               Today, there are 700 million unearthed fossils. A All these fossils re-
             veal that living beings emerged fully developed and in a perfect state
             on the Earth. It is as if the fossils are saying “We did not evolve
             through evolutionary processes.” That means, contrary to Darwin’s
             supposition, “the origin of species” cannot be explained by evolu-
             tion, but is explained by 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 man evolved from so-called ape-like creatures. During this
             alleged evolutionary process, which is supposed to have started four
             to five million years ago, some “transitional forms” between man
             and his imaginary ancestors 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 “Southern ape”. These living beings
             are actually nothing but an 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 belonged to an ordinary ape species that became extinct and
             bore no resemblance to humans (Solly Zuckerman, Beyond the Ivory
             Tower, Toplinger Publications, New York, 1970, 75-14; Charles E.

             Oxnard, “The Place of Australopithecines in Human Evolution:
             Grounds for Doubt”, Nature, vol. 258, 389).
