Hominids

               Evolutionists have created a family within their taxonomic 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 apes 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 ago
               Swanscombe                   Homo sapiens                 .25 - .6 MY (million years)
               Pithecanthropus erectus      ape - like                   .5 MY
               Australopithecus africanus   ape – like                   4.4 MY
               Zinjanthropus                ape-like                     1.75 MY
               Skull 1470                   man-like                     2.8 MY
               Ethiopian 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
               man-like skull and a jaw 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 that 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.  Artists with amazing talents
                                                               and ingenious minds sculpted them from their
                                                               preconceived ideas about how man evolved from
                                                               an ape.  Next time you go to the natural history

                                                               display of an ape-man, demonstrating the
                                                               imaginative minds of those who deny the fact that
                                                               God created man on the 6  day of creation, fully

                                                               could multiply and fill the earth.
