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 an-
cestors are supposed to have existed. According to this completely imag-
inary 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 "South African ape." These living beings
are actually nothing but an old 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 or-
dinary ape species that became extinct
and bore no resemblance to humans. 109
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 evolu-
tion scheme by arranging different
Evolutionists generally inter-
pret fossils in the light of their
ideological expectations, for
which reason the conclusions
they arrive at are for the most
part unreliable.
