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 ancestors are supposed to have existed.
According to this completely imaginary scenario, four basic "cate-
gories" 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 speci-
mens 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 be-
came extinct and bore no resemblance to humans. 80
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 evolu-
tionary relation between these different classes. Ernst Mayr, one of
the twentieth century's most important evolutionists, contends in
his book One Long Argument that "particularly historical [puzzles]
