Excerpt: Carl Edward Baugh (born 1936) is an American young earth creationist who, with others, claims to have discovered human alongside dinosaur footprints near the Paluxy River in Texas. His claims have been rejected by the scientific community and other creationists as pseudoscience. His educational credentials have been called into question. Born in Kenedy, Texas, Baugh graduated in 1955 from Abilene High School in Abilene, Texas. He currently appears on Trinity Broadcasting Network's show called "Creation in the 21st Century." Baugh is also president and alumnus of the Pacific International University, which many accuse of being a diploma mill. Original museum buildingIn 1984, Baugh started the Creation Evidence Museum in a double-wide trailer in Glen Rose, Texas, near Dinosaur Valley State Park, to promote creationism. All of the museum exhibits have been strongly criticized as incorrectly identified dinosaur prints, other fossils, or outright forgeries. In 2008, a descendant of a family that found many original Paluxy River dinosaur tracks in the 1930s claimed that her grandfather had faked many of them. Others, such as purported dinosaur claws, were identified by University of Texas at Austin paleontologist Wann Langston as crocodile teeth. In 1996, Baugh presented his "man-tracks" in the controversial program The Mysterious Origins of Man. Creationist Ken Ham, of Answers in Genesis, criticized the claims in a review titled "Hollywood's 'Moses' Undermines Genesis," regarding Baugh: "According to leading creationist researchers, this evidence is open to much debate and needs much more intensive research. One wonders how much of the information in the program can really be trusted!" He also has been given television exposure by the tele-evange.
