NOTICE: The talk.origins newsgroup is blackballing this posting --
not allowing it to appear -- contrary to its charter and bylaws. This
posting is indeed ON TOPIC but apparently has created too much
heat in its kitchen.

Then why did it show up?

It only appeared AFTER the above notation. Three times previously
posted, it flew to the neighboring galaxy. But suddenly talk.origins
began running scared.

This is an underground mining map showing coal veins
that were vioently disrupted, and where most of the fossils
(below) came from.

Why are you the only person to interpret the map this way?

And Earnest Hooton, longtime professor of anthropology at Harvard
University, seconded the motion years later in his book, "Apes, Men
and Morons," citing the absence of undeniable physical evidence.

"I can point to many anatomical
features of man in which the known
courses of evolution can be explained
plausibly by the theory of natural
selection, but I do not know of one
in which it can be proved."

But he also wrote that:

For myself, a naive physical anthropologist, the way still seems
comparatively straight and plain. I adhere to the old-fashioned
belief that the more numerous and detailed the resemblances
between two animals the closer the relationship between them.
Effect of similarity or difference of habitus can not obscure
man's fundamental likeness to the great anthropoid apes, and
especially to the gorilla and the chimpanzee. I therefore persist
in the opinion that these two apes are our nearest collateral
relatives...

- Earnest Hooton in "Apes, Men and Morons", page 74.

And earlier on, he wrote that

As I have said, I am not concerned with the eternal verities of
religion, but only with its temporal utility. Hence it has
seemed to me in every respect desirable that systems of
religious belief and practice be harmonized with the scientific
facts and probabilities of the evolutionary theory. And I am
not aware that unsurmountable difficulties have been
encountered by Christian scholars in such harmonization.

- Earnest Hooton in "Apes, Men and Morons", page 7.

Tell me Ed, if there is "evidence galore", why do you feel the need to
lie about the beliefs of Earnest Hooton?

augray:

I said before and I'll say again, you -- Jon Barber, previously known
in talk.origins as gen2rev -- are on the payroll of the Scientific
Establishment.

You AND Attorney David Sienkiewicz.

Probably a few others as well.

It means American tax dollars are being used to perpetuate
a myth -- the evolution of man -- that has warped the mind of men,
and warping the mind of children.

Your accusations, and Sienkiewicz', of dishonesty by me doesn't
ave a dog's leg to stand on.

Everything the good folks jhave read here is the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth.

Your anthropological community, headed by the Smithsonian
Institution, is a conspiracy utilizing deceit, deception and
dishonesty.

It is a black eye to the sacred name Science and belongs in
a sewer. Even the sewer would clothespin its nose, that's how bad
you smell.
