  2. Let us recaull the basic creationists arguments:

    It is not so old, because carbon dating is not correct!
    It is not a different species because it is just a dwarf or kripple what so ever!
    God himself put it there to test out faith!
    It can not fill any gap, because there was no evolutionary history!

    Damn I forgot something... and I know that, because just when I think everything is settled, the next idiot comes with the next stupid idea...

    Anyway, nice find, and this one has an extremely long tail, and it is german!

    Cheers Arend
