http://objectiveministries.org/creation/projectpterosaur.html Sorry all, but this site is not a hoax -- it is serious. Explore the links on this page and you will find it is real. Creationism in the USA is growing stronger every day, and these people are able to create an internet presence that lends them an air of legitimacy to uneducated people. Most of the people who hit this site have never held a scientific journal in their hands. Evolution, like the other sciences, is cloaked in the secrecy of scientific literature that are not widely available, and must compete with fundamentalist churches that drive their message home with Sunday school, home schooling and school boards that are infiltrated by religious advocates. A few web sites like Mike Everhart's wonderful "Oceans of Kansas" site bring science into the reach of the layman -- but how many paleontologists consider it a part of their job to create public access web sites? I once thought the internet would give every individual access to knowledge -- but it also gives every crackpot a chance to reach millions. More than ever before, we need an electorate that understands the scientific problems that threaten our world. I challenge every member of this board to fight creationism by creating their own web sites, and keep these people from sliding into ignorance -- which is no joke! -- Jim Davison http://www.geocities.com/auralgo/2TopCone.htm
