Cataract
surgery was performed in ancient Babylon so regularly that the prices were
rigorously set by the government and malpractice was punished by the loss of a
hand. Acupuncture works. Atlantis is very likely the isle of
Thera. Britain is slowly tilting along
a line running from Devon to Yorkshire.
North and west of this line is rising, south and east are sinking. Contrary to the “Global warming” theory, the
measured temperature of the earth is actually decreasing over time, not
rising. Despite recreating the supposed
exact conditions at which evolutionist believe life began, science has never
been able to create even the simplest forms of life in the laboratory.
Historically, salt is the most important mineral in national geography. Plants feel pain. Coin operated product dispensers, odometers, steam turbines, and
remote control doors were invented in Alexandria in the first century AD. Phoenicians circumnavigated the entire
African coast from Suez to Gibraltar in the sixth century BC. Colds are not caused by cold. Hair and nails do not continue to grow after
death. Hair cannot turn white
instantly. Dirt, not rust, causes
tetanus. Men have the same number of
ribs as women but women have fewer vertebrae.
A man’s brain is typically smaller than a woman’s due to shrinkage. The size of a human’s brain has no effect on
intelligence. Flying fish do not
fly. Moths do not eat cloth. The largest measured octopus is 32 feet
across, squids are much larger. Giant
squids eat whales. Catgut is made from
the intestines of almost every animal except for cats. Ostriches do not bury their heads in the
sand. Swans do not sing before
dying. Mice prefer candy to
cheese. Camels do not carry water in
their humps. The garden of Eden did exist. Cinderella wore fur slippers in the original
tale, glass occurred as a result of a mis-translation. Money is not the root of all evil, the love
of money is. Marie Antoinette actually
said “Let them eat bread”. Holmes never
said “Elementary, my dear Watson”. The
ice age may have been caused by a shifting of the earth’s magnetic poles, not
by global cooling. Grey whales have
been discovered with sucker scars from attacks by giant squids which, by
extrapolation, are larger than a house.
The Maine was sabotaged. Every
major mountain chain in the world has a legend of a large, hairy man resembling
the yeti. The Protocols of Zion are a
forgery. The Cardiff Giant, the
Piltdown Man, and the Nebraska Man have all been proven to be frauds yet all
have made appearances in evolutionary textbooks, even after they were
disproven. Archaeopteryx exists in the
fossil record after birds, not before, and therefore cannot be a transitional
species. Shakespeare was not Bacon but
was, instead, William Shakespeare. The
existence of the Giant Turtle of Hoan Kiem lake was verified in 1996 after
centuries of debunking. Molecular
diamagnetism can float a frog. The
Tasmanian wolf has been extinct since 1936.
A Tasmanian wolf has been captured in New Guinea in March, 1997. America, this is simply the truth.
