"Rewrite" is not my word, it’s the word used in the newspaper article:
"’Ardi’ May Rewrite the Story of Humans"

Common descent isn’t the ‘fact’ that some scientists would have you believe.
The fossil record supports stasis, not gradual evolution. Darwin admitted that, and his answer was that the fossil record was incomplete, and that with time the ‘gaps’ would be filled in. However, the fossil record looks much the same today as it did in Darwin’s time. That’s why the Punctuated Equilibrium hypothesis had to be invented, so that evolutionists could keep their theory.
I like this quote from the pro-evolution magazine National Geographic. They described the fossil record as being like “a film of evolution from which 999 of every 1,000 frames have been lost on the cutting-room floor.”
Try watching a movie like that. Your best guess as to what the movie was about would likely be completely wrong. Same goes for evolutionists. They have their speculations – which are probably dead wrong. The problem is, they tell everyone it’s a ‘fact.’
Ardi is just an extinct ape, it is no early human. Any connection between us and Ardi is pure guesswork.
THE ORIG WORD OF GOD THE BIBLE…TRY NRSV OR NKJ
Science isn’t static. As new things are learned, discovered, or observed, the ‘rewrite’ will take place to incorporate the newly acquired knowledge.
The rewrite about human origins is the one that accounts for the evidence.
You are right, we should do like Fundies and stick with the first guess we make, no matter how much more evidence comes along later that shows that guess to be wrong.
I do hope you still stick to blood-letting to cure fevers and other medical practices from centuries ago that have been abandoned due to new theories, so you don’t look like too much of a hypocrite.
Besides, this discovery only refines a few fine details and actually does a great deal to support previous theory. That headline they used was just to grab attention. It’s not so much of a rewrite as it is starting on a new chapter.
And your mythology written by man is infallible
Science isn’t dogmatic, at least scientists understand that their understanding is not complete
The great thing about scientific theory is that it does change as new evidence comes along.
The beauty of science is in its ability to be questioned, critiqued, challenged, examined and changed to fit new observations.
Try any of that with any religion and you’ll find yourself burning for eternity.
why is that a problem?
no ever claimed to know the answer to everything. science is relatively new discipline. unlike religion which melenia old and still no evidence of god.
It sounds like you didn’t even bother to read the article.
This isn’t "rewriting" the story. What part of "further confirms" didn’t you understand?
>>Another fossil, another theory:
No, it’s finding another name on a really, really big family tree that has already been long since established.
It’s just the same theory which has been amended, genius.
Tell me, which of the 75 versions of the Bible is correct?
I would prefer a modern theory that gets more right every few years to one that has been wrong for 4000 years.
Wrong. There is new evidence. Nothing s rewritten. The new evidence does not change anything about human origin, merely adds another data point along the line(s) of evolution leading to homo sapiens.
Stop confusing science with religious fantasy.
no one will ever know the truth and are humans capable of understanding the truth, its like trying to explain how a Plasma TV works if you are a ameoba
Oh I see Rev. wing wang woo woo two changed her username to fat chance with jesus
Science has always said it doesn’t have all the answers, but it strives to find them. When was the last time religion said ‘oops’? 6,000 years old? Flat Earth, at the center of everything? Please….
the Bible has NEVER been "re-written"
give God a chance.
Did you read it? It isn’t another theory, it is additional information. As more information becomes available, revision is sometimes necessary. This is how it should be.
It is ludicrous to say that a religious viewpoint is superior because the holy book doesn’t change. If we went by that absurd maxim then we only end up assigning equal weight to the scientology opinion as we do the christian one.
They just keep guessing don’t they? We don’t have to guess, we know we were created by Jehovah God, through his son Jesus.
No, it’s all part of the same scientific theory of evolution. It’s juggling the timeline because they have added information. It doesn’t change the common ancestor fact with regard to human origins. It actually adds more data to it and helps further pin it down.
thank you for sharing that.
DT: No science is not static and that is, in and of itself, reason enough NOT to tout evolution as an absolute fact since those "facts" keep shifting… like where life started… what we evolved FROM.
Aspiring to be French:; Congratulations on acknowledging that it’s a THEORY. That’s all it is. If there were absolute proof, the facts would not keep changing. The earth is round. That is a FACT that will not change no matter how much science studies this wonderful planet.Evolution is a theory that rests on shifting sands, not on a rock solid foundation.
Its not really a new theory, the idea that Chimps and humans have both evolved from a not exactly chimp like ancestor has been around for a while. This just leads more evidence to that.
And if you did some research you would notice that no one in the scientific community uses a term like "Theory of human evolution" Because it hasn’t been completed yet due to still missing evidence. There are many hypotheses around, and Ardi actually happens to support one that was already there.
This new evidence does nothing to change the Theory of Evolution… If anything though, it just adds more evidence to it because it shows how chimps have evolved too in more detail!
Another fossil. A slight twist to the same theory.
We evolved. Get over it.
no-one knows.
Science doesn’t stand pat on the currently held theories – as new evidence comes to light, they amend or discard them as needed to accomodate the new facts. You see this as a problem? I don’t…
Let’s start with something very important: The Washington Post is not a scientific journal and some terms, such as "rewrite," can be overlooked.
Now, here’s something from the article you missed:
"The discovery of Ardi ‘further confirms that Ethiopia is the cradle of humankind,’ said Yohannes Haile-Selassie, the paleontologist who found the first two bones of Ardi in 1994. "
and
"The scientists who found Ardi do not contend that she necessarily evolved into Lucy. The human line of primates could have splintered, with some species turning into genetic dead ends. Lucy’s line of primates could have diverged from Ardi’s line long before Ardi lived. Even so, White said he believes that his team has documented an evolutionary sequence that shows, at the genus level, where people came from. Ardipithecus, then Australopithecus, then Homo. "
and
"The origin of the human species via evolution from earlier primates is beyond scientific dispute. "
I see you read the article with the same level of effort as you read the Bible.
Man can rewrite all they want, only God can change how it happened and any Christian can tell you God Created man.
I question 4.4 million years. I think it was more like 4,261,322 days.6 hours and 44 minutes. I bet they have a photo out there too. Or you’ll see a good sketch artist making one. 110lbs. I question that . I think more like 104. If she was on the atkins diet. She walked on the ground??hmmmm.Or did she sleep on the ground and climb in the trees? How amazing is science. I wonder how many cavities she had, and if it was from eating too many Chocolate covered bananas. Hopefully, they’ll find the remnants of her dentist and making that will give another clue? Next time I come across a bone..I better save it. It may be a long lost relative ,deserving of a proper burial….mark
I don’t believe in man’s words. I believe in Jehovah God word’s!
