The Tale of Human Evolution

The subject most often brought up by advocates of the theory of
evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim holds
that man evolved from so-called ape-like creatures. During this alleged
evolutionary process, which is supposed to have started 4-5 million years
ago, some "transitional forms" between present-day man and his imagi-

nary ancestors are supposed to have existed. According to this com-
pletely imaginary 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 vari-
ous 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 ordinary ape species that
became extinct and bore no re-
semblance to humans. 153

Evolutionists generally inter-
pret fossils in the light of
their ideological expecta-
tions, for which reason the
conclusions they arrive at are
for the most part unreliable.
