Death of the Darwinist Dajjal System






                   According to Darwinists, although there were various species in
               the Australopithecus family, only Australopithecus afarensis (the species
               represented by “Lucy”, who was portrayed to the whole world as proof
               of so-called human evolution when she was discovered in 1974) is re-
               garded as a direct ancestor of man. However even Darwinists have ac-
               cepted that the creature in question cannot be put forward as the ances-
               tor of humans. The French Darwinist journal Science et Vie used the sub-
               ject as its cover story in its May 1999 issue. Under the caption “Adieu
               Lucy,” the magazine discussed Lucy, regarded as the most important

               fossil specimen from the species Australopithecus afarensis, and said that
               Australopithecus apes were not the forerunners of human beings, and
               that they should be removed from the family tree. 41
                   The world famous paleoanthropologist Richard Leakey also says
               that Lucy has no evolutionary validity: It is overwhelmingly likely that
               Lucy (Australophitecus afarensis) was no more than a variety of pygmy
               chimpanzee. The evidence for the alleged transformation from ape to
               man is extremely unconvincing. 42
                   In addition, as a result of his researches into Australopithecines the
               evolutionist Lord Zuckerman also concluded that they were an ordi-
               nary species of ape and very definitely did not walk upright. 43
                   Another evolutionist and anatomist well known for his research
               into the subject, Charles E. Oxnard, stated that the skeletal structure of
               Australopithecines resembles that of today’s orangutans. 44

                   In 1994, Fred Spoor and his team from Liverpool University in
               Britain carried out a comprehensive study in order to arrive at a defin-
               itive conclusion regarding the Australopithecus skeleton. An organ in
               the skeleton known as the “cochlea,” which determines the position of
               the body in relation to the ground, was investigated. Spoor’s conclu-
               sion was that Australopithecus did not walk in a bipedal manner similar
               to that of human beings. 45
                   Another study in 2000 by the scientists B.G. Richmond and D.S.
               Strait, published in  Nature  magazine, examined the forearms of
