Re: You Can't Debate What You Don't Understand
Another evidence that clearly agrees with them not being a bipedal hominid is found in(science news april,8 2000 p.225)that proves they have wrist capable of locking the hands in place during knuckle walking.
OK, let's look at Richmond and Strait.
"Fossil evidence demonstrates that by 4.1 million years ago, and perhaps earlier, hominids exhibited adaptations to bipedal walking ... Here we present evidence that fossils attributed to Australopithecus anamensis (KNM-ER 20419) and A. afarensis (AL 288-1) retain specialized wrist morphology associated with knuckle-walking. This distal radial morphology differs from that of later hominids and non-knuckle-walking anthropoid primates, suggesting that knuckle-walking is a derived feature of the African ape and human clade."
Richmond and Strait are not saying that these australopithecines aren't facultatively bipedal. On the contrary, they know that they are. They're saying that they're bipeds retaining knuckle-walking features, reflecting their knuckle-walking ancestry.
Oh look, intermediate forms!

BTW, where are you getting this rubbish from? Obviously you haven't read the papers yourself, so who's been lying to you about what they say?

Re: Crater Creep
For the last 150 years, the age of the Earth, as assumed by evolutionists, has been doubling at roughly a rate of once every 15 years. In fact, since 1900 this age has multiplied by a factor of 100!
As you know this to be a lie, perhaps you should stop reciting it.

Re: Moon Dust and Debris
Rather than making Creation scientists look foolish, these facts confirm their conclusions.
Then why do creationists themselves denounce the moon dust lie? Evedently AnswerInGenesis think that it makes creationists look foolish. And for once, they are right.
Here are creationists Rush and Snelling:
quote:
So are there any loopholes in the evolutionists’ case that the current apparent meteoritic dust influx to the lunar surface and the quantity of dust found in the thin lunar surface dust layer and the regolith below do not contradict their multi-billion year timescale for the moon’s history? Based on the evidence we currently have the answer has to be that it doesn’t look like it." (Snelling and Rush, Creation Ex Nihilo Technical Journal, 1993)
The fact remains that scientists were concerned because they thought the universe was billions of years old, which would result in much more dust, given the measurements recording the annual dust entering the earth’s atmosphere.
No direct measurement had been made at the time where your phoney figures originate. It has now. See Love and Brownlee, "A Direct Measurement of the Terrestrial Mass Accretion Rate of Cosmic Dust", Science 262, 1993.
By the way, have you ever noticed how quickly dust accumulates on your furniture?
This is amusing. Do you suppose that the dust on furniture is cosmic dust, or what?

Re: Crater Creep
Dr Adequate: As you know this to be a lie, perhaps you should stop reciting it.
Pahu: I know it to be the absolute truth”in my humble opinion.
Since you have seen the evidence proving it to be a lie, you know that it is a ie, and we know that it's a lie, and you know that we know that it's a lie, and you know that we know that you know that it's a lie.
So not only are you lying, but you're lying when it's certain that you're not fooling anyone. Which is stupid, don't you think? What do you hope to gain besides ensuring that everyone reading this thread knows that you are a liar?

Re: How Old Do Evolutionists Say the Universe Is?
In the late 1920s, evolutionists believed that the universe was 2 billion years (b.y.) old.
Wrong.
I have already shown you a four-billion year date for the Earth from 1921:
"Taking the mean of this and the upper limit found above from the ratio of uranium to lead, we obtain 4 x 10^9 years as a rough approximation to the age of the Earth's crust." --- Russell, H.N., 1921. A superior limit to the age of the Earth's crust in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London, series A, vol. 99, pp. 84-86.
Evolutionists, even in the broadest sense of that term, do not set dates on the age of the universe.
In other words, a big bang would produce only the three lightest chemical elements. Therefore, big bang advocates have struggled to explain the origin of the heavier chemical elements (carbon, oxygen, iron, lead etc.).
This mechanism has been well-known for decades. No "struggle" is involved.
Evolutionists can undoubtedly resolve these time contradictions”but at the cost of rejecting some cherished belief.
What interesting daydreams this guys has.
I guess it's even easier to induldge in silly fantasies about the future than about the past or the present.

Re: Crater Creep
Just noticed this old canard.
The "doubling at a rate of once every 15 years" number is derived by dividing the change in the mainstream age of the Earth in the last 150 years by 150, That is, it assumes that the mainstream age of the Earth has changed linearly over the last 150 years.
No, it's worse than that.
If the claim was true, then Darwin would have thought the Earth was only 4.5 million years old!
While he gives no estimate of the age of the Earth per se, but he estimated the denudation of the Weald (which he describes as a "mere trifle") as taking three hundred million years. (See Darwin, Origin of Species, chapter IX.)
