No.
Nebraska Man (Hesperopithecus haroldcookii) was a mislabeled tooth that belonged to an extinct peccary known as Prosthennops serus.
My guess is that scientists were so desperate to find a "missing link" that, when this tooth was found, jumped the gun and labeled this thing as an "ape of the western world."
If I gave example after example after example of scientists jumping the gun, I would get moderated.
That's what bugs me.
It's okay for them to bring up acts in the Bible where men, women, children, and animals were ordered to be killed, but let me bring up just seven people who died in a recent tragedy, and they run to mamma and complain.
After what? five years?Note that the error was uncovered and corrected by other scientists, not by creationists.
So what was Nebraska Man? myth or legend?
I'm not so sure it was a fraud, per se.It was a fraud and was scientifically exposed as such but the press at the time blew it out of all proportion.
Who named this thing Hesperopithecus haroldcookii? the press?Most scientists at the time were quite skeptical but, as I said, the press grabbed the story and ran with it. It took time to expose the fraud for what it was but AV1611 seems annoyed that they did and suggests a conspiracy theory.
After what? five years?
After the damage had been done in the way of getting more evolution driven into our heads?
Literal creationists would never have made that mistake.
Scientists are notorious for lighting fires, then putting them out.
We have our faults too.As opposed to creationists, who invent lying arguments (like the 2nd law of thermodynamics making evolution impossible) and then continue to repeat them after they've been shown to be false, never admitting their mistake?
is it possible that even a myth has at least a tiny bit of scientific truth to it?
Ummmm, for some reason the theory of Evolution comes to mind

Well that's a good one if you're like me and say that Christianity and evolution can coexist with one another.
Oh, of course they can...they do.
In fact, you can't have evolution without Christianity.
*The same is true for Marxism...
Well, I don't believe that we evolved directly from monkeys,.. but I'm pretty sure we evolved from what humans first looked like at the beginning of creation. Also I do believe that it's been proven that a big bang was the start to life here on earth,.. so who or what caused the big bang? It all seems to fit together like a puzzle to me.
Actually scientists have it backwards (what else is new).Well, I don't believe that we evolved directly from monkeys,.. but I'm pretty sure we evolved from what humans first looked like at the beginning of creation. Also I do believe that it's been proven that a big bang was the start to life here on earth,.. so who or what caused the big bang? It all seems to fit together like a puzzle to me.
Well we didn't evolve from (modern) monkeys, they are our distant cousins.
And the Big Bang happened long before the earth physically existed.
I think he means the big bang occurred 13,700,000,000 BC, leading to the Earth's formation in 4,543,000 BC.I agree to the first part that you said but I don't understand the second.

Their wording changes with the weather.Alright thanks, it's just how that it was worded that threw me off.
