THE ALLIANCE OF THE GOOD

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
of hominids (A. africanus, the robust australopithecines, and H.
habilis), none clearly derived from another? Moreover, none of the
three display any evolutionary trends during their tenure on
earth. 33
Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is
sought to be upheld with the help of various drawings of
some "half ape, half human" creatures appearing in the
media and course books, that is, frankly, by means of
propaganda, is nothing but a tale with no scientific ground.
Lord Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and
respected scientists in the U.K., who carried out research on

this subject for years, and particularly studied
Australopithecus fossils for 15 years, finally concluded,
despite being an evolutionist himself, that there is, in fact, no
such family tree branching out from ape-like creatures to
man.
Zuckerman also made an interesting "spectrum of
science." He formed a spectrum of sciences ranging from
those he considered scientific to those he considered
unscientific. According to Zuckerman's spectrum, the most
"scientific"–that is, depending on concrete data–fields of
science are chemistry and physics. After them come the
biological sciences and then the social sciences. At the far end
of the spectrum, which is the part considered to be most
"unscientific," are "extra-sensory perception"–concepts such
as telepathy and sixth sense–and finally "human evolution."
