              "Australopithecus" which means "South African ape." These living
              beings are actually nothing but an old ape species that has become
              extinct. Extensive research done on various Australopithecus speci-
              mens by two world famous anatomists from England and the USA,
              namely, Lord Solly Zuckerman and Prof. Charles Oxnard, has
              shown that these belonged to an ordinary ape species that became
              extinct and bore no resemblance to humans. 58
                 Evolutionists classify the next stage of human evolution as
              "homo," that is "man." According to the evolutionist claim, the living
              beings in the Homo series are more developed than Australopithecus.
              Evolutionists devise a fanciful evolution scheme by arranging differ-
              ent fossils of these creatures in a particular order. This scheme is
              imaginary because it has never been proved that there is an evolu-
              tionary relation between these different classes. Ernst Mayr, one of
              the most important proponents of the theory of evolution in the 20th
              century, contends in his book One Long Argument that "particularly
              historical [puzzles] such as the origin of life or of Homo sapiens, are ex-
              tremely difficult and may even resist a final, satisfying explanation." 59
                 By outlining the link chain as "Australopithecus > Homo habilis >
              Homo erectus > Homo sapiens," evolutionists imply that each of these
              species is one another's ancestor. However, recent findings of pale-
              oanthropologists have revealed that Australopithecus, Homo habilis and
              Homo erectus lived at different parts of the world at the same time. 60
                 Moreover, a certain segment of humans classified as Homo erec-
              tus have lived up until very modern times. Homo sapiens nean-
              darthalensis and Homo sapiens sapiens (modern man) co-existed in
              the same region. 61
                 This situation apparently indicates the invalidity of the claim
              that they are ancestors of one another.  A paleontologist from
              Harvard 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
