Shloemoe's Museum of Natural Science

Post by The Rizen shloemoe »

OSLO, Norway - Researchers on Thursday announced the discovery of the remains of a short-necked plesiosaur, a prehistoric marine reptile the size of a bus, that they believe is the first complete skeleton ever found.

The 150 million year old remains of the 33-foot ocean going predator were found in August on the remote Svalbard Islands of the Arctic, the University of Oslo announced.

This article is a about a human skeleton they found 3 million years old which seems to support evolution. Is quite interesting.

yes ...an incredible amount of chance events have to take place
for us to find something like that...skeptics of human evolution
say.."well if we came from apes then how come the scientist can't
show us more intermediate(missing links)forms....that's because
pre-humans where very scare to begin with...and a lot of lucky
things have to happen(where it died, how it died, fossilization...etc.)
then somebody has to hit the jackpot and find them....evolution
is a fact...it's only called a theory because science has rigorous
demands on making things laws.

That's why people who advocate divine creation(without evolution)
are oom-pah-pah poo-poo pants!!!!!...technically speaking.....
