"Distant Human Ancestor Had Shark Head"

[SlavicBaptist]

Peer far enough back in the human family lineage, and you'll find a fishy ancestor that looked surprisingly like a shark.

In fact, this now-extinct fish was among the first to split from sharks, whose bones are made of cartilage, to evolve into a line of tough-boned species that includes everything from bony fish to human beings. A new analysis finds that this controversial class of animals was more shark-like than expected.

"The common ancestors of all jawed vertebrates today organized their heads in a way that resembled sharks," study researcher John Finarelli, a vertebrate biologist at University College, Dublin, said in a statement. "Given what we now know about the interrelatedness of early fishes, these results tell us that while sharks retained these features, bony fishes moved away from such conditions."

It's amazing the nonsense the "evolutionists" will make up to try to prop up their theory that has "fallen and can't get up!!"

People need to continue to follow the Genesis account and not fall into silly stuff like this shark story. First it was a monkey thingy, now it is a shark thingy???

Just so you guys know we have a Creation vs. Evolution section on the main site if you want to read more: Creation vs. Evolution - Genesis, Charles Darwin, Creationism, YEC, OEC

Thus says the LORD, your redeemer, and he that formed you from the womb, I am the LORD that makes all things; that stretches forth the heavens alone; that spreads abroad the earth by myself;That frustrates the omens of the liars, and makes diviners mad; that turns wise men backward, and makes their knowledge foolish; Isaiah 44:24-25

Can't say it any better than that!

Is that why these guys wear theses?

It looks a little like a shark's head.


It's obvious some people around here aren't as evolved as others...

If you get a chance, compare the "Pope Hat" with the priest of Dagon Hat. That's an eye opener!

Heh, I read the whole article {not sure why, but I did} and no where did he make the connection from human to shark. I can't believe he believes his own drivel.
