THE DECEPTION OF EVOLUTION

the same time. 15
M o re o v e r, a certain segment of humans classified as H o m o
-
erectus have lived up until very modern times. Homo sapiens nean
darthalensis and Homo sapiens sapiens(modern man) co-existed in
the same region. 16
This situation apparently indicates the invalidity of the cla-
im that they are ancestors of one another. A paleontologist from
H a r v a rd University, Stephen Jay Gould, explains this deadlock
of the theory of evolution, although he is an evolutionist himself:
What has become of our ladder if there are three coexisting lineages
of hominids (A. africanus, the robust australopithecines, and H.
habilis), none clearly derived from another? Moreover, none of the
t h ree display any evolutionary trends during their tenure on
earth. 17
Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is "up-
held" 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.
L o rd Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and re s p e c t e d
scientists in the U.K., who carried out re s e a rch on this subject for
years and studied A u s t r a l o p i t h e c u sossils for 15 years, finally conc-
f
luded, despite being an evolutionist himself, that there is, in fact,
no such family tree branching out from ape-like cre a t u res to man.
Zuckerman also made an interesting "spectrum of science"
ranging from those he considered scientific to those he conside-
red unscientific. A c c o rding to Zuckerman's spectrum, the most
