In this book, a totally new picture of five million years of human evolutionary history is presented.

Male and female hominids lived separately in different areas for most of the last five million years. They met together once a year and stayed together for a brief period. What they did for and during this annual mating season is the key to the proper and correct understanding of human evolution.

Five million years ago, the last common ancestors of the African great apes and humans lived in an extensive rain forest encompassing a river and a lake. There was a system of mountains, a lake and a river, all of which were linked together. Ever since then, mountains, rivers and lakes were intimately involved with humankind.

When the climate turned arid, the riverside forest broke into fragments of small forests. In desperate need of food, the last common ancestors were forced to visit the trees which dotted the river shore. They developed a unique mode of terrestrial locomotion to move between the main forest and the scattered patches of forest.

One day, during drought, a small group of apes ventured to a faraway tract of forest beside the river. On the road, they were caught in heavy rain and in the resulting frenzy, they lost their way back home. During their wanderings, they evolved into gorillas. Almost at the same time, another small group of apes met the same fate, and evolved into chimpanzees.

As the climate grew increasingly arid, the year divided itself into dry and wet seasons. During the dry season, males were forced to remain in the nearby mountain ranges because there weren't enough food in the home forest to support both males and females. As a result, males and females parted ways during the annual dry season. These were the ancestral hominids, who evolved into australopithecines.

Two and a half million years ago, as the climate became incresingly arid, the forest surrounding the lake began to break up and disappear. Finally, the female hominids, the inhabitants of the forest at the margin of the lake, were forced down to the ground. They became fully terrestrial, but they did not know where to find food and water. Consequently, females began to follow herds of Hipparion horses. Later, they switched to one-toed horses. Following these migrating horses, some hominids ended up in East Asia from Africa about 2 million years ago. In the same fashion, some hominids later wound up in Europe.

In the meantime, male hominids developed and acquired unique behavior. As rain began to fall, they went downstream to their courting ground. There, they beat the ground with sticks to attract and seduce mates. They beat pebbles, sand, the bones of dead animals or anything else on the ground, leaving behind piles of fractured, dented, and broken bones. These stone debris are erroneously called Oldowan tools by archaeologists and anthropologists.

Rain was so important to our remote ancestors because the rain was a harbinger of the brief annual mating season. They prayed for the coming of rain as the climate became arid. They prayed earnestly by beating the ground with sticks in their place of courtship. In due course, hominids became prayers.

Later as rain began to fall irregularly, the rain lost its foremost importance. Instead, the horse ascended in importance. Now, males prayed for the coming of the horse, accompanied by their mates.

About 32,000 years ago, Upper Palaeolithic Europeans began to pray for the coming of the horse by carving, engraving and painting horses on the cave walls. Painting was simply another version of prayer. The same was true for language. Human language was developed out of verbal prayer.

In this book, the common thread running through the entire history of human evolution is crisply and clearly explicated. The origins of construction, music, sculpture, handicrafts, painting and languages are all clarified as variations of the same theme. That theme was prayer.

This book deals with the interaction between science and religion. Unlike most other books, it starts from the assumption that both science and religion (Christianity) are valid and examines what each has to say to the other.

It sees the key linkage between the two is through a proper understanding of the nature of time. The book explains why there is no such thing as absolute time: how time came into being at the moment of creation/the Big Bang. It explains how God is outside of time and is not carried along by it.

As a result, it shows there is no conflict between the notions of predestination and free will. It gives a scientific explanation for the nature of prophecy. It gives a different understanding of the nature of eternity, and it discusses the likely nature of heaven and hell.

The book is written in simple language that is easy to understand. It should be of interest to anyone who has given some thought to both science and religion.

At last, a book that explains with great clarity both the scientific and Christian views of life - with none of the typical sales pitches. Find out what is new in biology and true in religion. Newly discovered fossils supply the "missing links" in the transition from water to land and back again. The Theory of Evolution is absolutely pivotal in explaining the history of life on Earth and your place in it. See how DNA encodes the development of earth's splendid plants and animals, including ourselves. Important genes distinguish humans from our closest living relatives - the Chimpanzees. Biological research is even altering our view about morals and the soul. In addition to science, you will find honest, even-handed explanations of religious history and practice, especially of Christianity. Early on, church officials chose their preferred narratives and bound them into a New Testament, after omitting passages they judged less persuasive. Nearly 30 other Gospels were suppressed as outright heresies. Provocatively, some elevated Mary Magdalene above Peter, and even supported Judas. Intent on self-perpetuation, today’s institutional religions continue their practice of using our afterlife as grounds for trumping our present life. Although the courts ruled Intelligent Design is a religious proposition, its proponents are still attempting to trot the Trojan horse of Creationism into science classrooms. Bye Bye Satan's central conclusion is that living by evidence is the only honest path—all else is risky self-deception. Find out why facts matter, as you discover meaning and purpose in your own life.

This book is about evolution as opposed to what it really says and what it really means. There is no proof, facts, or evidence to support evolution and for the most part the scientists that support this ideology have no real foundation from on which to stand. This book instructs and gives proof, facts, and evidence that shows evolution is nothing more than someone's belief. In the face of reality one chooses the perception of reality, this is fine within their vernacular. However, in the real world one needs tangible PFE in order to excavate one's ideas other wise they are only engaging in religious enthusiasm, even though, that's fine one can believe in what one wants to however, reality is unlike the perception of reality this book chooses not the latter.

Boundaries of Evolution describes the unlikelihood of evolutionary theory to explain how it is supposed to scale three major biological cliffs. The first cliff is the need for a logical explanation of how random chemical reactions could produce the first living cell from the primordial soup. The second is the problem of explaining how the first single-celled eukaryote evolved from a prokaryote. Mathematical improbabilities of evolutionary theory to scale the first two cliffs, in the time available, are demonstrated. The third insurmountable cliff is the necessity for a reasonable explanation of how millions of different kinds of multi-celled eukaryotes could have quickly evolved from single-celled eukaryotes.

Random mutations occurring in DNA, accepted or rejected by natural selection, are hailed as the source of advancement for the increase in biotic complexity. The most common time for mutations to occur in the DNA is during replication. Therefore, evolutionary advancement should occur faster in biota with the most frequent replication cycles. If both evolutionary theory and the fossil record are correct, prokaryotes, which replicate in as little as 20 minutes took 2 billion years to evolve the first single-celled eukaryote. Single-celled eukaryotes, generally having shorter reproductive times than multi-celled eukaryotes, took another billion years to evolve the first multi-celled eukaryote. Then during Cambrian times, the multi-celled eukaryotes with the longest reproductive cycles literally exploded in diversity in a comparatively short time. How could this be? Other inadequacies of Darwin's theory are presented for everyone to see.

Are humans still evolving? Not noticeably in the physical sense, but culturally, we certainly are. To that effect, are we becoming better, or worse? After reading Dr. Eugene Watkins Minard's book, “One Moment in Eternity - Human Evolution,- readers will surely have something to think about. An abundance of information awaits within these pages. Such research and thought development that went into this work is astounding, all to wrap it up in a neat package for the world to devour. Beginning at the very beginning, for us, with the origin of the known universe, and finishing with thoughts on the survival of civilization, as we know it, Minard leaves no stone unturned in his search for the truth. From what religious organizations have done to influence the beliefs of the people of the world, if not the world itself, to what motivates our highest political leaders. From the very beginnings of life to the evolutional process of Homo Sapiens. From Holy Wars to secret societies, Minard has thoughts and documented evidence to back up his ideas, all lined up for readers.

Various hypotheses have attempted to account for the formation of planets, the evolution of life, the extinction of the dinosaurs, the inception of ice ages, and various other ancient events. Unfortunately, the contradictions inherent in the sheer number of these theories hurls them all into a gladiatorial arena from which none of them has so far escaped unscathed. What the present work proposes is a single unifying theme that resolves all the above together with a few related mysteries. At bottom is the growing realization that Earth was adopted by the Sun from an entirely different system.
