Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is "upheld" with
the help of various drawings of some "half ape, half human" creatures
appearing in the media and course books, that is, frankly, by means of
propaganda, is nothing but a tale with no scientific foundation.
Lord Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and respected scien-
tists in the U.K., who carried out research on this subject for years and
studied Australopithecus fossils for 15 years, finally concluded, despite
being an evolutionist himself, that there is, in fact, no such family tree
branching out from ape-like creatures to man.
Zuckerman also made an interesting "spectrum of science" ranging
from those he considered scientific to those he considered unscientific.
According to Zuckerman's spectrum, the most "scientific"-that is, depend-
ing on concrete data-fields of science are chemistry and physics. After them
come the biological sciences and then the social sciences. At the far end of
the spectrum, which is the part considered to be most "unscientific," are
"extra-sensory perception"-concepts such as telepathy and sixth sense-and
finally "human evolution." Zuckerman explains his reasoning:
We then move right off the register of objective truth into those
fields of presumed biological science, like extrasensory perception
or the interpretation of man's fossil history, where to the faithful
[evolutionist] anything is possible – and where the ardent believer
[in evolution] is sometimes able to believe several contradictory
things at the same time. 99
The tale of human evolution boils down to nothing but the preju-
diced interpretations of some fossils unearthed by certain people, who
blindly adhere to their theory.
Technology in the Eye and the Ear
Another subject that remains unanswered by evolutionary theory is
the excellent quality of perception in the eye and the ear.
