BIOLOGY
In 1912 Charles Dawson announced the discovery of one a break up of maxilar, two molar teeth and one I break up of skull, had been the evidences acclaimed for the connoisseurs as test of the existence of a man-monkey that existed behind between 300 a thousand and 1 million of years.
But in 1953, or either, more than 40 years later, the scientists had started to suspect that the fossil one was a fraud. The bone to maxilar age of one orangotango, the teeth had been worked and the colorful bones and the skull belong to a common woman.
The fraud was clamorous, in the occasion of the discovery of these bones somebody already declared that it had to be a fraud, but the scientists had ignored innumerable evidences. Easiness with that the scientific authorities had been ludibriadas shows power of influence of ideias daily pay-conceived existing between evolucionistas, that they annul the reason to defend its certainties, leaving religious scientists and in foot of equality in that it says respect to the pure faith, and unconditional.
