They were disproved a long time ago to be part pig bones. So why do evolution still teach it like its a fact that backs them up? It's sad, they are misleading people.

The Lucy skeleton is supposed to be an intermediate between ape and man. There has been a lot of discussion of Lucy's knee joint by creationists and much misunderstanding. The best I can now determine is that there were 2 knee joints, one found nearby and one far away. The one found far away was found two to three kilometers away from the skull and 60-70 meters deeper in the strata. Dr. Johansen does not claim that the knee joint belonged to Lucy. Instead, it was part of another fossil he found some time earlier. He does put them together logically, though, claiming that they were of the same species. Thi Lucy is an example of Australopithecus afarensis, and other examples of this species have been found since then.
Dr. Charles Oxnard completed the most sophisticated computer analysis of australopithecine fossils ever undertaken, and concluded that the australopithecines have nothing to do with the ancestry of man whatsoever, and are simply an extinct form of ape (Fossils, Teeth)

Lucy - these bones were promoted as a pre-human ancestor. But the evidence shows that Lucy is just species of chimpanzee. See http://www.icr.org/pubs/btg-b/btg-011b.htm

Because they will do or say anything to have people believe that there is no God. SAD.

Go to college. Maybe it'll keep you from posting ignorant crap like that.
Long LIVE EVOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I must say more about this. God and evolution are not mutually exclusive. It's sad...America has been brainwashed into thinking that scientists are evil and trying to corrupt the country...let's see....how many wars have been started as a result of a scientist doing an experiment? How many have been started as a result of religion? Yeah, that's what I thought.
Whats more...evolution doesn't even QUESTION the origin of life; that's a task for physicists. You sad sad people who get lead into believing whatever religious leaders or the Bible tell you to. Here's an idea: start USING your brain (the wonderful one made as a result of natural selection) and realize that there's a reason that Jesus referred to his followers as sheep.

Why don't you try reading actual scientific journals on the subject instead of christian pseudo-science?

lol. i have seen sculptings of the bones of lucy. they are obviously not pig bones. and it would be impossible to pass them off as pig bones too. you may not have noticed, but the skeletons of primates and pigs are very, very different. a child could tell them apart. you think a scientist could not?

They proved no such thing. Is this what Christianity teaches us , that lying and deception are ok?

Make sure your source is reliable. I sincerely doubt it is.
