Jurassic Beavers Challenge Current Mammal Theories

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the ancient-canadian-transportation dept.

Bombula writes "According to a BBC article, Castorocauda lutrasimilis, a beaver-like creature discovered in the Jiulongshan Formation in China which apparently lived 164 million years ago, poses challenges to conventional theory of mammalian history. That is, of course, assuming this is a genuine fossil - no small assumption, given Chinese fossils' track record of forgery, fabrication, and fraud."

    "Chinese fossils' track record of forgery, fabrication, and fraud"
    That applies to all of China's `inventions`...

    If you didn't notice my subjectline and `inventions`, maybe you need glasses, that is a Chinese invention too.

    It was a goddamn joke. He was poking fun at the very mentality you're criticizing.

    just so you know, the reason why noone is replying is not cause everyone agrees with you or is unsure of whether or not you're right. No. The reason is because it's kind of sad that you see some fake fossils and then suddenly, in your mind, all of this science business is a hoax. All of the fossils that have been presented throughout your life are fake also. HALLA FREAK LUUJAH!!! No, noone is replying because they're kind of finding it hard to believe someone actually feels this way. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
