Welcome to all of the new subscribers!
This is the “When I get a round tooit” Creation/Evolution newsletter from Ian Juby and the traveling Creation Science Museum of Canada.

In this newsletter:
1) Good grief – now they’re saying the dinosaurs froze to death!
2) Now what can I do for you?
3) Aliens and Creation – new video!
4) Website & channel picks
5) Portable museum: TWO containers!
6) New CrEvo Rant

***********************************************************
1) Good grief – now they’re saying the dinosaurs froze to death!

If you recall, in my last newsletter I responded to a symposium of international scientists who had finally come together to decide that it was an asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs (see “41 Scientists finally figure it out…?”).

I also showed you why they were wrong. Sure enough, not even two weeks after I sent out that newsletter, another article came out from some European researchers, claiming that no, it was not an asteroid impact, but it was in fact cold that killed the dinosaurs! (frigid weather, not the common cold)

Supposed “100 million year old hair” found in some amber is identical to that of modern mammalian hair:

http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn18937-csi-100-million-years-bc-oldest-mammalian-hair-found.html

As we read some ten times in the first chapter of Genesis, God created life to reproduce after its kind. Evolution operates with radical changes in an organism over time.  Therefore we have a nice example of some scientific evidence we can look for to figure out if creation or evolution is true.

With the discovery of this fossil hair, we have another example of what we see in the fossil record: stasis - things reproducing faithfully after their kind.  Even going by the evolutionary timescale (which I do not believe, I see the evidence as quite good for an earth that is young and not billions of years old), what we see in the fossil record is stasis – everything stays the same, affirming the Biblical account of creation and refuting the evolutionary myth.

Those of you who’ve read my response to Sciam’s “The Human Pedigree” (http://ianjuby.org/jan2009sciam2.html#pedigree) will already be aware of my opinion of the Neanderthals: They’re human. Everything about them is human – even passing the Oculus^TM test with flying colours (skull on left):

A new study of Neanderthal genetic code has just been unveiled, concluding that Neanderthals bred with humans:

http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2010/05/06/tech-neanderthal-genome.html

In order to breed with humans, they must be human. Now of course, I’ve been saying this for years – so it’s nice to see some affirmation of this from a genetic study.  However, this isn’t the first genetic study that’s been carried out.  In fact, as Dr. Sean Pitman points out in his web article (http://www.detectingdesign.com/earlyman.html about 2/3 of the way down the page) the human samples were farter apart from each other, genetically, then they were from Neanderthal!

There are no ape-men.  Everything about Neanderthal in particular, is completely human.

“CrEvo News Bites” are short commentaries from Ian Juby on current events relating to creation and evolution.  You can subscribe by visiting his blog at: http://ianjuby.org/newsletter.  He has many informative hours of video available for free viewing on line, including his exhaustive, 12-hour “Complete Creation” video series – a veritable video encyclopedia.  http://completecreation.orghttp://youtube.com/wazooloo

A ScienceDaily article talked about “Mayan plumbing” that had been discovered, showing they had pressurized water systems:

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/05/100504155421.htm

Now this is fascinating, but let us not forget that we still don’t know how on earth all of these cultures (like the Mayans) built the pyramids, so it should come as no surprise that they had things like plumbing!

It is an evolutionary concept to suggest that people were “stupider” in the past (i.e., we were evolving from less-intelligent apes, according to evolutionary theory).  Adam and Eve of the Bible (the first created humans) were super-human, living to almost 1,000 years old.  Just think of all that could be learned in that time.  There are plenty of examples of ancient technology, including some examples which we still cannot explain to this day.  The people who constructed these buildings/artifacts were so smart, that many have tried to explain it away as instruction from alien intelligence!

I discuss this in great detail in part 8 of “The Complete Creation,” viewable for free on line, complete with free home school resources for the videos at:  http://completecreation.org

Welcome to all of the new subscribers!
This is the “When I get a round tooit” Creation/Evolution newsletter from Ian Juby and the traveling Creation Science Museum of Canada.

***********************************************************
1) 41 Scientists finally figure out…?
Special thanks to all of my intrepid reporters (and a few atheists and assorted bad guys) who called my attention to this report last month. I apologize for being so late getting to it, but I was very busy in Newfoundland speaking in sooo many places it was dizzying!

So there’s these 41 scientists, see?  And they got together to finally decide what on earth it was that killed the dinosaurs, see?  So after much deliberation they concluded that it was, in fact, the Chicxulub impact that killed the dinosaurs, see?

Here’s a report here from Reuters:
http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE6233YW20100304?loomia_ow=t0:s0:a49:g43:r3:c0.100000:b31301396:z0

If you’re really confused as to why on earth you’re getting this newsletter, you may have forgotten you signed up for it at one of Ian’s lectures, or you got it due to an error in the cyberspace post office.  See removal instructions at the bottom of the newsletter.

In this far-too-packed newsletter (I’ll keep the articles short because there’s just so much to cover):
1) Portable Museum: First shipping container arrives
2) Rotten Paleontology
3) CrEvo Rants, Volume II – now on DVD!
4) Nuther New Rant Uploaded!

5) Youtube channels you gotta see
6) Upcoming talks and tours
7) Another give away – Brock Lee’s brand-spankin’ new book!
8) Creation Dinosaur Dig with Dr. Aaron Judkins
9) Mailbag: Comments on “Persuaded by the Evidence” movie trailer
< ***********************************************************
1) Portable Museum: First Shipping Container Arrives.
Praise the Lord with me please!  Thanks to the financial support of many people, I was able to get the first shipping container, which is now sitting in my mother’s driveway (please pray for my mother who has to put up with my antics), ready to be converted.  To me, it’s a thing of beauty!  A downpayment has already been made on the second container, identical to the first one:

It’s a 40′ long, insulated, climate-controlled “high cube,” which means that it is taller than your average container, as it’s 9’6″ on the outside.  It was more expensive to get the insulated version, but it would have been about the same cost (because I would’ve had to have insulated a standard container anyway), but saves many weeks of hard work to insulate the containers.

“Climate controlled” means it already has heating and air conditioning built in.  Again, assuming that I’m able to use these systems, then that also saves a whole wack of more time and money.  When looking at the inside, just remember that with the walls sliding out four feet on either side, the interior size will almost double.

I am super “wired for sound” excited about this, please keep praying!  And if you can, please chip in financially!  I have to focus on paying for the second container before I can start major work on the containers. (more…)

Hey Happy New Year eh!

In this newsletter:
1) Texas Fishapod fry!
2) The Evolution of Avon
3) CrEvo Rants, Volume I now on DVD! (plus some new rants)
4) Portable Creation Museum update
5) Upcoming talks and tours
6) Long overdue give-away!

***********************************************************

1) Texas Fishapod fry!

Now I’m not a big fish eater, but I have to admit, the
first time I had Texas grilled Catfish, I loved it!  So there’s no
better way to start off the new year then with a good fish fry, only
today, we’re going to fry some “fishapods.”

Bad year for Darwin

Welp, we’re just wrapping up the “year of Darwin,” which was supposed
to be a celebration of Darwin’s birthday, and his genius penned in his
earth-shaking book “Origin of the species.”  Problem is, it’s been
a baaaad year for Darwin.

You’ll recall in several newsletters from the past year (1, 2 , 3)
that the mythological evolutionary tree has suffered repeated hacking,
uprooting, pruning and grafting.  Well the subject of today’s
first story lops off a major branch….again!

The find is “very old” fossil footprints found in Poland:

http://sciencenow.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/2010/106/2?etoc

http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2010/jan/06/fossil-footprints-land-animal
(complete with nice video from Nature magazine)

Also, a nice video on the find:

http://news.yahoo.com/video/science-15749654/17504589

Supposedly 395 million years
old, these footprints have toes and are similar in many ways to large salamander tracks. In layman’s terms, what this means from an evolutionary standpoint is that tetrapods (four-footed, four-legged creatures) were around 395 million years ago. (more…)

Hey Happy New Year eh!

In this newsletter:
1) “Persuaded by the Evidence” official trailer released
2) New CrEvo Rant released - and a favour to ask
3) Stop the presses – hominids were smarter than us?!?!?
4) Portable museum update
5) Upcoming talks and tours
6) Joseph’s genealogy round-up!

***********************************************************
1) “Persuaded by the Evidence” official trailer released

As mentioned in previous newsletters, I interviewed six men for a movie this past year.  “Persuaded by the Evidence” was inspired by the book of the same title, and is simply the testimonies of multiple atheists and evolutionists who are now young-earth creationists and born-again Christians.

Being produced in High-definition, you will find this video a real treat.

You can watch the trailer – in High Definition – on youtube via the official movie website:

What you see above is two shipping containers, modified and joined together into a portable museum.  This is the next step I’m taking towards building a permanent creation museum in Ottawa, Ontario.

Please pray for me and this project – and the souls who will visit this museum!

In this “Special Edition” newsletter:
1) Ardi ar arrrr…
2) nuthin’.
No really, that’s it – that’s all that’s going to be in this newsletter!


***********************************************************
1) Ardi ar arrr…

Artist’s best guess as to what Ardipithecus ramidus may have looked like. Okay, so maybe it didn’t stand upright like that, and maybe it didn’t have human eyes like that, and maybe it was a male and not a female, and maybe it….well, it’s close at least! Drawing by J.H. Matternes

The propaganda machine goes into overdrive:
Got a barrage of emails this week from my honourable news watch team regarding a supposed “Missing link” found this week which “proves” our ancestral relationship to the apes.
In fact, Science magazine even ran a special issue just on this fossil, CBC’s “Quirks and Quarks” devoted a segment of their program to it (downloadable as a 22 meg MP3), National Geographic had a spread on it as well.
Seeing as how there’s been so much fuss over this fossil, I thought I’d devote a newsletter in response.

As is typical, this “missing link” is presented with impressive pomp and circumstance before the emporer comes out wearing no clothes. We’ve seen this before time and again with Ida, Puijila, and even Archaeoraptor – the fraudulent fossil that was brazenly heralded with many bold claims as “proof of evolution” before it was quietly sidelined after it was discovered to be a fake.  I still, to this day, occasionally have people bring up Archaeoraptor as proof of evolution.  This is the power of propaganda.

1) On the road again…

Greetings all,
Sorry to be so tardy in getting newsletters out – I’m currently on the road all over Alberta, speaking at Bible Camps, mostly to teens.  It’s been a wonderful time of salvations and encouragement for everyone, including myself.  I’ll be speaking at the 10 day teen week at Ross Haven Bible Camp, and speaking at Mayerthorpe Baptist church on August 9th.  After camp, lucky me, I get to go home!

Please pray for the teens, for me, and for the vehicle as I put on a lot of miles both getting out here and back, as well as driving all over Alberta.  And thank you for praying!
