Darwinists produced a creature identical to the present-day Bonobo chimpanzee and gave it the name "Ardi."
And then they said; “All right, it may be a chimpanzee, but it stands upright!” This is one rather primitive ex-

ample of the Darwinist deception we know so well.
Discovered in 1994, the fossil skeleton was in a fragmented form when first found. The pelvic bone in partic-
ular was in tiny pieces and was exceedingly brittle the moment paleontologists picked it up. Darwinists took
these minute pieces with no clear shape and reconstructed a pelvic bone just as they desired.
Darwinists carefully chose this fossil they produced only 15 years later. It was easy to speculate about a “frag-
mented” fossil, even though they had no transitional forms in their possession. The Darwinist William Jungers,
head of the anatomical sciences department at the Long Island, Stony Brook University Medical Center, says this

on the subject:
“It's very difficult not to make them look like something you have in your mind if there's any chance of play…
Ardi, requires a lot of guesswork.”
The inward-facing big toe on Ardi's feet and a foot bone absent from human beings are the most distinctive

proofs that the creature did not walk upright. After examining the fossil, Jungers said, " “there is
no way that they could belong to ‘an animal that wasn’t often walking on its hind legs’ unless the
data ‘were deliberately ignored or if we had made them up’.”
Tim White, a Darwinist from the University of California, who suggested that Ardi might rep-
resent the missing link in human evolution, also had to make the following admission in the face
of the facts that emerged regarding the fossil:

"There are no apparent features sufficiently unique to warrant the exclusion of Ar. ramidus
(Ardi) as being ancestral to Australopithecus.”
Darwinists’ claims regarding Ardi are in fact significant evidence of the despairing situation in
which they find themselves. Even if they fall into a hugely embarrassing situation, Darwinists have

to repeat these feeble claims for the sake of their perverse Darwinist ideology.

Although bacteria are tiny, they display biochemical, structural, and behavioral complexities that outstrip

scientific description. In keeping with the current microelectronics revolution, it would make more sense to
equate their size with sophistication rather than simplicity. Without bacteria, life on Earth could not exist in
its present form. 103

In this context, it is impossible to talk about “simplicity” in regard to life. Living organisms all
demonstrate the existence and superiority of an outstanding Creator and a Power that is above and in-
spires all living things. This Creator is Allah, Who gives life to all things, Who knows the condition of

everything which He has created, Who has created all things from nothing, the most Glorious. Every
unique creation of Allah comes to fruition when He merely commands, “Be!” For Allah, creating the
most magnificent creatures whenever and however He wants is undoubtedly very easy. He is the pos-
sessor of everything, and He knows and judges all things; He is omniscient and omnipresent. Allah in-

forms us in the Qur’an;
To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the Earth; it is He Who gives life and death; and He has

power over all things. He is the First and the Last, the Evident and the Immanent; and He has full knowledge
of all things. He it is Who created the heavens and the Earth in six days, and is moreover firmly established
on the Throne (of Authority). He knows what enters within the Earth, and what comes forth out of it, what
comes down from heaven, and what mounts up to it. And He is with you wheresoever ye may be. And Allah

sees all that ye do. To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the Earth; and all affairs are referred
back to Allah. (Qur’an, 57:2-5)
