DEATH, RESURRECTION, HELL


            thropologists have revealed that Australopithecus, Homo habilis, and
            Homo erectus lived at different parts of the world at the same time. 16
               Moreover, a certain segment of humans classified as Homo erec-
            tus have lived up until very modern times. Homo sapiens nean-
            darthalensis and Homo sapiens sapiens (man) co-existed in the
            same region. 17
               This situation apparently indicates the invalidity of the claim that
            they are ancestors of one another. The late Stephen Jay Gould ex-
            plained this deadlock of the theory of evolution although he was
            himself one of the leading advocates of evolution in the twentieth
            century:

               What has become of our ladder if there are three coexisting lineages of ho-
               minids (A. africanus, the robust australopithecines, and H. habilis),
               none clearly derived from another? Moreover, none of the three display
               any evolutionary trends during their tenure on earth. 18
               Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is "upheld"
            with the help of various drawings of some "half ape, half human"
            creatures appearing in the media and course books, that is, frankly,
            by means of propaganda, is nothing but a tale with no scientific
            foundation.
               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,
            despite 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" rang-
            ing from those he considered scientific to those he considered unsci-
            entific.  According to Zuckerman's spectrum, the most
            "scientific"—that is, depending on concrete data—fields of science
            are chemistry and physics. After them come the biological sciences
