Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is "upheld"
with the help of various drawings of some "half ape, half human" crea-
tures appearing in the media and course books, that is, frankly, by

means of propaganda, is nothing but a tale with no scientific founda-
tion.
Lord Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and respected sci-
entists in the U.K., who carried out research on this subject for years
and studied Australopithecus fossils for 15 years, finally concluded, de-
spite being an evolutionist 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, de-
pending on concrete data—fields of science are chemistry and physics.
After them come the biological sciences and then the social sciences. At
the far end of the spectrum, which is the part considered to be most "un-
scientific," are "extra-sensory perception"—concepts such as telepathy

and sixth sense—and finally "human evolution." 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. 109
The tale of human evolution boils down to nothing but the preju-
diced interpretations of some fossils unearthed by certain people, who
blindly adhere to their theory.
