Guest Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) From This website ""Clifford Burdick (1894-1992) Clifford Burdick, a researcher for the Creation Research Society and a member of the Creation-Science Research Center, is a "flood" geologist who has spent forty years trying to prove that giant humans once roamed the earth and even mingled with the dinosaurs. Burdick has displayed a copy of his Ph.D. from the University of Physical Sciences (Phoenix, Arizona) in Carl Baugh's Glen Rose Creation Evidence Museum. According to Ronald Numbers' The Creationists [2]: "[Creationist Walter Lammerts'] inquiries revealed the University of Physical Science to be nothing more than a registered trademark. As described in its memographed bulletin, 'The University is not an educational institution, but a society of individuals of common interest for the advancement of physical science. There are no campus, professors or tuition fee.'" " I assume "Dr" Burdick was a major source for the article....I can't roll with pretty much anything put out by Creation Scientists...not putting them down, or being "anti-creationist," but I think that they have quite a rep for poor science. This guy's fake doctorate doesn't help the case. Edited August 8, 2011 by notgiganto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wild eyed willy Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I am amazed by the findings....I have believed for quite a long time that our history has many secrets... This wouldn't surprise me at all. Cool artical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HairyGreek Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Paluxy? Oh dear. http://www.badarchaeology.net/data/ooparts/paluxy.php Meh. I can find 10 articles in both directions. It doesn't make what I posted any less interesting to me. Sorry you disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LAL Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 It may be interesting but none of it holds up. Petroglyphs. for instance: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/03/29/creationists-claim-humans-lived-dinosaurs-scientists-disagree/ The age of dinosaurs essentially ended 65 mya with the impact at the tip of what is now the Yucatan peninsula. Modern humans evolved in Africa circa 200, 000 years ago. Do the math. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Let me clarify and say that I don't doubt that many large humanoid remains have been found, and lost, and that many were explainable but some may not have been so readily explainable (BF or BF blood? Other explanation?). There was a recent BFF thread on the Lovelock Cave find that was great. I just can't deal with claims that humans lived with dinosaurs, with fossilized prints as proof. For instance, the one footprint with the trilobite. Was our sandal clad person walking under water, since trilobites were ocean creatures? Just doesn't make sense. The copper axe that the story refers to is a whopping two feet long. Many of the claims in the story fall apart under reasonable scrutiny, IMO. Now, relict dino's walking with humans, that's a whole different story... Edited August 9, 2011 by notgiganto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HairyGreek Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 LAL, I would love to respond but my hands are tied. All my retorts would come from Creationist websites which crosses over the religion rule boundary of the site. You can find some interesting things in the story without accepting all of it, or you can throw the baby out with the bath water because you don't think Creationism has a leg to stand on. I won't debate that point here on the forum because we can't. I have also learned to not do so in private either as proponents of Evolution believe just about everything they are spoon fed from childhood as much as any "religious" person does; and wouldn't concede a point if it meant their own death. It is a shame as there are brilliant scientists on both sides of the debate that could find some common ground and possibly some amazing discoveries but their philosophy, and not science, gets in the way. I thought people could find something without knit picking to read, but if that is not the case, then no biggie. Just move on. I am not going to debate it as it is just divisive and not something I would categorize as even a general Bigfoot discussion. Maybe if they ever open a supernatural discussion area outside the main area as I suggested we can go at it. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LAL Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Now, relict dino's walking with humans, that's a whole different story... Mokele Mbembe maybe? Unless that's a giant Komodo lizard, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Mokele Mbembe maybe? Unless that's a giant Komodo lizard, of course. Who knows? Giant monitor? Other?. Haven't heard anything recently about ol' Mokele Mbembe. If there were dinos still around, the Congo or Amazon or Southeast Asia would be the place that they would turn up, I would think. Perhaps some other unknown animal is to blame for that one, considering how INCREDIBLY long said extant dinos would have to have kept a viable population after mass extinction...What was the quote from Jurassic Park? Something like, "life will find a way." Or perhaps it is just a story, from a time when people may have encountered such a beastie. <shrug> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'm a big John Titor fan, so of course I happen to think it is time traveling tourists that broke the rules, got off the designated path, and left those fossilized regular human sized foot prints that have been found. As far as those prints in the article, why can't they be from some circular critter, like a sand dollar, or something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Build myself a time machine. Those **** time traveling tourists! Couldn't find a time traveling emoticon, so you went with the disappearing wizard, huh? Shoulda used a Stargate one! Which prints from the article are you referring to with the sand dollar thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shore birds survived. So did frogs. In fact, birds are dinosuars. Life did find a way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
