Lucy or Lies

I love science. Science is such an awesome and interesting subject.

What is Science?

Science means ‘to know’. The dictionary definitions tend to focus on systematic classification and careful collection of data: Things that can be observed, tested, and demonstrated.

Why are there lies in our text books?

So why is there so much that isn’t science being taught in our school’s science lesson? Why are there so many lies in our text books? And why are there still displays in our national museums that teach these lies as facts?

Deborah and "Lucy"

‘Lucy’

Last June I took a trip to the National History Museum in London.

As you can see the original bones of ‘Lucy’ are on display for all to see. What they forget to tell you though, in the little explanation underneath, is that there is much controversy over whether ‘Lucy’ is the ‘missing link’ between humans and apes or whether she is just simply another chimpanzee.

Donald Johanson used some very bold and imaginative language concerning his find and was very confident in his claims that ‘Lucy’ walked upright.

Perhaps these claims were a bit premature. More data has since been discovered which conflicts with Johanson’s hypothesis. Now Johanson has two choices. He either has to discard his earlier hypothesis and admit that ‘Lucy’ never walked up right, or he has to find a plausible explanation for the observations that conflict his hypothesis.

To add to his problems ‘Lucy’ is not even made up from one skeleton, but is several different finds pieced together. In fact, I believe the knee bone was found one year earlier, one and a half miles away, and in a completely different layer of strata, from where the rest of her was found. A real scientist would not put that knee bone with that skeleton. A real scientist would be brave enough to admit that ‘Lucy’, as she is, is not scientific. There is no evidence that she is a ‘missing link’ or an ancestor of humans.

Are you being lied to?

If you have Advanced Biology by Michael Roberts, Michael Reiss, and Grace Monger, then you have been lied to. Check out page 772 and see a lovely picture of Lucy! How many more lies are they telling you as facts? I can spot at least TEN!

If you would like to receive a free DVD called “Lies in the Text Books” which exposes the lies, and gives you the real science, then please contact me with your address and I will send one to you free of charge. Or you can check out a leaflet called “Are you being Brainwashed?”
