190 THE PERFECT DESIGN IN THE UNIVERSE IS NOT BY CHANCE

erectus > Homo sapiens, evolutionists imply that each of these species is

one another's ancestor. However, recent findings of paleoanthropologists
have revealed that Australopithecus, Homo habilis, and Homo erectus lived

at different parts of the world at the same time. 44
Moreover, a certain segment of humans classified as Homo erectus
have lived up until very modern times. Homo sapiens neandarthalensis and
Homo sapiens sapiens (modern man) co-existed in the same region. 45

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 of ho-

minids (A. africanus, the robust australopithecines, and H. habilis), none
clearly derived from another? Moreover, none of the three display any evo-
lutionary trends during their tenure on earth. 46

Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is "upheld" with
the help of various drawings of some "half ape, half human" creatures ap-

pearing in the media and course books, that is, frankly, by means of pro-
paganda, is nothing but a tale with no scientific foundation.
Lord Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and respected scien-

tists in the U.K., who carried out research on this subject for years and
studied Australopithecus fossils for 15 years, finally concluded, despite be-
ing 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" ranging
from those he considered scientific to those he considered unscientific.

According to Zuckerman's spectrum, the most "scientific"—that is, de-
