An item published
in the New
Scientist on March
14th 1998 tells us
that the species
called by evolution-
ists Homo Erectus
were practising
seamanship 700
thousand years
ago.

- Near Lake Turkana, Kenya, a fossil of a child with an upright skele-

man. Concerning this fossil of a Homo Erectus specimen, paleoanthro-
pologists share a common view. American paleontologist Alan Walker
stated that he doubted that "the average pathologist could tell the differ-
ence between the fossil skeleton and that of a modern human." 3
- Neanderthals were a human race yet evolutionists present them as
"a primitive species." Nevertheless, all findings, including a sewing nee-
dle fossil dated 26 thousand years belonging to this race testify that
Neanderthals, ten thousands of years ago, had knowledge of clothing.
Never plead ignorance of the fact that these men, who lived hun-
dreds of thousands of years ago, practised seamanship and had knowl-
edge of clothing, and had a skeletal structure no different from modern
man, are presented as "primitive men" and that these efforts are vain.
About the origin of man, evolutionists arrange ape-like "transitional
forms" and call the resulting sequence "the imaginary family tree of man."
According to evolutionists, the origin of man was from an ape who later
acquired the traits of man.
This family tree of man is completely imaginary. To have a better un-
derstanding of the imaginary nature of this arrangement, it is sufficient to
examine evolutionists' alleged basis for this story.
Sometimes a skull, jaw-bone or single tooth has been the spark of in-
