Mirrored here.Archaeoraptor Fallacy Then, Ham gives a fabricated story about a fossil dinosaur with feathers in China. Ham claims that the scientists thought they have a transitional form, but then they discover that the fossil is really 2 animals, a bird with feathers and a dinosaur glued together into forming one fossil. Here is the real, factual story of the Archaeoraptor fossil Ham and others are touting around to get people to doubt the scientists, who says they found feathered fossils of dinosaurs. The Archaeoraptor fossil is really 2 dinosaurs forged into one by a Chinese farmer, a peasant who dug the fossils up and smuggled it to the US along with the other fossils that are illegally unearthed and smuggled out of China to be sold to fossil collectors to add to their private fossil collections with little regard to the fossils' high value to the scientific community. Paleo-artist, Stephen Czerkus, became the unfortunate one of purchasing it for $80,000 in a fossil black market i
Mirrored here.One Big Major Joke! Now we get to the section of the book that's filled with blatant hypocrisy and venomous lies that spans from pages 44 to 53. On page 44, Ham blames everything bad (i.e. the effects of sin, the [sic] curse of earth, and the fabled global flood) on man and beast's competitiveness over space and the extinction of many animals species brought on by man. If young earth is true, and all organisms live at the same time, the world would have been a huge landfill of living organisms piled sky high with no space in between them all over the earth. Ham then encourages his followers on page 45 to ask a scientist a simple question about wildlife conservation. It's important to support wildlife conservation for many animals, because man is driving many animals into extinction for a lot of reasons, such as destroying their habitats to make room for farming, mining, and settlement, poaching, pollution, overgrazing, and other atrocities man has committed against the an
Mirrored here.Ham's Flood StoryNow we get to pages 28-33, where the story of Noah and the worldwide flood are told. Because man have filled the world with violence, God made up His mind to destroy mankind with a flood. But Noah finds grace in the eyes of the Lord, so God tells Noah that he will bring a great flood to punish mankind for his sins and commands him to build the ark that about, according to the book, around 437 feet long, 73 feet wide, and 44 feet high which is inaccurate. It was more likely 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet tall. Noah are to take with him two of every kind of animal, a male and his mate and 7 of every kind of animal that will be used for food and sacrifices, a male and his mates. In the young earth version of this world, Noah are to take with him fictional dinosaurs along with the rest of the animals into the ark to be kept alive and repopulate the earth after the flood. These creatures of myth are to be teens or much younger hatchlings because the
Mirrored here.Ham's Lie About When Dinosaurs LivedHam, on page 11, claims the reader might be saying, “What does all of this have to do with dinosaurs?” The real answer is zero. None of this has anything to do with dinosaurs. However, Ham claims Colossians 1:16 tells us that God created everything [word all capitalized]. Still, it has nothing to do with dinosaurs. Ham says God created dinosaurs (Saying that God created everything doesn't exempt Him from causing everything to evolve and change over time. If God just created everything, then He render everything living, boring cloning machines constantly making exact carbon copies of the original form.) and that God created dinosaurs on day 6 of Creation along side of man and all other land animals God has made. Something that only exist in Ham's fantasies. Ham then tells of how the dinosaurs were first coined by Sir Richard Owen years ago. Ham is one year off of what he claimed. The word 'dinosaur' was actually coined in 1842, not 1
Mirrored here.Unbelievable but true, there are creationists out there, including this one, who believes that there is no such thing as dinosaurs. They claim dinosaurs are non-existent, the bones and fossils of dinosaurs were just carved out by scientists to promote senseless propaganda, and/or the Devil have put those strange bones in the ground to deceive men or God put the bones there to test His people's faith in Him.In one way, they are telling the truth. There is no such thing as dinosaurs that lived alongside of man, roamed the Garden of Eden, being all vegetarians, perishing in the great flood of Noah only for some to be safe and hibernating on the ark only to leave it to die off in “post-flood” extremes (i.e. froze to death in the ice age, killed off by man, etc.), being Behemoth and Leviathan as told in Job 40 and 41, being dragons people saw, fought, and kill in legends, and living in the remote jungle areas of the world today. Therefore, dinosaurs is truly all a myth....
Oh, so lately there are new dinosaurs and other prehistoric life being unearthed and announced to the whole world. One is the discovery of a tiny pterosaur, Nemicolopterus. The other is a discovery of a hollow created hadrosaur, Valafrons, an Early Tertiary bat Onychonycteris finneyi, and now we have a discovery of 2 early carnosaurs, Kryptops palaios and Eocarcaria Dinops. These 2 carnosaurs, an Abelisaurid and a Carcarodontosaurid, live in Africa 110 million years ago at the same time as Suchomimus, a spinosaurid who search for fish along rivers and flood plains while Kryptops and Eocarcaria hunted and scavenged in search for big herbivorous prey to eat.

ScienceDaily (Jan. 4, 2008) — Asteroid impacts or massive volcanic flows might have occurred around the time dinosaurs became extinct, but a new arguemet is that the mightiest creatures the world has ever known may have been brought down by a tiny, much less dramatic force — biting, disease-carrying insects. An important contributor to the demise of the dinosaurs, experts say, could have been the rise and evolution of insects, especially the slow-but-overwhelming threat posed by new disease carriers. And the evidence for this emerging threat has been captured in almost lifelike-detail — many types of insects preserved in amber that date to the time when dinosaurs disappeared. “There are serious problems with the sudden impact theories of dinosaur extinction, not the least of which is that dinosaurs declined and disappeared over a period of hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years,” said George Poinar Jr., a courtesy professor of z
The Hubbard Lie Now we get to pages 48 and 49 where young earth hoaxes are paraded about to help the YECs give out false evidences against evolution and 'evolutionists'. First, there is a claim about Samuel Hubbard, a museum curator went on an expedition in 1924 to find evidence of prehistoric man. There, he allegedly found a rock drawing of what he believes to be a "dinosaur" that's nothing more than an attempt made by early fossil hunters to reconstruct plants and invertebrate animals from fossils found nearby the site where the rock art was found (Citations: Adrienne Mayor's Fossil Legends and the First Americans pg. 337, 403) alongside of carvings of what appears to be an ibex and an elephant attacking a man (note how the alleged "dinosaur" drawing has no forearms and has a body that's hollow and that it look more of a scorpion with a claw severed off than a dinosaur.). There's no trace of fossil remains of ibexes being found in North America. Otherwise, that's a Native American's
This is more like Dinosaurs Unleashed: The UN-true Story of Dinosaurs and Humans than anything else. For this is NOT a true story. If what Kyle Butt and Eric Lyons, who made this book Dinosaurs Unleashed: The True Story of Dinosaurs and Humans (Apologetics Press, 2005), says it's true, then we would have seen evidences of dinosaurs and humans found mixed together in the fossil record along with skins and bones made into tools and jewelry, wagons, bridals, leashes, and barns big enough to house them, and real valid authentic images, writings and figures carved exactly by the ancients of long ago as seen in Dinotopia and other forms of science fiction literature, but none are found! Knowing that dinosaurs poses a major problem for them and their teachings, creationists realized there are 3 options to consider. 1. Acknowledged and accept the true dinosaur record, which tells us that dinosaurs did lived and died before humans were around (Good Idea.). 2. Deny their existence (Bad idea). 3
I found this at Futurismic and thought I'd share my excitement.Apparently an asteroid may strike Mars in January! Why is this a big deal? Well, remember the dinosaurs? Remember when scientists told us they probably died from a big impact from an asteroid or comet? Well, here's a great chance for us to watch a large object strike a terrestrial planet! I'm hoping it will happen because this could bring about a whole slue of interesting images or videos--even more interesting than the Shoemaker-Levy 9 images here, here, and here. We might actually get to witness a significant impact on a relatively Earth-like planet (Mars is semi-Earthish, though it lacks liquid water and it is a bit different, but we could expect to gather quite a lot of info from this little red guy). You can read a bit more about the impact at this NASA article.Asteroid 2007 WD5 isn't a very big fella (about 50 meters or 164 feet), but for a small planet like Mars it shouldn't matter. It'll still do a good bit
I came across this video over at Dethroner and it is just flat out awesome. I am going to defer to Dethroner author Joel for the commentary on this one.
I didn’t even bother watching the whole thing before pausing it to link it up here. This might be the best video ever unleashed on the internet.
Update: Man, I can’t stop watching this. The more I watch, the more I notice: the fantastic editing; the clips from the live-action Initial D job; “Cockamura” family; the downshift from reverse to drive; “The dinosaur is the one that is kind of… *nod*”

That would be the record companies, who through their unendingly greedy and short-sighted policies, litigated when they should have innovated, and thus presided over the disintegration of their own business model.
The great irony, of course, is that just when a handful of companies managed to dominate the world, they also managed, through hubris and greed, to destroy the industry that they had managed to dominate. We are about to see some serious “creative destruction” in the recording world.
They have no one to blame but themselves. The real winner here will be Apple.
Here, via the Datalounge, is an article about a newly discovered genus of dinosaur, a gigantoraptor. Apparently, it had feathers.
Scientists Discover 3,000-Pound Gigantoraptor Dinosaur in MongoliaChinese scientists have uncovered the remains of a gigantic, surprisingly birdlike, dinosaur in Inner Mongolia, China. And by gigantic they mean 3,000 pounds. The scientists were surprised by its size because most assume that as dinosaurs got more birdlike, they got smaller. It's 35 times heavier than similar feathered dinosaurs, which rarely exceeded a body mass of 90 pounds.
Xing Xu and his colleagues at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing describe the dinosaur in this week’s issue of Nature: "A histological analysis suggests that Gigantoraptor gained this size by a growth rate considerably faster than large North American tyrannosaurs such as Albertosaurus and Gorgosaurus."

I am sorry, but with that pose and those feathers, you just KNOW
