Lee Berger
“By almost any definition, Homo naledi is not human. But if the present archaeological record reflects the complexity of Homo sapiens accurately, it means that naledi was significantly more complex than sapiens at the time.”
Lee Berger, Cave of Bones: A True Story of Discovery, Adventure, and Human Origins

“Interestingly, like many of the insects, scorpions appear deep in the rocks of the earth. And they are easily recognized in those deep rocks for what they are - scorpions. The reality is that scorpions abruptly appear in the rocks in their completed forms. It's true there used to be scorpions that are no longer with us, but this is no help to the theory of evolution. Nevertheless, scorpions suddenly appearing in the rocks as scorpions is precisely what we would expect on the basis of the Biblical model of creation.”
Vance Nelson, Untold Secrets of Planet Earth: Monumental Monsters
