Fossil Finds
This three-inch jawbone fossil is from a piranha ancestor that measured up to three feet long, four times bigger than its modern descendants. Megapiranha paranensis lived around nine million years ago and could be a link between today's flesh-eating piranhas and their vegetarian cousins, pacu. The fossil was found in Argentina in the early 1900s, but was not studied until the 1980s.

"Babybopgrl101 07:15 PMNov 05 2009 Ok... this is to Shadow Hunter... it clearly states in the Bible how God made things and it says nothing about evolution... and if there was such thing as evolution... Why dont we still have monkey people today???"----Oh my goodness, you're typical fourth grader could field that question for you. We don't have modern man's ancestors today for many the same reason we don't have mammoths and smilodons today, they weren't able to adapt to changing conditions and increased competition as well as their descendants and they died out. If you're not one of the idiots/nuts that are still denying that dinosaurs and mamoths once existed even though they're not around anymore you should never have asked such an asinine question. There are also plenty of species that were here a fairly recently that aren't here today, and it looks very likely that some of the species that are here today won't be here a hundred years from now.

God reveals Himself in creation. but some have exchanged the Truth for a lie. Darwin would of rejected his own theories by his own writings now that the fossil record shows no transition fossils. The greatest lie ever, evolution it has already been exposed but how do scientists back out of it now.

I'm still amazed at the idiots who think the bible is real. A catholic priest once quoted. " the bible is NOT a text book for geology!

Ok... this is to Shadow Hunter... it clearly states in the Bible how God made things and it says nothing about evolution... and if there was such thing as evolution... Why dont we still have monkey people today??? That is my one question about evolution... try to explain that one.... PS if your looking up the part about how God made things in the Bible.... you can find it in the front of your Bible in Genesis chapter 1 verses 3-31

I love how people have turned the comment box here into a political chat.Anyway, I think this article is really interesting. It overwhelms me that paleontologists are still finding new species of dinosaurs. For some reason, just reading the article made me want to watch the Jurassic Park movie again. Ha ha.

Kr2sd where in the bible does it mention dinosaurs? Where in Genesis does God tell Noah not Hoah to keep the dinosuars off the boat? Once again uninformed closed minded christians show exactly why survival of the fittest needs to be allowed. Cause all the idiots like you are poisioning the gene pool.
