And now, here's our Creation Moments host, Ian Taylor.

Ian T. Taylor: Creationists are often the object of scorn because they take the Bible's account of history literally. If the Bible's history is accurate, man was on Earth at the same time as many animals that are extinct today.

Creationist arguments are often dismissed without answer by skeptics. They do this only because creationists believe that the entire creation is only about 6,000 years old. At the same time, we are gaining a more complete picture of the early Earth's history. As a result, evolutionists are being forced to accept important parts of what creationists have always been saying.

Excavations in Cyprus have shown that man has a long history of settlement there. Excavations have also revealed that Cyprus was once home to an extinct dwarf elephant and the pygmy hippopotamus. Evolutionary scientists said dwarf elephants and pygmy hippopotami were there a million and a half years before man.

Evolutionists claim that they died out before man ever arrived on the scene. Creationists, of course, rejected this claim. Over the past three summers, bones of pygmy hippos have been found in the same layers as chipped bone artifacts, chisels, scrapers, beads, and hearths.

We may not ever know for sure whether the settlers on Cyprus ever really ate pygmy hippo steaks. However, evolutionists now have to stop laughing at creationists long enough to admit that at least this part of our young Earth position is scientific fact.
