There is no difference whatsoever between this 195-million-year-
old fossil shrimp and present-day shrimps.

A 50-million-year-old fossil tortoise and a present-day tortoise
whose form has remained unchanged for millions of years.

but a tale with no scientific foundation.
Lord Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and respected scientists in

the U.K., who carried out research on this subject for years and studied
Australopithecus fossils for 15 years, finally concluded, despite being an evo-
lutionist himself, that there is, in fact, no such family tree branching out from
ape-like creatures to man.
Zuckerman also made an interesting "spectrum of science" ranging from
those he considered scientific to those he considered unscientific. According to
Zuckerman's spectrum, the most "scientific"—that is, depending on concrete
data—fields of science are chemistry and physics. After them come the biolog-
ical sciences and then the social sciences. At the far end of the spectrum, which
is the part considered to be most "unscientific," are "extra-sensory percep-
tion"—concepts such as telepathy and sixth sense—and finally "human evolu-
tion." Zuckerman explains his reasoning:
We then move right off the register of objective truth into those fields of
presumed biological science, like extrasensory perception or the interpre-
tation of man's fossil history, where to the faithful [evolutionist] anything is
possible – and where the ardent believer [in evolution] is sometimes able
to believe several contradictory things at the same time. 18
The tale of human evolution boils down to nothing but the prejudiced inter-

pretations of some fossils unearthed by certain people, who blindly adhere to
their theory.
