They found Dick Clark?

Isn't it safe to say that 200,000 is still an educated guess?
As I recall, "Lucy" is about 6 million years. That leaves quite a gap and quite a story about the possible timing and development of the transition(s)...
Tricky stuff. Evolution is about new species arising from old species. But if you can't tell the difference between one species and other, or natural variation within a single population, then it's tough to know what you have.
My teenage daughter specializes in dating rocks, too. All her boyfriends are dense, difficult to get to and lay around alot.........
So funny. The evolutionists dated the fossils by the rocks. They also like to date rocks by the fossils. Who wants to try to prove they didn't? Thanks.
A testable prediction made by the Theory of Evolution.
Well, I was disappointed. When the headline said, "Oldest Remains of Modern Humans Are Identified by Scientists, I assumed that "identified" meant that a scientist had said, "Yep, that's Bobby Ray, alright!"
Wow, if this is true then the site is the birth place of humanity! Discoveries don't get much more important then this. Wow again.
When you haven't a leg to stand on, state it like it's fact. Standard MO.
Probably died standing in line to vote for Kerry. Find another couple of remains and the DUers will demand reopening the count.

YEC INTREP - Origin of Man - fossil record - dating
We already knew that judgments about who is primitive and who is not are highly subjective (see 01/01/2005 entry). The labeling game amounts to a kind of paleoanthropological racism. Primitive is in the eye of the beholder. Since Mr. Omo II can’t show off his intellect, the Darwin Party racists are free to categorize him as “less highly evolved,” like the early Darwinians used to classify non-Englishmen. Even with the new dates that make him a contemporary of Mr. Modern Omo I, Fleagle says, in effect, “well, what do you know; primitives and moderns lived at the same time.”
The other inference about the culture gap is so incredible, so absurd, it calls into question the intelligence, if not the sanity, of anyone who would accept it. They are claiming that human beings, virtually indistinguishable from us, went for up to 150,000 years without learning how to make a tool, catch a fish, harpoon a mammoth, ride a horse, plant a farm or drill holes in a reed to make even a simple flute. What did these brethren do for amusement? Look how much humans have accomplished in the 6,000 years of recorded history, from cuneiform to Saturn spaceships. To think that fully-endowed humans could not think of even the simplest cultural advances for 25 times that length of time is patently ridiculous. Even crows and chimps show more capability than these humans who are supposed to have walked the earth for eons without leaving a trace. Pile this absurdity on top of that: “Brown says the fossil record of humans is poor from 100,000 to 500,000 years ago....” Let’s build conclusions on evidence, not the other way around, OK?
If it were not for the Darwin Party’s total commitment to millions of years of evolution, and their totalitarian control over the media, this claim would be laughed off the stage as the funniest thing since the Dean scream. This is another one of the aspects of evolutionary theory that will some day make history students wag their heads in disbelief that so many educated people could be duped for so long by the teachings of a primitive-looking guru named Charlie.
One skull and bones here and there does not a species make! If you found several hundred thousand, then I'd consider it as evidence.
Well, I wasn't there 200,000 years ago so I really cannot comment on whether this is true, or just a possibility.
How accurate is carbon-dating? Can you duplicate the results based on accepted biological experiments or tests?
If carbon dating is accurate how come the first experiment on how old is this earth is different from the second and on the thirds or so on?
Or could this be as phony as the evolution theory THAT IS CONFUSING THE CHILDREN IN SCHOOL?
I want to know.
After reading another thread with a similar theme, I wonder if some day, this discovery will also be termed a "dating disaster".
