Man Attacks Youth With a Hedgehog

Don't throw wildlife around! You may be punished for it.

A New Zealand man has to attend court for throwing a hedgehog at a teenager. Mr Singhalargh threw the poor animal five meters at a 15 year old in the eastern North Island town of Whakatane.

The teenager was injured. He got a large red welt and several puncture wounds. The man was arrested shortly afterwards for assault with a weapon, namely the hedgehog.

The police did not say whether the hedgehog was alive before the ordeal, but did say that the animal was definitely dead afterwards.

New Kind Human Found Which Challeges Darwinian Theory

A new find of human remains challenges Darwinian theory. Science was absolutely certain that for the past 80,000 or so years only humans and Neanderthals wandered the earth. First the "hobbit" on the island of Flores was found which showed that other hominids lived almost to the present time in remote parts of the world. Now a new human species has come to light in Mongolia. The DNA from a child's finger indicates a separate species. Denisova is the name given to the new humans after the region where it was found.

For many years it was believed animals with a different number of chromosomes could not interbreed. This premise is now brought into question. Neanderthal DNA has been identified in human DNA. This finding makes the discovery of our origins almost impossible. With no clear distinction between species how do you put them into categories?

Denisova and humans diverted from a common ancestor about a million years ago. Neanderthals and humans separated from their ancestor half a million years ago. If interbreeding was commonplace Man's history will be blurred. The offspring of parents from two types of hominids will carry traits from both variations. Finding remains of distinct species will be more difficult. For the most part, however, bones and fossils of different hominids are being found. Perhaps cross breeding was not the norm.

Placating the Beliefs of Others

Religion goes too far. We live in a world where people are living in fear of the belief of others. Supposedly, we all live in technologically advanced societies, but where is the acceptance of scientific fact? Despite all the evidence many still reject the evolutionary scientific premise, believing that Mankind was created just 5,000 years ago.

As John Lennon said "Imagine there is no religion." In Australia when the ABC shows a television program which is partially aimed at Aboriginals a warning is given that the program shows deceased people. This is given "in fear" of offending religious belief. We can't go on appeasing those who want to control others. Let's face it When we pass from this life that is the end. We should not be so arrogant as to believe that we are somehow special in the eyes of a paternalistic creator.

Museums are now cowering from pressure groups. Mummies are being withdrawn from public view because some say they should be left to rest in spiritual peace. Even museum staff support this. Signs are being put up warning visitors that deceased people are close by. Even pagans have managed to get the skull of the iron age Worsley Man withdrawn from display.

It seems that people are living in fear of death itself, because that is what it truly is. Peering around the side of a partially covered coffin to see a mummy does not protect the deceased from scientific reality - that all of the mummy's gods could not save it from death.

A lion has no respect for the body of the antelope it has killed. Why do humans have this desire to show extreme respect for those who have been dead for thousands of years? Giving skeletons "privacy" to slumber is ridiculous. Ninety percent of people want to see ancient remains openly displayed with no restriction. Scientific research could be stopped in its tracks if the restrictive line of behavior continues.

Theory on Spread of Malaria to Man from Other Apes

The gorillas caused it. Scientists say mosquitoes split into a new form capable of infecting humans when Man and chimpanzees had a common ancestor. This is a myth. It is not based on fact. Bonobos have also been singled out for blame. Despite no parasites being found in bonobos or western gorillas, though some parasites were found in chimpanzees and eastern gorillas.

Before conclusions can be drawn on such research evidence of this mystery ancestor must be found first. This is all hearsay. How can present day apes be responsible for current malaria infection. Gorillas are only found in very small parts of Africa, not all round the world in the tropics.

This wreaks of leaps of faith not science. It is no better than religious beliefs based on prophets who probably never existed. It is scientific fact that evil spirits do not cause disease, yet millions of people believe that a man, Jesus, cured illness by casting out spirits.

New Finds of Early Humans Do Not Change the Basic Theory

Darwin got it right. Well actually he may not have. Fossils of early humans do not alter basic scientific thought in relation to evolution, Finds do not show a linear development toward advanced Man. Evolution though does tend to predict what new discoveries show. Claims that a particular fossil find is a breakthrough are just not true.

New dinosaur fossils, however, tend to be groundbreaking with regular identification of new type of dinosaurs. Indeed, they seem to have roamed on every continent. The book on dinosaur evolution has not yet been written. Time will tell how clear an understanding of it we can get.

New research teams need to be formed to go to all parts of the world and seek answers to evolution of mammals and reptiles, if indeed dinosaurs were reptiles. Some specialists today even question this view.

The End of Mankind Is Nigh

An Australian scientist Frank Fenner has predicted that Man will be extinct by the end of the century. We probably won't believe that because many have been foretelling the end of Mankind for hundreds of years. Professor James Lovelock of the Gaia theory that actually contradicts this hypothesis said the same recently. Mr Lovelock said the Earth will become so hot that only a handful of humans will be able to live at the poles.

But think of all those bunkers, some still there, built during the missile crisis of the twentieth century. Running for the hills now is not the rational thing to do, though a few may choose to do so. It would be silly to write Mankind off so easily. Mankind is very resilient. If the climate changes we will adapt to new conditions. After all, the whole present day human family descended from just a few hundred survivors in Africa many moons ago.

The human response to such an apocalyptic scenario is to do nothing until the crisis occurs. Then coping mechanisms will kick in. We will become nasty to each other, as in the past, and there will be winners in a dog eat dog situation.

Australpithecus sediba Is Not an Ancestor of Man

The Announcement that skeletons found in South Africa belong to a new species is premature.They were found in a cave near Johannesburg. The "new species" was named Australopithecus sediba. It was claimed to be the "rosetta stone" into the past. They were also the most complete skeletons ever discovered. The creatures walked upright, had long arms and powerful hands. Unfortunately, they were small brained.

Paleoanthropologists not involved in the find say the name chosen is just a "wastebasket" category. They are not ancestors of Man. Furthermore, some animals in the species could have had larger or smaller brains. It could still be transitional in evolution to Man, but very distant.

It may fit into Homo. Perhaps it is a sister species to Homo habilis. The brain size of Australopithecus sediba is the same as Homo floresiensis, the Hobbit, of Indonesia. The features in sediba are similar to those in other Homo species. Paleoanthropologists put very early finds in Homo. Sediba is not so unique as to have a lineage of its own. Indeed, Australopithecus africanus is older than sediba and africanus does have unique lineage. Sediba is too primitive to be a direct ancestor of Man. Older Homo species have features more like Man that sediba.

The Hobbit a Small Human on Flores Is Proven

Many people have written off the "hobbit" find as being just a joke, a sad hoax played on society. However, finding tiny "humans" is, apparently, real. Most scientists have accepted it though some still scoff at the whole issue without looking into it.

In 2004 archaeologists in Indonesia found skeletons, not fossils, skeletons of small human-like creatures who lived on the island of Flores as recently as 18,000 years ago. While humans spread around the world, these small "humans" carried on hunting pygmy elephants and other local species in isolation. Flint flakes found in million year old volcanic sediment show hobbit activity there a very long time ago.

The question is - When did the early humans leave Africa? Considering Man left the continent no more than 100,000 years ago why did other excursions of early man end in extinction? At least one group survived long enough to enlighten us about the numerous times humans left Africa. Evidence from bone structure shows that the hobbit descended from an earlier type of human than the small-brained Homo erectus which left two million years ago.

Spending time considering how hobbit came to be on Flores is quite irrelevant. Whether they went by boat, raft or just walked when a land bridge appeared, they got there and thrived.
