        without any evolutionary ancestor is that it was created. This fact is ad-
        mitted also by the widely known evolutionist biologist Douglas
        Futuyma:
           Creation and evolution, between them, exhaust the possible explana-
           tions for the origin of living things. Organisms either appeared on the
           earth fully developed or they did not. If they did not, they must have
           developed from pre-existing species by some process of modification. If
           they did appear in a fully developed state, they must indeed have been
           created by some omnipotent intelligence. 13

           Fossils show that living beings emerged fully developed and in a
        perfect state on the Earth. That means that "the origin of species," con-
        trary to Darwin's supposition, is not evolution, but Creation.


           The Tale of Human Evolution

           The subject most often brought up by advocates of the theory of evo-
        lution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim holds that
        man evolved from so-called ape-like creatures. During this alleged evo-
        lutionary process, which is supposed to have started 4-5 million years
        ago, some "transitional forms" between present-day man and his imag-
        inary ancestors are supposed to have existed. According to this com-
        pletely imaginary scenario, four basic "categories" are listed:
           1. Australopithecus
           2. Homo habilis
           3. Homo erectus
           4. Homo sapiens
           Evolutionists call man's so-called first ape-like ancestors
        Australopithecus, which means "South African ape." These living be-
        ings are actually nothing but an old ape species that has become extinct.
        Extensive research done on various Australopithecus specimens by two
        world famous anatomists from England and the USA, namely, Lord
        Solly Zuckerman and Prof. Charles Oxnard, shows that these apes be-
