From the viewpoint of a Christian who accepts the Biblical account of creation in Genesis, one would
expect that many creatures of God’s creation would have a lot of similarities. God created the eye from
simple to very complex. Placing similar eyes into the various animals He created validates that there
was ONE creator and designer of the eye. His
designed worked for both man and animal.
Homology illustrates that the same God created
everything, and it was very good. Once God decided
on a blueprint, He used the same blueprint within
his Creation.
Hominids
Evolutionists have created a family within their
taxonomical system called Hominidae. In this family,
they include humans (Homo sapiens) and their fossil
ancestors and also, in recent systems, at least some
of the great apes. Throughout the last 170 years,
various finds of skulls, partial skulls, jaw bones, and
even teeth have been acclaimed as the missing link
between ape and man. Here is a list of hominids,
and how old the evolutionists dated them:
Specimen Classification Assigned Age
Neanderthal Homo sapiens (man) 35 – 70 thousand years
Swanscombe Homo sapiens .25 - .6 MY (million years)
Pithecanthropus erectus ape - like .5 MY
Australopithecus africanus ape – like 4.4 MY
Zinjanithropus ape-like 1.75 MY
Skull 1470 man-like 2.8 MY
Ethiopean jaw man-like 3-4 MY
Castenedolo Homo sapiens 2 + MY
Do you see a problem? Notice that the apparent age of
the specimens doesn’t match the evolutionary tree. One
skull and a jaw that are man-like are dated older than
some of the ape-like specimens in the line of human
evolution. If you carefully examine the supposed “missing
links” between the evolution of apes to men, you basically
come up with two classifications. The fossil was a man or
man-like or the fossil was an ape or ape-like.
Let’s go back to the introduction where there were
models of busts of various specimens who evolved from
ape to man. The only models that had reliable fossils to
support them were the first one, the ape, and the last
one, the man. Artist with amazing talents and ingenious
