Introduction: In early July, 2000 Alvis Delk, assisted by James Bishop (both of Stephenville, Texas), was working in the Cretaceous limestone on the McFall property at the Paluxy River near Glen Rose, Texas and discovered a pristine human footprint intruded by a dinosaur footprint. This discovery was made in the vicinity of McFall I and II Sites where the Creation Evidence Museum team has excavated since the Spring of 1982. The eleven-inch human footprint matches seven other such footprints of the same dimensions in the “Sir George Series,” named in honor of His Excellency Governor General Ratu Sir George Cacobau of Fiji.[2] Scientific Verification of Footprint Authenticity: The fossil was transported to a professional laboratory where 800 X-rays were performed in a CT Scan procedure. Laboratory technicians verified compression and distribution features clearly seen in both prints, human and dinosaur. This removes any possibility that the prints were carved or altered. Importance of Discovery: Professor James Stewart Monroe, writing in Journal of Geological Education candidly asserted that “Human footprints in geologically ancient strata would indeed call into doubt many conventional geological concepts.”[3] Professor David H. Milne of The Evergreen State College, Olympia, Washington and Professor Steven D. Schafersman of the Department of Geology, Rice University, Houston, Texas made further admissions in writing that “Such an occurrence, if verified, would seriously disrupt conventional interpretations of biological and geological history and would support the doctrines of creationism and catastrophism.”[4] Professor Steven M. Stanley in The New Evolutionary Timetable opined that “any topsy-turvy sequence of fossils would force us to rethink our theory…As Darwin recognized, a single geographic inconsistency would have nearly the same power of destruction.”[5]

More crap about Paluxy River at this late date?? The Paluxy River has genuine dinosaur prints ... but during the Depression, to try to turn the River into a tourist attraction, a great many of the dinosaur prints were "embellished" - usually by staining the rock to highlight the prints, and sometimes by deliberately carving human-like footprints for size comparison (also, some of the dinosaur prints, being partial such as if the dinosaur had been running, looked a tad like human prints but without toes - and some people added the toes by carving or by staining). This stuff was publicized back in the 1980s, when the Creationists were making waves. No real human prints at Paluxy.
Could you source this confident assertion please? I'd like to compare the facts and then apply Occam's razor. After all, fraud cannot simply be alleged but must be proven. Otherwise, it would not be unreasonable to surmise that those making such allegations are more desperate to further an agenda, and agenda that you obviously want to embrace. If history has taught us anything it's that those who dismiss anti-establishment revelations such as this with waves of their sickly, vaccine tainted paws should be viewed with skepticism. Surgeons who refused to accept the fact that microscopic bacteria on their hands were infecting and killing their patients were as certain of their positions as you seem to be. And they were wrong. If you have proof it will stand on its own merits. But, factoids such as "The Smithsonian says it's a fake" no longer constitute the last word. Their motto seems to be, "The scientific method is not a suicide pact."
Could you source this confident assertion please? There was a controversial made for TV documentary called "The Mysterious Origins of Man" (Narrated by Charlton Heston) which aired during the late 80's to early 90's. In the film they actually visited excavations of the site and photographed the footprints including those that had been more recently excavated and showing that the prints extended up under the rock formation surrounding the river bed where no human in modern time could have reached. The Smithsonian is not a reliable source as they have been caught retouching and "disappearing" unusual finds that contradict the "official story". The Smithsonian is funded by, and was begun by, the Robber Baron's to further their own ends and their preferred story for public consumption. The most intriguing, for me, was the find in the Grand Canyon around the turn of the last century. An explorer found a cave system which supposedly had Egyptian artifacts in great quantity. The Smithsonian mounted an expedition, which was reported on by the local newspaper - The Arizona Gazette if I recall correctly - which chronicled their taking away several boxcar loads of artifacts from the site. They have never been seen again and if you ask the Smithsonian about them today they will deny that it ever happened.
Yep, read that too. Appears to be a true story, but of course there's no publically available PROOF of such, except for the newspaper article. This "human print" under fossil thing appears to be some wishful thinking though, the print doesn't even seem like a real footprint, never mind a human footprint. It could have been CARVED that long ago though. However, I don't see a human footprint there, just a crude attempt to draw something that has five toes or fingers.
