		<description>I&#039;m trying to determine if the previous poster is trying to discredit the find or evolution in general?

That isn&#039;t your Aunt Lucy so she&#039;s not going to have your nose so odds are she&#039;s going to look more like the ancestors/species she&#039;s closer to.  If your that interested in science you should be familiar with natural selection and favorable genetic mutation.  That&#039;s kind of evolution in a nutshell.  Since evolution has occurred within most of our lifetimes for some species I don&#039;t think the concept as a whole can be discredited so trying to based on early reports from a find that was only reluctantly acknowledged (it was leaked) seems foolish.

Sure the science of evolution isn&#039;t 100% fool proof and some people run off on tangents with crazy ideas, but last time I checked you&#039;d be hard pressed to find more then 2 religious scholars that agree on all the same religious points.  I&#039;m making the comparison assuming people would believe testaments of people from thousands of years ago written down and translated numerous times and ways as being just as credible as science that you can witness with your own eyes.

That&#039;s a cool tactic referring to other areas of science as being more credible solely based upon your (a no doubt logical peson) expressing an interest in them, but then knowing those areas as you do you should also be familiar with the arguments concerning things like &quot;The Big Bang&quot;, &quot;Quantum Entanglement&quot;, &quot;String Theory&quot;, and etc.  Not to mention more strange areas of science like Dark Matter.   Just because a particular area of science doesn&#039;t have the whole picture yet it&#039;s not an excuse to burn the scientists at the stake who are striving to get a better understanding of humanity and it&#039;s origins.

I agree that rushing to embrace new finds in ANY field of science has it&#039;s dangers, but so does decrying gravity while jumping off a cliff.  Some agruments begin to have more reality as your reaching maximum velocity headed toward ground.</description>

		<description>&quot;But some independent experts, awaiting an opportunity to see the new fossil, are skeptical of the claim.”   This from their own camp. 

Even they don&#039;t believe this drivel. Just looking at the fossil it is glaringly apparent we have a lizard or four legged mammal type creature plain and simple. As for the age, 47 million years, they have absolutely no idea of what the real age is, nor do I. It is nothing more than wishful thinking, unsubstantiated guess work, and the usual desperation by a pseudo-science who&#039;s religion gets hammered every day due to it’s total lack of “real” data. These fantastic numbers and assertions are derived from their fantasies not from scientific fact. They would have the lay public swallow this swill they conger up as real science, because most will not take the time to research the facts.  Also to destroy the reputation of any that would stand against them, by such acts of tyranny only rivaled by the inquisition of the Dark Ages. This so-called scientific field grasps at straws to try and shore up its crumbling reputation among more and more credible scientist who realize what a sham it is. There is zero credible evidence to back all of their claims and as more and more scientific research becomes available it repeatedly shoots this field of alchemy down from its precarious perch. A recent debacle on their part illustrates this religions desperation to jump on anything to keep the public in the dark. Junk DNA.

It has been uncovered in research that only three percent of DNA, approximately, is actually responsible for “direct” formation of structural protein, of which you and I are made. The rest was labeled “Junk DNA” by these pseudo-scientist in attempts to save their dwindling followers. The spin was that this non-structural DNA must be useless remnants of evolutionary DNA and “selfish” DNA as if it had a personality. (Pasteur is turning over in his grave.) This has been plastered all over in the lay press as proof of evolution. Well folks, they messed up again, as does anyone who attempts to twist data to fit their nebulous theories; they try to make a square peg fit an octagon shaped hole.
As it turns out this so-called “Junk DNA” is anything but “Junk”, proven by thousands upon thousands of experiments by biologists in labs all over the world. In fact without “Junk DNA’s” incredible precise mechanism to turn structural DNA on and off,  to coordinate myriads of structural processes in “structural DNA” and myriads of other ultra-complex reactions that science has barely begun to unravel, we would not be here reading this sensationalist journalism written by the Tribune. (cut and pasted I should say) In other words without this so-called “non-structural” DNA”, protein building DNA would not function, let alone exist. So in reality it is structural DNA by orchestrating and allowing three percent of DNA to do it’s incredible job. Interestingly more and more scientist are coming forward to say they realize DNA is to fantastic to have arisen on its own. The church fathers of evolution then counter by attempting to conger up more fantastic theories and resurrect new spins on old ones, like the most recent attempts to make RNA magically produce life. It can’t and hasn’t come close in laboratory experiments but amazingly is reality in their imaginations.  Even with highly skilled scientist tweaking and twisting their experiments in their labs it doesn’t happen. It begs the question. Where has the news been about this new evidence that undermines this religion even more.






Interestingly non-existent in the lay-press but pervasive in scientific papers is this scientific evidence uncovered by credible scientist all over the world, that proves without   doubt the antithesis of the claims the religious zealots of evolution attempt to build their fantasies on. How does this happen? By a mechanism as old as religion itself. Aggressive action to silence all detractors. The inquisitors of the alchemist religion called evolution will punish those who print otherwise, which has come more and more to light in the last decade. Exactly like the religion of the Dark Ages, that was based on credulity at best, attempted to silence their critics with tyranny, banishment and death, so does this religion brought into existence in the last 150 years. The evolutionary hierarchy in its attempts to protect its pseudo-science, will commit defamation, banishment from establishments of higher learning and career assassination of highly credible and skilled scientist and science writers who print otherwise, in order to stop the real facts from rising to the fore. Just try to get into the Masters or Doctorate programs if you disagree with the demigods of evolution. They also have used the fragile egos of the lay public by creating an atmosphere that if you agree with this sham you’re intelligent, if you don’t you’re a stupid, uneducated buffoon. In fact, it has been stated most recently, by a lay person educated in journalism not science, that teaching your children anything but evolution is tantamount to child abuse. That should scare the DNA out of you. Very scary people to say the very least. Why would they do this? Salary, tenure at universities, grant money, a career that they have lived in proving to be pure fantasy thus blasting their egos and losing face among friends and the scientific community to name a few reasons. 

Finally and certainly not all inclusive. I love astronomy, physics, quantum physic, sub-atomic research because of their enlightenment of the wonders of our universe, so this is not an attack on science but on pseudo-science posing as a credible scientific endeavor.

Take this article as it really is. The fantasies of children in the backyard who have found a bone and create a fantasy story to impress their siblings and friends. Unfortunately, the creators behind this fantasy have tremendous power over the press in the news and education of our world and want us to remain in the scientific Dark Ages for their selfish gain. Wake up and do the research.</description>
