yawn
another witless ramble that looks like a paste job from one of the less credible creatortionista sites.
care to discuss creationist hoaxes that continue to be perpetuated on the gullible believers even after being shown to be hoaxes and even disregarded by some creationist sites?
expect a barrage on this one. I have to be away for another week now and cannot take the time to have fun with it: I'll have to catch up later.

Bonobos apes walk like men
Bonobos apes walk (and behave sexually) like humans, and yet the early australopithicus was better adapted for walking than they are (proportions of leg and arm bones, arrangement of footbones).
How do you explain australopithicus as an ape with those facts?
just curious.
also curious to see how you explain all the other australopithicus fossils that compliment the lucy skeleton without showing bones that contradict it -- which would be the case if it was a pastiche as you claim (or use creatortionista websites to claim). for more on this see the Evolution: Humans: Riddle of the Bones site from PBS.
enjoy.

Re: Ramapithecus holding hands with modern man.(S)
and how was the grave of the modern man dated? or was that conveniently left out of the information from your source?
one easy reason why: burial. dig down, plant the body, fill, and voila.
yawn.

Re: Ramapithecus holding hands with modern man.(S)
How old? The burial could go back some 30,000 years easily. Give the citation for the archaeological report\article on the discovery so we can see what the evidence is.
{added by edit} oops, looks like PaulK already did:

funny that the facts match my post and not yours, eh?
enjoy.

Re: Ramapithecus holding hands with modern man.(S)
Ironic isn't it that this typical creatortionista misrepresentation of the dating methods is just not true, it doesn't address the validation of dating techniques by many correlations -- to argue this point please go to {Age Correlations and an Old Earth} ...
(see http://EvC Forum: Age Correlations and an Old Earth)
... preferably after reading it -- and it doesn't address the fact that standard procedure is to use at least two different methods to date things: this is not possible in your circular scenario, thus invalidating it on its own premis, independant of the validity of the dating techniques themselves.
I believe that is called failed reasoning.
