                 Fossils show that living beings emerged fully developed and in a
            perfect state on the Earth. That means that "the origin of species," con-
            trary to Darwin's supposition, is not evolution, but creation.


                 The Tale of Human Evolution


                 The subject most often brought up by advocates of the theory of
            evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim holds
            that modern man evolved from ape-like creatures. During this alleged
            evolutionary process, which is supposed to have started 4-5 million
            years ago, some "transitional forms" between modern man and his an-
            cestors are supposed to have existed. According to this completely
            imaginary scenario, four basic "categories" are listed:
                 1. Australopithecus
                 2. Homo habilis

                 3. Homo erectus
                 4. Homo sapiens
                 Evolutionists call man's so-called first ape-like ancestors
            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 specimens by two
            world famous anatomists from England and the USA, namely, Lord
            Solly Zuckerman and Prof. Charles Oxnard, shows that these apes be-
            longed to an ordinary ape species that became extinct and bore no re-
            semblance to humans. 149
                 Evolutionists classify the next stage of human evolution as "homo,"
            that is "man." According to their claim, the living beings in the Homo
            series are more developed than Australopithecus. Evolutionists devise a
            fanciful evolution scheme by arranging different fossils of these crea-



                                                                            211
