average skull size of human beings today. Pointing to such

was just at the point of changing from an ape into a
human."
In reality, even today there are people belonging to dif-

ferent ethnic groups who have smaller than average skulls.
For example, the skull volume of Native Australians
(Aborigines) is quite small, but this does not mean that they
are half-ape, half-human. They are normal human beings,
just like you and everyone else.

Consequently, we can see that the fossils evolutionists
portray as proof of human beings having evolved from apes
either belong to earlier species of apes or human races that
are now extinct. This means that half–human, half-ape crea-
tures have never existed.

THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE

The biggest difference between apes and human beings
is that humans have souls and apes don't. Humans have

to others in rational sentences, make decisions, feel, develop
tastes, know about art, paint, compose songs, sing and are

order to resemble a human being, an ape would have to go
