Why It Matters! Ardipithecus ramidus: The latest entry into the evolutionary fraud sweepstakes
Those who ignore history are condemned to repeat it. Its truth could not be better illustrated than with the latest entry into the evolutionists’ fantasy human family tree, Ardipithecus ramidus. Ardipithecus fossils were found over 10 years ago, but were not given their present level of publicity until they were needed. The need for Ardipithecus arose when the former “star” of the evolutionary human family tree, Australopithecus afarensis, nicknamed Lucy; had lost some of her luster so that a substitute had to be invented; so arose “Ardi”.
While the fossils themselves are quite real, the story about them is only the result of evolutionists’ fevered imaginations. Both Lucy and Ardi are really just the fossils of chimpanzees, not significantly different from present day chimpanzees. The dates that are used have simply been invented as part of the total invention of human evolution. The color, hairiness and behavior of these creatures are also totally the result of evolutionists’ imaginations.
Fakes are a regular part of evolutionism. Occasionally the fossils themselves are deliberately falsified, such as with Piltdown Man and Archaeoraptor, but in most cases the fossils are real and, it is the stories that are faked.
The reason is quite simple, when you don’t have the facts; you have to invent the stories. There is an old proverb that applies to evolutionists’ stories, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
