 In 1944, as a ten year old boy, Newton Anderson dropped a lump of coal in his basement and found that it contained this bell inside. The bituminous coal that was mined near his house in Upshur County West Virginia is supposed to be about 300 million years old! What is a brass bell with an iron clapper doing in coal ascribed to the Carboniferous Period? According to Norm Sharbaugh�s book Ammunition(which includes several "coal anecdotes") the bell is an antediluvian artifact (made before the Genesis Flood). The Institute for Creation Research had the bell submitted to the lab at the University of Oklahoma. There a nuclear activation analysis revealed that the bell contains an unusual mix of metals, different from any known modern alloy production (including copper, zinc, tin, arsenic, iodine, and selenium). "lost world" is frozen in place at the South Pole. The geologist, Peter Barret, was one of the first to look for fossils in Antarctica. He discovered an amphibian jaw belonging to a creature that could only have survived in a warm, damp environment. Various paleontologists have followed his lead. Thirteen thousand feet up Mt. Kirkpatrick in Antarctica (400 miles from the Pole) pterosaurs, carnivorous theropods, and many other creatures have been found. Dr. Duane Gish asks a pertinent question How could animals like dinosaurs, flying reptiles, and turtles survive alongside ferns and conifers in areas with very low temperature and months of darkness? (Evolution: The Fossils Stills Say No!, 1995 p. 127)  Many creationists attribute this to a water vapor canopy that was created by God on the second day, the "waters above the firmament" (Genesis 1:7). This theory holds that a "vast blanket of invisible water vapor...productive of a marvelous greenhouse effect which maintained mild temperatures from pole to pole, thus preventing air-mass circulation and the resultant rainfall (Genesis 2:5). It would certainly have had the further effect of efficiently filtering harmful radiation from space, markedly reducing the rate of somatic mutations in living cells, and, as a consequence, drastically decreasing the rate of aging and death." (Morris, Henry, Scientific Creationism, 1984, p. 211) Some have postulated that this vapor layer could have dramatically increased the atmospheric pressure on the surface of the early earth, again contributing to a healthier environment. Later the canopy would have collapsed in the form of rain (the "windows of heaven" in Genesis 7:11), contributing to the Flood water, and resulting in the dramatic drop-off in longevity after the deluge. Some creationists emphasize other factors that may have caused the worldwide temperate conditions that existed before the Flood. They stress the evidence of far greater concentrations of carbon dioxide levels in the past and point out that the earth�s magnetic field was far stronger than today. This could have acted as the shield for cosmic radiation and produced the healthier environment. (Humphreys, Russel D., Starlight and Time, 1995, p. 63)John Baumgardner of Los Alamos has suggested that the atmosphere surrounding the original earth was far thicker than it is today and that the exploding of the fountains of the great deep during the initial stages of the Genesis Flood stripped some of this atmosphere away.   "Fran Barnes, a recognized authority on rock art of the American South-West, writes, �In the San Rafael Swell, there is a pictograph [picture symbol] that looks very much like a pterosaur, a Cretaceous flying reptile�..." (Swift, Dennis, "Messages on Stone," Creation Ex Nihilo, vol. 19, p. 20). This figure, about 7 feet long from wing-tip to wing-tip, is actually painted with a dark-red pigment. Indians of the Fremont culture are thought to have inhabited the "Swell" between 700 and 1250 A.D. Black Dragon Canyon is named for the pictograph which resembles a large winged reptile with a headcrest. On the left is shown a photo of one of the curious "dinosaur" petroglyphs near Middle Mesa at the Wupatki National Park. This particular petroglyph is called "Puff the Magic Dragon," and appears to be a depiction of a fire-breathing dinosaur. Though there is no certain way to date such petroglyphs, it is believed to be at least several hundred years old.  The Chinese have many stories of dragons. Some ornamental pictures of dragons are shaped remarkably like dinosaurs. Marco Polo reported in 1271 that on special occasions the royal chariot was pulled by dragons and in 1611 the emperor appointed the post of a Royal Dragon Feeder. Books even tell of Chinese families raising dragons to use their blood for medicines and highly prizing their eggs. (DeVisser, Marinus Willem, The Dragon in China & Japan, 1969.) To the right are pictures of fossilized Protoceratops dinosaur eggs (one is double-yoked) from China that are currently on display at Creation Evidence Museum. It is interesting that the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac are all animals--eleven of which are still alive today. But is the twelfth, the dragon merely a legend or is it based on a real animal-- the dinosaur? It doesn't seem logical that the ancient Chinese, when constructing their zodiac, would include one mythical animal with eleven real animals. "The interpretation of dinosaurs as dragons goes back more than two thousand years in Chinese culture. They were regarded as sacred, as a symbol of power..." (Zhiming, Doug, Dinosaurs From China, 1988, p. 9.) Shown here are dragons that were cast in red gold and embossed during the Tang Dynasty (618-906 AD). Notice the long neck and tail, the frills, and the lithe stance. Evolutionists have brought forward some bizarre theories for how such realistic depictions could have been made.
  Pterosaurs in Oregon By Phillip O’Donnell
Special Thanks to Ken Gerhard for Contributing Info
Oregon is a state of vast wilderness, forests, lakes, rivers, marshes, etc… Recently I have found several reports of pterosaurs in Oregon. Myself and two other witnesses saw a strange “bird” a few years ago that resembled a Pteranodon that sparked my interest in North American pterosaur sightings. More details about my encounter can read below.
In March of 2003 I saw a very large bird that had just landed in a fir tree about 250 yards away. I grabbed the binoculars and looked at it for about 15 seconds. I wasn't even thinking about Pterosaurs, so I didn't look for distinctive features. I did see that it had a horn on back of it's head that was sticking out at about a 45 degree angle. It had a long thick beak and a white chest with black spots. Soon after it flew to a nearby field and we ran outside. It soon flew out of the field and we could see was very long, pointy wings. One witness later told me, "I was looking through the binoculars when I saw the creature turn it's head, and I could see a large horn coming out of the back of it's head, almost like a second beak. The beak was large and thick." The next encounter with this “bird” occurred on April 30, 2004, at 3:40 in the afternoon. I saw the same birdjump from the field and flew behind some trees. It was very, very bright and almost seemed to “glow” in the sunlight. Another strange fact is that there were thin, red streaks across it's wings. I would estimate it’s wingspan to be eight to ten feet across. I am very much familiar with Great Blue Herons and large birds of prey, but I must say that this bird was different. In the 1970’s, there was a rash of pterosaur sightings in Multnomah County, Oregon. This is what one of the witness said, “We were walking up the street, when one of us noticed a large bird…It had…webbed feet, long tail, webbed wings. I would guess it’s beak (or mouth) was about two and a-half to three feet long. It didn’t appear to have feathers on it, looked kind of leathery. It appeared to be a pterodactyl, from what I had seen in books. It was definitely flying north towards Washington. The wingspan was about twenty feet or so. After a few years, we started hearing about more people who had seen a pterodactyl. One of them was a friend of my mom’s. Her friend’s mother…had found one in her back yard. She and he daughter just watched it for a couple of days until it flew away. Please note that pterosaurs have been reported in Washington also. Charles Knight of Spokane, Washington told me that in the early 1960’s he saw two pterosaurs (he said they were the type that had a horn on back of their head) flying in circles near their herd of cattle in the early morning hours. A similar occurrence happened in Texas also in the 1970’s. Another person in Brookings, Oregon said that in the morning he saw a bird with a nine foot wingspan and a long tail. It had no “under sided” flight feathers and it’s wings were long and narrow. In 1995, a couple in Siletz, Oregon reported seeing a very strange animal by a river. They said that the shape of the creature was like that of a human except that it had claws and a bullet-shaped head. In the darkness they couldn’t see the creature very well, so they did not see it’s wings. Any pterosaur researcher can point out several details that are very similar to Dimorphodon or Anurognathus. Someone recently came forward with a sighting in Marion County, east of Salem, OR (only hours from where my sighting occurred). He said that around 1994, he and his step-father saw a very large bird. He wrote, “and without recall of reason I glanced south and noticed a large, brown pteradon or pteradactyl (sp?) flying east roughly 150-200 yards away. I am very sure that the creature had no feathers. I have seen, many times, hawks and the like perched on fence posts while driving through the desert regions of southernCalifornia. Their flight was swift, the highest speed coming in pulses. The refraction of the sun of the black and brown feathers of these animals produced a sheen or luster that made the angular features of the wings more prevalent and easier to see. What I saw clearly had no feathers.” Is it possible that Oregon has been visited by a small pterosaur in the past? If so, what species of pterosaur? According to my research I concluded that the majority of pterosaur sightings have been of Pteranodons. Another point I need to address is that it appears that pterosaurs are North America are migratory creatures, not staying in one place for over several years at the very most. If this is true, then it would explain why pterosaurs haven’t been captured yet – because people just aren’t ready when one is seen (or two). What Are Dinosaurs?Dinosaurs are large, reptilian land animals that lived in great abundance over 4000 years ago (  Man and dinosaur lived together peacefully around 2000 BC. (Illustration by Peggy Miller) Pre-Noachian man tried to tame the dinosaur, wishing to use its might for evilness and arrogantly thinking himself as mighty as the Lord. This grieved the Lord, and He brought the Flood upon the earth [Gen. 6]. Species of dinosaurs were among the animals taken aboard the ark by Noah ( Dinosaurs have been a favorite propaganda tool for evolutionists since the 19th century, and continue to be used to promote the pseudoscientific religion of Evolutionism in the Secular media. Movies such as Jurassic Parkand Disney's Dinosaur are designed to indoctrinate the masses into the Evolutionistic world view. The appeal of dinosaurs to kids is of particular interest to Evolutionists since it allows them to gain easy and willing access the minds of our children ( For more on the propagandistic use of dinosaurs by Evolutionists, see:
Creation Science Evidences of DinosaursThis campaign has been very effective, as most people -- even most Christians -- aren't aware of the evidences that contradict the evolutionistic position. Evidence of man-dinosaur contemporaneity, although actively suppressed by the Evolutionistic hegemony, is in abundence and includes:

Mexico and South America
There is similar evidence, suggesting possible coexistence with pterosaurs, among the Indians of Mexico and South America, too. Jose Diaz-Bolio, a Mexican archaeologist, discovered an ancient Mayan relief sculpture in Veracruz, Mexico, of a bird with some features of thePteranodon. The November 1968 edition of Science Digest published an article on this 'evolutionary oddity', called 'Serpent-bird of the Mayans'. The serpent-bird, says Bolio, 'is not merely the product of Mayan flights of fancy, but a realistic representation of an animal that lived during the period of the ancient Mayans. Thunderbirds: Living Pterosaurs @ flyingdragons.livingdinos.com The figurines of Acambaro were discovered in the 1940s by a German archaeologist named Waldamar Julsrud. One day, while on the outskirts of Acambaro, Julsrud discovered a figurine protruding half out of the ground. He had one of his employees dig in the area and bring the artifacts back to his home. Not long after, over 33,000 figurines filled nearly every square inch of his mansion.

Aether Research In Greek, 'Aithen' means to burn or shine The word 'aethere' was used by Romans and Greeks to mean the upper air which they regarded as pure and connected to a Sun that was driven through this aethere across the sky during the day, hence the relation to shining and burning (thus luminiferous Aether is nothing more than a distributed physical medium permeating the entire universe, endowing it [space] with measurable physical qualities H. A. Lorentz formulated an aether based version of special relativity, known as Lorentz Ether Theory MATTER IS MADE OF WAVES " The material Universe is solely made out of Aether "  The Greek derived word Aether is defined in the Webster Universal Dictionary as a: "hypothetical medium, supposed to fill space, by means of vibrations in which light and other forms of radiation are transmitted". Up until the latter part of the last century the 'Ether' theory was an established scientific fact.
