1.1 The Sterkfontein Caves. The first time I
walked into the Sterkfontein Caves was as a 7/8-
year old boy in 1954/55 ... in those days you still
carried your primitive little (paraffin?) lamp in
your hand along with you. Later they progressed
to battery-powered headlamps, and, today, the
place is subtly lit up like an ancient gothic
cathedral ... what ambience! The cavernous
rooms are saturated with the echoes of
reverberating silence and the aroma of
unapologetic antiquity. Sterkfontein remains one
of my favourite haunts, until this day.
1.2 Still Many Unanswered Questions!
However, many questions still remain
unanswered. If Sterkfontein near Johannesburg,
were really the Cradle Of Humankind:
(a) Where Did The Pyramids Go? Where are its
great pyramids and ancient ruins, artifacts and
relics? Did the christian-creationists break in and
steal the evidence?
(b) Why No Language & Writing Systems?
Where are the proofs of the first rudimentary
languages, judicial systems, and the
mathematical & writing systems that have
'evolved' there? Where are the clay tablets, the
papyrus scrolls, astronomical-observatories and
-instruments?
(c) Why No Earlier Civilisations? Where are
the proofs of its first rudimentary civilisations
spanning a period of 1,75 – 3 million years?
What did Mrs. Ples and the rest of the
'Flintstones' do all the time ... watch 'Oprah'?
(d) Why No Signs Of Development? Why no
archeological evidence of significant cultural-
historical or technological development at
Sterkfontein ('Maropeng') in 'millions of years'?
Why no significant historical development in
South Africa at all ... at least (in embryonic form)
comparable to that of the Fertile Crescent,
Europe, Mexico, Peru, Indo-China, etc.?
(e) The Polonium-218 Radio-Halos In Granite.
Why does Robert Gentry's research with the
Polonium-218 Halo (a phenomenon observed by
geo-physicists microscopically in all granites)
show that all the granites on our planet could
only have coagulated within 3 minutes, and not
over 'millions of years'? If the Earth were really
formed out of redhot, molten lava (granite),
then why do geo-physicists find that, when they
melt down granites and allow it to cool back to
solids, it never cools back to solid granite again,
but to rhyolite? If Earth really originated from
molten granite the foundation-stone of our planet
ought to have been rhyolite, not granite.
4.3 Survival Of The Fittest Or The Luckiest?
were really 5 billion years old, why are the oldest
living trees (Sequoia Redwoods), the oldest and
largest coral reef (Australia's Great Barrier Reef)
and the oldest and largest desert (Sahara) only
about 4 000 years old? Simple: It must have
been really hard for an eco-sensitive coral reef,
an indigenous forest or a dry desert to survive
under the onslaught of a planetwide Flood about
4 400 years ago ... a deluge with the impact of
probably millions of tsunami's or the equivalent,
according to geo-physicist Walt T. Brown, of
about 8 billion hydrogen bombs.
2. THE AUSTRALOPITHECINES.
2.1 They Were All Apes. Much publicity have
followed the discovery of skulls/fragments
belonging to the so-called Australopithecines,
e.g. the Taung Child, Lucy, Mrs. Ples and others.
What I find so distressing is that few people enjoy
access to international literature wherein
opinions sometimes differ widely from thát we
may encounter in the local, pro-evolution press.
Some reputable scientists from elsewhere feel, for
instance, that the Australopithecines were no
more than apes.
2.2 Fraudulent Skull Measurements. Fraudu-
lent measurements of certain skulls have e.g.
apparently not been ruled out: (a) “Overall, the
revisionary calculations of Australopithecine skulls have led
to reductions of their calculated volumes. The total
percentage differences amount to 157,91” (Gerald Duffert, 'Some
Implications Of Variant Cranial Capacities For The Best-Preserved
Australopithecine Skull Specimens', Creation Research Society Quarterly, Sept.
1983, p.100). (b) “The apelike profile of Australopithecus is so
pronounced that its outline can be superimposed on that of
a female chimpanzee with a remarkable closeness of fit,
and in this respect and others it stands in strong contrast to
modern man” (J.S. Weiner, 'The Natural History Of Man',1973).
(c) “The hypothesis that brain enlargement marked the
beginning of man was long popular, but went out of fashion
with the discovery that the endocranial volumes of the
Australopithecine group were not larger than those of
gorillas.” (Elwin L. Simons, 'Primate Evolution: An Introduction To Man's
Place In Nature', p.278, 1972).
2.3 Keith's Rubicon? It would thus appear as if
the dimensions of the Australopithecine-skulls
(Adolescent = 430 cc./ Adult = 550 cc. - 600 cc.) all fall
well below Keith's Rubicon (Sir Arthur Keith) of
750 cc., the minimum 'homonid' skull-size to
qualify as a probable 'ancestor' to humans. Vance
Ferrell B.A., M.A., B.D. says: “The Australopithe-
cines, like modern apes, had a wide range of varieties, but
they are all apes.” ('The Evolution Handbook', Evolution Facts Inc., p.539,
2001).
3. FOSSILS CONFIRM THE GENESIS RECORD
OF CREATION.
3.1 Fossilisation And The Biblical Flood. Isn't
it strange how so many fossils are found in sedi-
demise? A prequisite for fossilisation is, amongst
others (a) Alkaline and damp soil and
(b) Sudden burial under great pressure. Now
what could have better created these conditions
than exactly the type of conditions associated
with the Biblical Flood? (alkaline and damp soil,
and living organisms and plants suddenly buried,
en masse, with great pressure underneath tons of
sediment). The rich Karoo Basin (RSA) alone is
alleged to still contain billions of fossilised
remains of mammals and amphibians. One
source actually states that it were as if the
animals were all trapped in mud (Peter Schirmer,
'The Concise Illustrated Encyclopaedic History Of Southern
Africa', C.N.A.(1980).
3.3 The Evidence For The Biblical Flood Is
Overwhelming. There are an estimated 100
million (or more) catalogued fossils/fragments in
the World today ... and most of them are evidence
of a Biblical Flood about 4 400 years ago. No
evolutionist or paleontologist will ever be able to
complain that Nature never provided them with
excellent evidence (fossils in sediment) for a
prima facie case for Special Creation! Some
sources estimate that ± 99% of the total animal-
kingdom that ever existed had already gone
extinct ... if that is correct, we have been left with
only ± 1% of the immense diversity and variety
that must have existed prior to the Biblical Flood.
This is, however, contrary to what Evolutionary
Theory teach ... i.e. that the animal kingdom were
supposed to have started with low diversity (± 1%
?) and 'evolved' into higher diversity (± 99% ?)!
4. WHY EVOLUTION IS UTTERLY AND
IRREVOCABLY IMPOSSIBLE.
4.1 The Cambrian Explosion. The Cambrian
Sediment represents the lowest and most ancient
of strata in the Evolutionists' so-called
(Paleozoic) 'Geological Timetable', or the
'Geologic Column' (Cenozoic, Mesozoic,
Paleozoic etc.). According to Evolutionary
Theory, living organisms evolved from low
diversity populations (uni-cellular) to high
diversity populations (multi-cellular) ... into the
mega-creatures that are supposed to roam the
Earth today. Observation in the field, however,
proves otherwise. Instead, we find, in the
Cambrian Sediment, the entire spectrum of a
wide variety (high diversity/multi-cellular)
creatures ... distinct species already fully
developed and fully classifiable! And, below the
Cambrian, virtually nothing! This puzzling
phenomenon has been labeled by the
flabbergasted evolutionists 'The Cambrian
Explosion' (We call it Genesis 1 ... Creation). In
other words, the 'Geologic Column' shows no sign
of Evolution at all.
Evolution says that living organisms (including
humans) started off small and evolved over
'millions of years' into larger creatures ... but the
Fossil Record shows that things used to be much
larger in the past (remember the giants and the
dinosaurs?) and are getting smaller, as if
everything is on a degenerate path. The 'Survival
Of The Fittest' philosophy is doing so 'well' that
soon there will be nothing left! Furthermore,
when a whale swallows 85% of a school of fish,
was it a case of the survival of the fittest or the
survival of the luckiest?
4.4 Evidence In A Court Of Law? Reputable
Evolutionists have conceded that, amongst more
than 100 million catalogued fossil-specimens in
the World today, those fossils that they are
prepared to exhibit as credible evidence for
Evolution in a Court Of Law, are so skimpy it can
all be (a) displayed on a single billiard table, and
afterwards (b) removed in a single coffin ...
exactly where it belongs (R.I.P.). If Evolutionary
Theory were true, there would have been billions
of pieces of genuine, credible evidence strewn
around the hills and koppies of South Africa!
Incidentally ... did you know that no respectable
Court will ever accept fossils or any fossil-
fragment as bona fide evidence for so-called
'Evolution'?
4.5 The French Taxonomist's Society. In
France, the French Taxonomists (people who
classify animals) have already, in the early 1960's,
renounced Evolution as an unworkable theory.
The very fact that animals can be classified and
named at all proves Evolution fallacious ...
according to the Theory there ought to be no
distinct, classifiable species at all, as evolutionists
allege that all living organisms are supposed to be
in constant flux ('busy evolving').
4.6 The Discovery Of DNA. Scientists who
work with DNA everyday of their lives will
confirm that Evolution across major species is
impossible, as the encoded DNA in major species
have been issued with a built-in firewall
forbidding it (it is a forbidden zone ... one of
many in the physics of the Universe).
4.7 Who Took The Transitional Fossil?
Observation in the field confirms this ... there are
no transitional fossil-specimens ('between-
species fossils') anywhere in the Word available
as evidence for scrutiny to prove Evolution had
taken place. Did the christian-creationists break
in and steal the transitional fossil?
4.8 The First Law Of Thermodynamics. This
Law states that energy & matter can neither be
created nor destroyed. Energy and Matter are
sisters: Energy is like 'evaporating' matter and
matter is like 'condensed' energy. No one can
add to or take away from the total portfolio of
energy & matter available in the Universe.
Scientists (and ordinary people) may well be able
to harness and manipulate it, but that's all. Now,
if energy & matter cannot be created or
destroyed, how then did Evolution (a) 'create
Nature' out of the available 'raw materials', and
(b) also create the 'raw materials' (out of which
Nature was made) out of nothing in the first
place? (c) How did Evolution manage to override
or abrogate the First Law Of Thermodynamics?
4.8 The Second Law Of Thermodynamics. This
Law states that the Universe is running down ...
time's arrow points downwards. There is a Law
Of Decay And Death at work in Nature, and
random events like Evolution can never lead to
Order out of Chaos (low entropy), but always to
Chaos out Order (high entropy). Ultimately,
everything dies and turns to dust. We may
perhaps delay the process by maintaining and
cleaning things but nothing we do will stop the
Law.
4.9 Have The Evolutionists Gambled Their Last
And Only Stamp? The hopes, dreams and
illusions behind Evolutionary Theory are
founded on the same hopeless mathematical
probabilities as the forces driving gambling and
betting ... the result, in the long-term, is
invariably shame, not success. Evolution, if it
were true, will have had to rely solely on luck.
4.10 An Intelligent First Cause. The Universe
is like a huge old grandfather-clock winding
down ... it too must, eventually, stop ticking,
decay and die. But then, Who wound it up in the
first place? Thus, the very existence of the Second
Law Of Thermodynamics demands the existence
of a Creator, an Intelligent First Cause.
4.11 What Do The Mathematicians Say?
Mathematicians have already, during the 1966
Wistar Symposium (USA), told the Evolutionists
that Evolution is mathematically not feasible.
Why won't they accept the verdict? The
mathematical laws of probability have been
programmed by the Creator to work against
evolution, not with it. Had the laws of
probability been programmed to actually work
with evolution, most of us would have been
diabolical mutations that looked movie-monsters
from hell. Be honest ... have you ever observed
(either experimentally or coincidentally) a dog
being born from a non-dog; or a finch from a
non-finch; a peppered moth from a non-moth; a
bird from a reptile, or a handsome prince from
an ugly frog? Don't worry ... me neither. How
does the evolutionist usually begin his story?:
“Millions of years ago ... !” And how does a fairy tale
begin the story?: “Long, long ago ... !” Evolution is a
fairy tale for GROWNUPS who won't GROW UP.
There minds have been fossilised by the pro-
evolution 'scientists' in pseudo-academic
sediment for over 150 years, since Darwin's book.
4.12 Fabrications & Misrepresentations. All the
following pieces of 'evidence for Evolution' were
either fabrications or misrepresentations: (a) Ar-
chaeopteryx (fabrication); (b) Java Man
(misrepresentation: gibbon-ape); (c) Lucy
(misrepresentation: pigmy-chimpanzee); (d) Piltdown
Man (fabrication); (e) Peking Man (misrepresentation:
ordinary humans); (f) Nebraska Man (misre-
presentation: tooth of a pig); (g) Orce Man
(misrepresentation: skull of a 4-month old donkey);
(h) Mrs. Ples (misrepresentation: ape); (i) Rhodesian
Man (misrepresentation: ordinary human); (j) the
Taung Child (misrepresentation: ape); (k) Neander-
thal Man (misrepresentation: ordinary human of immense
age probably suffering from Vitamin D-defiency
diseases/rickets/diabetes/arthritis). (l) The Evolutionists
have an unfortunate and embarrassing history of
fossil-evidence fabrication and/or misrepresen-
tation, as we have already seen. The most
embarrassing I suppose was when a live
specimen of the so-called coelacanth ('extinct for 70
million years'), suddenly showed up off the coast of
South Africa/Mocambique on 22 December 1938.
Amazingly, (i) the live-specimen looked exactly
like the '70 million year' old fossil-specimen! (ii)
Thus, no Evolutionary change had taken place
over '70 million years'! (What a nice Christmas-gift
for the atheists).
4.13 Institutionalised Atheism. Somebody has
remarked that Evolution is 'a great institution' ...
that is, if you liked living in institutions! Perhaps
the time has arrived for the Evolutionists to do
the honourable thing and concede that
Evolutionary Theory is a Religious Cult, and not
Natural Science.
Evolution = Tax-Supported Science Fiction +
Institutionalised Atheism
( = TSSF + IA)
4.14 Irreducible Complexity. This principle
demands that living organisms must be fully
formed before they can operate as a viable
species. For instance: (a) How long can any
living organism, 'evolving' over many 'millions of
years', afford to wait for its blood to learn to clot
... musn't blood be able to clot instantly within a
matter of minutes? (b) How long can the little
fish, squirting down his prey (dinner) with his
little built-in water pistol, afford to wait for his
food until he had learnt the rudiments of his
craft ... musn't he be able to eat that same
evening? (c) How long can the baby-whale af
ford to wait until the mother-whale had develop-
ed and perfected a fully-functional (non-return)
oneway-valve (nipple) for baby-whales to drink
from (under water)?
