A brainless, faceless, and spineless primitive fish has been found off the coast of Scotland. This is a very primitive form of fish closely related to the ancient ancestors of all vertebrate animals, including modern land animals and modern fish. The creature is so primitive that it doesn't even have fully developed fins to swim. Instead of a brain or spine, it has a large nerve cord down it's back that acts as an archaic form of brain and spine.

Scientists are mapping it's DNA in order to understand how vertebrate animals first evolved. This fish is remarkable since it promises to unlock the mysteries surrounding the evolution of our ancestors from primitive life without backbones to more advanced animal life with fully developed skeletons and backbones.

Creationists, be very afraid. Science may soon be able to better understand and explain many of the unanswered questions surrounding the evolution of our ancestor species from simple invertebrates to complex vertebrates thanks to this ancient faceless, brainless and spineless fish.

But I wouldn't worry too much yet if you are a Creationist. I'm sure the Kent Hovinds of this world will shortly come up with a way to twist this discovery by using Bible passages, and cherry picked scientific data taken completely out of context.

I'll pass on fear.

Looks like evolution runs on brainlessness now.

And besides:
Whether it can or can't isn't an issue with me.

I don't believe it did -- since the Bible says otherwise.

As I have said before, I don't care if scientists can create the next Viswanathan Anand in a laboratory, it's not going to change my mind about what happened in BC 4004.

AV, the only thing that happened around 4000 BC was the domestication of the horse. I'm afraid the Earth was around long before that.

Give mother nature credit for creating the ancestor of our modern politicians in the form of a brainless, spineless, and faceless fish. No God could be capable of such a sense of humor.:thumbsup:

Well today is your lucky day. Figuring out if God has a sense of humor is not integral to determining whether or not wind and rain can build the fish.
