Hi Hemi,

It is a myth the Catholic Church taught the earth was flat. It didn't. Manhy people, such as navigators or astronomers, relied on the earth being a sphere to make their calucations. The Catholics never believed the earth was flat.

It was hypothesized in a book in the 1700s, which wrote that the earth was flat. I'm sorry, I don't remember the name of it. But it was not from, and had nothing to do with, the Catholic Church.

With added speculation [their is no real evidence here as you claimed] concerning what is referred as pre-man,. . . .

There is a plethora of "real evidence" of numerous species that were "pre-man". Modern man, which is what we are, came on to the scene two million years ago. Prior to that, he had many ancestors that were not direct, but part of the tree.

I have yet to see any full skeletons. This one still makes me laugh more than Darwinism.

Here is a full skeleton of a three-year-old child from three million years ago.

Edit: The article I linked to wouldn't work. So I found a different one: Earliest Baby Girl Ever Discovered: Australopithecus Afarensis Child Sheds Light On Human Evolution

From the article:

The find comprises the whole skull with a natural brain sandstone impression in addition to previously completely unknown or very little known skeletal parts including the hyoid bone. Of the upper part of the skeleton, most of the spinal column, both shoulder blades, the ribs and both collar bones were recovered. Shoulder blades are almost absent in the fossil record of the earliest human ancestors except for fragmentary pieces from Lucy and another Australopithecus species (Australopithecus afarensis). Parts of the lower limb, including both knee caps and substantial parts of the thigh and shin bone from both legs were also recovered in addition to an almost complete foot.

The baby is from the same species as “Lucy," a four-foot-tall Ethiopian who walked upright at least 3 million years ago. The discovery of Lucy confirmed man’s ancestors walked erect long before they began to develop the big brains that set them apart from more primal primates.

So, there is your intact skeleton, as well as your spherical earth.
