Java Man, Neanderthal Man, Piltdown Man???

"If evolution truly has formed the human race (homo sapien sapien) where are all of the proverbial "missing links" or, for lack of a better word, "pre-human" forms? Archaeologists should have found and should presently be finding hundreds, if not thousands, of these skeletal forms yet they do not. Why is that so?"
--I would not expect many at all humans to be present in the geologic column, it is even a thought to consider why there are any, at least in the flood scenario. I totally agree that we should be finding many many of these fossilized specimens of proto-humans. Though mabye thats because were an isolated population, punctuated equillibria right?As for Gene, you assertion that 'without evolution none of the above should exist' seems to be implying that Evolution is the only mechenism explaining these findings. Quite a bold statment, I have found no problem with their existance.-------------------

"TC, why did God make half-human, half-simian creatures? Is your position even falsifiable?"
--Oh no, hehe, I just guess that some people would not consider a lone person suffering from pegets disease or a form of arthritis as a real human.------------------

"So all fossil hominids are diseased humans?"
--No, they aren't all. Some of them are though, they each have a different explination, usually the supposed closer relatives are the humans and the older ones are the apes. I am not too big on human ancestory, I am more into the geology and a little bit of biology, sooner or later some cosmology. Leekim seems to be a creationist, he may have more of an interest in such homonids and its alleged perspects. He may have some input on a specific homonid.------------------
