                                 The Evolution Misconception

                  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.  55
                  Evolutionists classify the next stage of human evolution
              as "homo," that is "man." According to the evolutionist claim,
