Evolution Evidence Overturned

A scientist attached a whale's tail to a four-legged animal to make a "walking whale". This fossil was considered the best proof of evolution but has turned out to be a "mistake." Now this evidence for evolution has been overturned.

Rodhocetus: The whale's tail (fluke) and flippers were added by a university scientist.

Saint Louis, MO (PRWEB) November 18, 2009

For years, scientists claimed that they had compelling fossil proof of evolution in Rodhocetus, a four-legged animal with a whale's tail. This "missing link" was considered by many evolution experts to be one of the best proofs of evolution. When biologist, physician and television producer Dr. Carl Werner went to check it out, he was in for a big surprise: There were no fossils of the tail of Rodhocetus. They were missing. When he questioned the scientist who had added the whale's tail, the scientist admitted this "best proof" did not have a whale's tail or flippers as he had suggested in museum diagrams.

This was just the first of many fossil improprieties that Dr. Werner found when he set out to evaluate evolution. Other problems included a scientist attaching a dinosaur tail to a bird to make a "flying dinosaur", and another other scientist covering up the fraud. One large metropolitan museum attached feathers to a dinosaur to make a "feathered dinosaur", even though feathers were not found. Another museum attached human hands to Lucy, even though the fossils were not human. There were other problems too: Evolution charts at museums suggested that evolution was true, but these diagrams lacked corroborating evidence.

Cover-ups, name changes, adding scales or feathers compelled Dr. Werner to ask the most basic question: Is evolution even true? He does not answer the question in the documentary "Evolution: The Grand Experiment", rather he presents the problems and allows the audience to decide.

The program was released for TV this month to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the publication of the Origin of Species November 24th, 2009. Evolution: The Grand Experiment is scheduled to play on the following networks/stations.

Ape man with human hand

Curators at the Living World Museum at the St. Louis Zoo created this model of an apeman (Lucy) with human hands and feet, but the fossils were not human. On questioning by the press, the staff admitted that the animal did not have human hands, but declined to change the display.


Archaeopteryx

This drawing from the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh shows a bird with scales on its head. It suggests that birds evolved from dinosaurs but scales were not found on the fossil head of this animal.


Archaeopteryx with scaly reptilian head.

This model of Archaeopteryx, on display at the famous Jura Museum in Germany, has a scaly reptilian head. This may suggest to casual museum goers that birds evolved from dinosaurs but scientists have never found scales on the skull of this fossil.


A dinosaur tail was added to this bird to make a "flying dinosaur".

This "flying dinosaur" was created by attaching a dinosaur's tail to a fossil bird to create a "missing link", "evidence that birds evolved from dinosaurs." Although the fraud was uncovered by another scientist, a press conference was held and a news article was printed announcing the "flying dinosaur."
