says,

"We find that the transitional forms between major types are missing. Each one of these intermediaries seems to have appeared suddenly, and it has not yet been possible, because of the lack of fossils, to reconstitute the passage between these intermediaries.......The continuity, we surmise, may never be established by facts." 11

To make up for the total lack of evidence in the fossil record for transitional forms [Intermediates, missing links] some evolutionists have went so far, as to be crazy, by saying that since new types suddenly appear, without any missing links, maybe a dinosaur laid an egg and a bird hatched from it instead of evolving! The height of stupidity at work is when a modern evolutionist tries to think up ways to justify his position when all the evidence in the fossil records point to a sudden creation of all animal and plant life!

The major predictions by the creationists were:

  1. The abrupt appearance of highly complex and diverse forms of life with no evidence of ancestral forms.
  2. The sudden appearance of basic plant and animal kinds or the "created kinds" of Genesis, without evidence of transitional forms between the basic kinds.

The fossil record reveals:

  1. The abrupt appearance of a great variety of highly complex forms of life. No evolutionary evidence for ancestors for these animals can be found anywhere on the earth.
  2. The sudden appearance of higher categories of plants and animals with no evidence of transitional forms between these basic kinds.

Not only does the fossil record provide excellent evidence for special creation [God creating everything as the Bible says], but the fossil record, at the same time, shows that evolution could not possibly have occurred! I will close this chapter quoting from Kerkut, who is not a creationist. He says,

"There is a theory that all the living forms in the world have arisen from a single source which itself came from an inorganic form. This theory can be called the 'General Theory of Ev- olution' and the evidence that supports it is not sufficiently strong to allow us to consider it as anything more than a working hypothesis." 12

It is difficult to add anything to that: plainly admitting that evolution does not even rate enough to be a theory let-alone a fact!

Here we have it from the mouths of the evolutionists themselves; admitting that evolution cannot be proven and some even saying that special creation [God creating] has the most evidence!

Question: What do you get when you cross a donkey with a rock? An evolutionists with the stubbornness of a jackass and the intelligence of a rock! Tsk, Tsk.

Question: If you believe something that cannot be proven, isn't that faith? Doesn't faith constitute a religion or a cult?

CHAPTER IV

A FEW LAST FACTS

According to Leakey, and a few others, man has been around about 3 to 10 million years. Most evolutionists [They are divided in their beliefs.] believe man has been around 1 million years. We will give them the benefit of a doubt [They will certainly need it] and use Leakey's figure of 3 million years or so.

Evolutionists say that Dinosaurs died out, disappeared, about 65 to 70 million years ago. This means that dinosaurs had been dead at least 62 million years before man's earliest ancestor appeared, if you take Richard Leakey's figures as fact.

Enough proof has already been given in this book to show anyone, who is honest, that evolution is not true, but what if dinosaurs and humans lived at the same time? If this can be proven then the complete time table, on which evolution is based, is thrown out, and with it, evolution!

An authentic report came out of Russia, "1500 dinosaur imprints had been found, with what appeared to be human imprints in the same strata." 1 According to modern evolutionists, man's earliest ancestors were on the earth 62 to 65 million years after the dinosaur died! How could the tracks have been found together?

A few miles away from the many dinosaur footprints at Glen Rose, Texas was found a human skeleton of a woman that was 210 cm tall [7 foot tall]! 2

Also In a Cretaceous limestone formation near Glen Rose, Texas, are to be found some remarkable footprints. They are the tracks of giant men! You can go look at them for yourself. [But when you arrive, ask one of the old timers to tell you where to look. As soon as they are exposed to the elements, they gradually begin eroding away.]

Glen Rose is located in north central Texas, about 40 miles southwest of the Fort Worth-Dallas metropolitan area. The area has little rainfall; and, for several months each year the Paluxy River is completely dry. From time to time the river changes its course. This occurs at those times when the quiet river becomes a raging torrent. Because the river has such a steep slope [a drop of 17 feet -51.8 dm- per mile], it is the second swiftest river in Texas and quite dangerous in time of heavy rainfall. It was after the terrible flood of 1908, when the river rose 27 feet [82.3 dm], that the prints began to be noticed. The new riverbed brought to view a flat rock bottom with animal and human prints in what was once wet mud which had turned to stone.

I, Dr. Ron Powell, the author of this small work, would like to take time out to give you the following very, very, important information and then shall continue. This same information and more was published in "The Great Dinosaur Mistake" in the early 1990s, but I was somewhat apprehensive about using it in this edition as I did in my original first edition of "Evolution: The Truth?". The present situation with the dinosaur and human tracks now is that the elements or possibly someone has changed the human tracks to the degree that they cannot for certain be claimed to be human tracks.

Now though, the reason I have decided to use this information of the finding of dinosaur and human tracks together is that in searching the internet I came across the same information being discovered and used in another book many decades before Evolution: The Truth? and The Great Dinosaur Mistake were printed! This was an, on the site, personal eye witness account, [when the tracks were easily identifiable as human], of the Paleontologist and evolutionist Dr. Roland T. Bird!

Now, continuing on: Clifford L. Burdick, a mining geologist, and *Roland T. Bird, a paleontologist with the American Museum of Natural History, carefully examined and reported on the foot- prints.

Dr. Bird said, after examining the footprints for himself,

"Yes, they apparently are real enough. Real as the rock could be . . . the strangest things of their kind I had ever seen. On the surface of each was splayed the near-likeness of a human foot, perfect in every detail. But each imprint was 15 inches long!" 3

The present writer is over six feet 1 inch [18.4 dm] tall and has a foot that is 11 inches [27.95 cm] in length. The Glen Rose tracks are 15 inches [38.1 cm] long, and were probably made by people 8.3 feet [25.38 dm] tall. During his research at the Paluxy Riverbed near Glen Rose, Bird found not only
