Someone can look at a display of skulls and see right away that some are human, some are ape. There are also variations in each — which is something that creationists expect. The evolutionist will give a convincing story worthy of Rudyard Kipling, bur are actually based on assumptions based on assumptions and whatever else can be taken from the Ring. Step back, get a view from the hill (the bigger perspective), utilize some healthy skepticism, and think. This helps in many circumstances. Also, take a look at some creationary material, such as presented just below.
Today’s feedback is from David B. who wrote in to us about transitional forms and human evolution.To read the response, click on "Do these skulls prove common ancestry between apes and humans?"
I am now writing to find out more information regarding the creationist view regarding the alleged transitional forms of "early humans".
I was so confident in defending the notion that, “there are no transitional forms, the fossils should be clearly be seen as either human or ape”.
I also went on to describe the dog skull analogy. IE many different variations of dog skulls, but they're still the same species.
. . .
I am somewhat disturbed by this fossil:
[link to the Hobbit fossil deleted, as per site rules]
While it appears to be human in form, I couldn't help noticing the skull features.
They do give a strong impression of being somewhere in between Ape and Human.
While I am still confident in the YEC perspective (especially when it comes to the debate of genetics / chemical evolution), I do not know what to make of this / ended up making a complete fool of myself during our debate.
Does anyone have any expertise on this matter, with which they can clarify further?
