'Time' did it again July 23, of 2001 when it introduced us to our newest missing link, Ardipithecus ramidus kadabba,"How Apes Became Human." was the title for this article.. Time said, "Meet your newfound ancestor." There below the picture of a toe bone was the caption, "THIS TOE BONE PROVES THE CREATURE WALKED ON TWO LEGS." You have to be a careful reader to discover in this eight page article that the "TOE BONE" was found almost 10 miles from the other fragments used to construct this ape man.

This is a new one--at least to me--in the collection of pamphlet-pasted goodies but if it's like most of the others there won't be any "there" there.

Ok. I slept on it. Your photo library makes a compelling case. I simply do not trust left wing doctrines, however. They lie almost all the time. The occassional truth would be a surprise. Time Maggazine might soon be under new management, and then perhaps 'Time' will tell. I realise that human skulls have evolved subtly, even over the last 2 thousand years. Whether we were created directly out of clay or not, we have evolved since our beginning. And all animals, as I said in the beginning, evolved, which does not necessarilly conflict with Genisis.

Now for the root question: is the Book of Genisis reality, fiction, or garbled due to its ancient, prehistoric origins? The truth is, we will never know for sure in our lifetimes. How important is it? To some, it would mean proof that the Bible is a fairy tale. Not to me, however. Most religions are based on nothing but fairy tales, while the Bible is based on 95% history at the very least. And it has amazing prophesies.
