2. Evolutionists treat the fossils of human beings from differ-
ent races as if they were actually half-ape, half-human creatures.
As we know, there are many different ethnic groups in the

world: Africans, Chinese, Native Americans, Turks, Europeans,
Arabs and many others. Obviously, people belonging to different
ethnic groups sometimes have different features. For example, the
Chinese have almond-shape eyes, and some Africans have very
dark skins and very curly hair. When you see a Native American
or an Eskimo, you immediately know that they belong to a differ-
ent ethnic group. In the past, there were many other ethnic groups
and some of their features were perhaps different from those of
people today. For example, the skulls of people belonging to the
Neanderthal race were bigger than the skulls of people living
today. Their muscles were also a lot stronger than ours.
Evolutionists, however, use the differences between this race
and ours as a way to deceive people. They say, for instance, when
they find a Neanderthal skull, "This is the skull of man's ancestors
who lived tens of thousands of years ago." Sometimes the fossil
skulls found are smaller than the average skull size of human be-
ings today. Pointing to such a skull fossil, evolutionists will say,
"The owner of this skull was just at the point of changing from an
ape into a human."
In reality, even today there are people belonging to different
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 por-
tray as proof of human beings having evolved from apes either be-
long to earlier species of apes or human races that are now extinct.
This means that half–human, half-ape creatures have never ex-
isted.
