                 - Near Lake Turkana, Kenya, a fossil of a child with an upright skele-
            tal structure has been found which is no different from that of modern
            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.
