The Collapse of the Family Tree
The scenario of "man's family tree" is refuted by fossil
evidence. It is understood today that species which are
presented as ancestors of one another are actually
different races that lived at the same period.
he scenario of "human evolution" is a totally fiction. In order for
such a family tree to exist, a gradual evolution from ape to man
T should have taken place and the fossil record of this process
should have been found. However, there is a huge gap between apes and
humans. Skeletal structures, cranial capacities, and other such criteria as
walking upright or bent sharply forward are what distinguish humans from apes.
Another significant finding proving that there can be no family tree among these
The so-called
different species is that the species that are presented as ancestors of each other in fact
"evolutionary
tree" made by lived concurrently. If, as the evolutionists claim, australopithecines converted to Homo
evolutionist habilis and if they, in turn, converted to Homo erectus, the eras they lived in should

necessarily have followed each other. However, there is no such chronological order.
Haeckel at the
close of the 19th The evolutionist paleontologist Alan Walker confirms this fact by stating that "there is
century. evidence from East Africa for late-surviving small Australopithecus individuals that were
contemporaneous first with H. Habilis, then with H. erectus." 56 Louis Leakey has found
fossils of Australopithecus, Homo habilis and Homo erectus almost next to each other in
Olduvai Gorge region, Bed II layer. 57
THE FAMILY TREE EXISTS
ONLY IN DRAWINGS
The schemes of "the family
tree of man", products of the
wide imaginative power of
evolutionists, are disproved
by the fossil record.
