from pre-existing species by some process of modification. If they did ap-
pear in a fully developed state, they must indeed have been created by
some omnipotent intelligence. 13
Fossils show that living beings emerged fully developed and in a per-
fect state on the earth. That means that "the origin of species" is, contrary
to Darwin's supposition, not evolution but creation.
The Tale of Human Evolution
The subject most often brought up by the advocates of the theory of
evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim
holds that the modern men of today evolved from some kind of ape-
like creatures. During this alleged evolutionary process, which is sup-
posed to have started 4-5 million years ago, it is claimed that there
existed some "transitional forms" between modern man and his an-
cestors. According to this completely imaginary scenario, four basic
"categories" are listed:
1. Australopithecus
2. Homo habilis
3. Homo erectus
4. Homo sapiens
Evolutionists call the so-called first ape-like ancestors of men
"Australopithecus" which means "South African ape." These living be-
ings are actually nothing but an old ape species that has become ex-
tinct. 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, has shown that
these belonged to an ordinary ape species that became extinct and
bore no resemblance to humans. 14
Evolutionists classify the next stage of human evolution as "homo,"
that is "man." According to the evolutionist claim, the living beings in
the Homo series are more developed than Australopithecus.
Evolutionists devise a fanciful evolution scheme by arranging differ-
