Darwinists come up with a sensational claim to deceive public, and when it comes out that it is fake, they remain utterly silent about it and seek another hoax. Here are some of the sensations and confessions of forgery in Darwinists’ own words:
Piltdown Man:
What They Said:
During his visit to British Museum in 1935, H. F. Osborn, the renown American paleoantropologist, said: " …Nature is full of paradoxes…[this is] a discovery of transcendant importance to the prehistory of " (Stephen Jay Gould, "Smith Woodward's Folly", New Scientist, April 5, 1979, p. 44.)
What Happened:
Le Gros Clark, a member of the crew who unveiled the hoax said: " The evidences of artificial abrasion immediately sprang to the eye. Indeed so obvious did they seem it may well be asked-how was it that they had escaped notice before?" (Stephen Jay Gould, "Smith Woodward's Folly", New Scientist, April 5, 1979, p. 44.)
F. Clark Howell “Piltdown was discovered in 1953 to have been nothing more than an ape’s jaw placed with a human skull. It was a hoax placed on purpose. They recognized neither the jaw to be an ape’s or the skull to be a human’s. Instead, they declared each part as [from] an in-between [species] of ape and human. They dated it to be 500,000 years old, gave it a name (Eoanthropus Dawsoni or “Dawson’s Dawn Man”), and wrote some 500 books on it. The “discovery” fooled paleontologists for forty-five years.” (Howell, F. Clark, Early Man, NY: Time Life Books, 1973, p.24-25)
Nebraska Man:
What They Said:
“Nebraska's Ape man of the western world,” (The New York Times, Sept. 17, sect. 7, p. 1, 1924)
What Happened:
Nebraska ape tooth proved a wild pig's. (The New York Times, Feb. 20, p. 1)
"Hesperopithecus (The Nebraska Man) dethroned" (The Times (London), Feb. 21, p. 16)
Coelacanth:
What They Said:
Darwinists said it was an extinct transitional form from sea to land with lungs and feet that were about to form.
What Happened:
“With the discovery of Latimeria (Coelacanth), it was hoped that direct information regarding transition from fish to amphibians could be gathered... However examinations carried out on Latimeria’s anatomy and physiology revealed that this presumption of relation consisted only of a wishful thinking and that depiction of Coelacanth as a “lost ring” had no basis at all.
Lucy:
What They Said:
Darwinist Berhane Asfaw from California University said: “We just found the chain of evolution, the continuity through time.”
“One form evolved to another. This is evidence of evolution in one place through time.”
What Happened:
On May 1999 Science et Vie put Lucy on its cover. The following quotation is from the article, "Adieu Lucy": “…that apes of the species Australopithecus did not represent the origin of man.”
Albert W. Mehlert (evolutionist and paleoanthropology researcher:): “The evidence given above makes it overwhelmingly likely that Lucy was no more than a variety of pygmy chimpanzee, and walked the same way (awkwardly upright on occasions, but mostly quadrupedal). The “evidence” for the alleged transformation from ape to man is extremely unconvincing.”
Ida:
What They Said:
Science Daily: “extraordinary”.
Sky News: “eighth wonder of the world”
Darwinist David Attenborough: “The link they would have said until now is missing ... it is no longer missing.”
What Happened:
Darwinist Elwyn Simons from Duke University:
“It’s absurd and dangerous.” “This is all bad science... Darwinius is a wonderful fossil, but IT IS NOT A MISSING LINK OF ANY KIND. IT REPRESENTS A DEAD END IN EVOLUTION.”
Haeckel’s embryo drawings:
What They Said:
Haeckel: Being evolved from its ancestors’ long and slow paleontological developments, during its rapid evolution an individual repeats the most important changes in terms of shape.
What Happened:
Haeckel’s confession of his own forgery: “After this compromising confession of "forgery" I should be obliged to consider myself condemned and annihilated if I had not the consolation of seeing side by side with me in the prisoner's dock hundreds of fellow-culprits, among them many of the most trusted observers and most esteemed biologists. The great majority of all the diagrams in the best biological textbooks, treatises and journals would incur in the same degree the charge of "forgery," for all of them are inexact, and are more or less doctored, schematised and constructed (Francis Hitching, The Neck of the Giraffe: Where Darwin Went Wrong, New York: Ticknor and Fields 1982, p.204)
Horse Series:
What They Said:
Darwinist Bruce J. McFadden said horse fossils have been beneficial in understanding evolution.
Darwinist W. D. Matthew said the geological record of horse’s relatives is one of the classical examples of evolution. (W. D. Matthew The Evolution of the Horse: A Record and Its Interpretation”, The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1(2):139-185.)
What Happened:
Evolutionist Boyce Rensberger: The popularly told example of horse evolution, suggesting a gradual sequence of changes from four-toed fox-sized creatures living nearly 50 million years ago to today's much larger one-toed horse, has long been known to be wrong. Instead of gradual change, fossils of each intermediate species appear fully distinct, persist unchanged, and then become extinct. Transitional forms are unknown.
Evolutionist paleontologist Dr. Colin Patterson (one of the executives of the British Natural History Museum): There have been an awful lot of stories, some more imaginative than others, about what the nature of that history [of life] really is. The most famous example, still on exhibit downstairs, is the exhibit on horse evolution prepared perhaps fifty years ago. That has been presented as the literal truth in textbook after textbook. Now I think that is lamentable, particularly when the people who propose those kinds of stories may themselves be aware of the speculative nature of some of that stuff
Archaeopteryx:
What They Said:
Pat Shipman: [Archaeopteryx] more than the world’s most beautiful fossil…it is] an icon- a holy relic of the past that has become a powerful symbol of the evolutionary process itself. (Jonathan Wells, Icons of Evolution)
What Happened:
Science: “Archaeopteryx probably cannot tell us much about the early origins of feathers and flight in true protobirds because Archaeopteryx was, in a modern sense, a bird.” (Hank Hanegraaff, Fatal Flaws "What Evolutionists Don't Want You To Know", W Publishing Group, 2003 p. 19)
Industrial Melanism
What They Said:
Michael E. N. Majerus: “the most famous example of evolution in action...”
What Happened:
A quotation from the Daily Telegraph in 1999: “Evolution experts are quietly admitting that one of their most cherished examples of Darwin's theory, the rise and fall of the peppered moth, is based on a series of scientific blunders.”
Homo Floresiensis (Flores Man – Hobbit):
What They Said:
BBC: Australian archaeologists unearthed the bones while digging at a site called Liang Bua, one of numerous limestone caves on Flores. The remains of the partial skeleton were found at a depth of 5.9m (19ft).
The bones unearthed by Australian scientists in the Liang Bua province excavations opens a new era in the history of archaeology. The examinations made on tooth, coccyx and skull revealed that the living being was no different than human beings and walked upright. This new living being (Homo floresiensis) was named after the island (Flores island) where the skeleton was found.
What Happened:
It came out that these remains belonged to deformed individuals of Homo sapiens.
Neanderthals:
What They Said:
Darwinists claimed that Neanderthals were a more primitive human race.
What Happened:
Erik Trinkaus: “Detailed comparisons of Neanderthal skeletal remains with those of modern humans have shown that there is nothing in Neanderthal anatomy that conclusively indicates locomotor, manipulative, intellectual, or linguistic abilities inferior to those of modern humans.” (Erik Trinkaus, "Hard Times Among the Neanderthals," Natural History, vol. 87, December 1978, p. 10; R. L. Holloway, "The Neanderthal Brain: What Was Primitive," American Journal of Physical Anthropology Supplement, vol. 12, 1991, p. 94. )
“What was considered a major piece of evidence showing that the Neanderthals once lived in northern Europe has fallen by the wayside. We are having to rewrite prehistory.” (Tony Paterson, “Neanderthal Man ‘never walked in northern Europe”, 22 August 2004)
Dino-bird (Archeaoraptor)
What They Said:
Christopher P. Sloan, a National Geographic writer said: "We can now say that birds are theropods just as confidently as we say that humans are mammals."
What Happened:
Alan Feduccia: Archaeoraptor is just the tip of the iceberg. There are scores of fake fossils out there, and they have cast a dark shadow over the whole field. When you go to these fossil shows, it's difficult to tell which ones are fake and which ones are not. I have heard there is a fake-fossil factory in northeast China, in Liaoning Province, near the deposits where many of these recent alleged feather dinosaurs were found. Journals like Nature don't require specimens to be authenticated, and the specimens immediately end up back in China, so nobody can examine them. (Discover, February, 2003)
Junk DNA
What They Said:
Prof. Beyazıt Çırakoğlu: "It is thought that these DNA sequences are no-longer-used junk DNA sequences.”
What Happened:
Evan Eichler, an evolutionist scientist from Washington University " The term ‘junk DNA’ is a reflection of our ignorance."
