habilis, and Homo erectus lived at different parts of the world at the
same time. 49
Moreover, a certain segment of humans classified as Homo
erectus have lived up until very modern times. Homo sapiens
neandarthalensis and Homo sapiens sapiens (present-day man)
co-existed in the same region. 50
This situation apparently indicates the invalidity of the claim
that they are ancestors of one another. The late Stephen Jay Gould
explained 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
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. 51
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
scientists 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"
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
