Demolished Evolutionist Myths
While maintaining that the olfactory mechanism developed gradual-
ly, evolutionists also claim that during the so-called human evolutionary
process, the importance of smell declined in comparison with that of oth-
er senses. This claim is another distortion resorted to by evolutionists in
order to suggest that there was a gradual development among the five
senses. According to this claim, a living thing evolving over the
course of time possesses senses that are increasingly ad-
vanced. However, they are unable to present any scientific
evidence for this claim, and instead seek to adorn it with
imaginary scenarios and scientific terminology.
First of all, the materials most frequently em-
ployed in purely conjectural evolutionist scenarios
on the subject of so-called human evolution, clearly,
are reconstructions—models, drawings and paint-
ings based on the skulls of now-extinct apes that
lived in the past. Evolutionists endow these skulls
with various facial features, seeking to give the
impression that “ape-men” once lived. They
may impose a human face on an ape’s skull
but leave a few simian details. The secret of
making an ape resembling a human being
is to give the desired shape to the soft tis-
sues superimposed on the skull. That’s
because your facial bones have little de-
termining effect on the soft tissues
that make up the mouth, nose and
eyelids. Using such a method, there-
fore, an ape’s face can easily be made
