beings are created. The only explanation of a living species emerging suddenly
and complete in every detail without any evolutionary ancestor can be that this

species was created. This fact is admitted also by the widely known
evolutionist biologist Douglas Futuyma:
Creation and evolution, between them, exhaust the possible explanations for the
origin of living things. Organisms either appeared on the earth fully developed or
they did not. If they did not, they must have developed from pre-existing species
by some process of modification. If they did appear in a fully developed state, they
must indeed have been created by some omnipotent intelligence. 35

Fossils show that living beings emerged fully developed and in a perfect
state on the earth. That means that "the origin of species" is, contrary to
Darwin's supposition, not evolution but creation.

The Tale of Human Evolution

The subject most often brought up by the advocates of the theory of

evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim holds that the
modern men of today evolved from some kind of ape-like creatures. During
this alleged evolutionary process, which is supposed to have started 4-5
million years ago, it is claimed that there existed some "transitional forms"
between modern man and his ancestors. According to this completely
imaginary scenario, four basic "categories" are listed:
1. Australopithecus
2. Homo habilis

3. Homo erectus
4. Homo sapiens
Evolutionists call the so-called first ape-like ancestors of men
"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, has shown that these belonged to an ordinary ape
species that became extinct and bore no resemblance to humans. 36
Evolutionists classify the next stage of human evolution as "homo," that is
"man." According to the evolutionist claim, the living beings in the Homo
