The Deception Of Evolution
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" be-
tween modern man and his ancestors are supposed to have ex-
isted. 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 be-
come 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 belonged to an ordinary ape
species that became extinct and bore no resemblance to humans. 13
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 dif-
ferent fossils of these creatures in a particular order. This scheme
is imaginary because it has never been proved that there is an
evolutionary relation between these different classes. Ernst Mayr,
one of the twentieth century's most important evolutionists, con-
tends in his book One Long Argument that "particularly historical
