48. Sequential Ages |
|
|
| 238 |
You remember them from
school, right? Stone Age, Copper, Brass, Bronze, Iron, etc.
Evolutionists would have you believe man developed in this sequential
order. |
What on earth has this to
do with evolution? This is archaeology! |
Irrelevant |
| 239 |
No way! A quick look at
middle-east history and archaeology show that the Israelites possessed
iron when neighbors all around had brass. |
Nobody has ever claimed
that the rate of cultural development is uniform throughout the world! |
Irrelevant |
| 240 |
You remember the
National Geographic specials...The natives in Africa in the 50's and
60's were still using wood and stone tools. Are they true man, or some
throwback, or "missing link" ? How about the American Indians
of the 1800's? They used wood and stone tools. Were they true man ?
There are still tribes in South America that use wood and stone tools
exclusively. Are they living missing links ? |
What on earth has this to
do with evolution? |

This mentality is what
caused thousands of Australian Aborigines to be killed and their heads
cut off and shipped to museums in America. Scientists thought they were
the living "missing link". Their skulls were displayed to the
public using this argument of stone age technology. How sad. |
I agree - it's very sad,
and regret it deeply as a human being. It was bad science, and no modern
scientist would dream of doing anything so appalling. In any case, it
has nothing to do with the argument. |

49. Trilobite Eye
|
|
|
| 242 |
Some trilobites had eye
lenses made of calcite (thousands found). Because they are made of "rock",
paleontologists have been able to study the lenses and have found
several interesting things. Unlike human eyes, which are composed of a
single lens, the trilobite eye is composed of a double lens design with
up to 15,000 separate lens surfaces in each eye. Billions and billions
of years could not "evolve" something this complex. |
Completely false. There
are many more and less complex ancestral forms of eye in the trilobites.
Their evolution poses no problems for theorists. |
FALSE |
| 243 |
It had to be created,
with complete knowledge of Abbe's sine law and Fermat's principle. |
A stupendously stupid
remark! Those laws refer to the properties of nature! A functioning eye
has to conform, otherwise it wouldn't function. It doesn't require
knowledge of a law formulated by human beings. |
Fatuous |

50. Mica In Granite |
|
|
| 244 |
Anywhere on earth where
granite is found, no matter what depth (remember the geologic column is
a lie-granite is found at varying levels), it contains mica. Mica is
composed of 3 different isotopes - polonium-210, polonium-218 and
polonium-214, without any p-238 halos. The shortest lived of these
isotopes has a half-life of .00162 seconds. The longest half-life is 3
minutes. This means that the granite was fully formed and "recording"
in a maximum of 21 minutes and a minimum of less than 1/2 second. |
An ill-informed assertion
based on "use of evidence, faulty experiment design, mistakes in
geology and physics, and unscientific principles of investigation and
argument style" |
FALSE |
|
|
Link
- Polonium Halos |
|
| 245 |
Granite did not take 300
million years to form as evolutionists would have you believe. |
Simply untrue |
FALSE |
| 246 |
Science disproves this
ridiculous notion. |
The opposite of the
truth. Science disproves the ridiculous notion that granite did not take
a long time to form. |
FALSE |
