(Missing links)
Ah, the elusive missing links, where did they all go? You know, guys with names such as: The
Neanderthal Man or The Piltdown Man; or how about the Cro-Magnon Man. The list goes on; isn’t it odd that we don’t
hear about them anymore? Do you
why? I will tell you why – because they
have all been proven to be false, down to the last one. As in all other assumptions about evolution,
science has progressed in its ability to find more information about earlier
findings and have thus come to the conclusion that these “missing links” are
not what the original discoverers thought they were but are just ordinary men
or ordinary animals as such is the case.
Here are two examples : The Neanderthal Man lived in the Neander
Gorge in Germany and had a
severe case of arthritis because of the damp weather and he had rickets. Rickets is a disease caused by a lack of
vitamin D that prevents the body from using calcium. Therefore, his bones were
out of shape and his forehead was larger that normal. The other example is The Nebraska Man – this
one is a classic. A tooth was found in
Nebraska USA and scientists built a man from this tooth; they even explained
how he was able to search for food and what tools he used. It turned out to be a pig’s tooth. Our Heavenly Father made us in His image –
how can people even begin to believe that we evolved from some cave man? “And God said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and
over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in
his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he
them.” (Genesis 1: 26, 27)
