ROMANTICISM: A WEAPON OF SATAN




              Harvard University, Stephen Jay Gould, explains this deadlock of the
              theory of evolution although he is an evolutionist himself:
                     What has become of our ladder if there are three coexisting
      132
                     lineages of hominids (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. 33
                   Put briefly, the scenario of human evolution, which is sought to be
              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 ground.
                   Lord Solly Zuckerman, one of the most famous and respected
              scientists in the U.K., who carried out research on this subject for
              years, and particularly 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." He
              formed a spectrum of sciences ranging from those he considered
              scientific to those he considered unscientific.  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 and then the social sciences. At the far end
              of the spectrum, which is the part considered to be most "unscientific,"
              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 interpretation 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. 34
