THERE NEVER WAS A STONE AGE









                      In the period denigrated by evolutionists as the "Stone Age," people worshipped, listened to the
                      message preached by the messengers sent to them, constructed buildings, cooked food in their
                      kitchens, chatted with their families, visited their neighbors, had tailors sew clothes for them, were
                      treated by doctors, took an interest in music, painted, made statues—and, in short, lived perfectly
                      normal lives. As archaeological findings show, there have been changes in technology and accumu-
                      lated knowledge over the course of history. But humans have always lived as human beings.

                                                                          but also that they possessed the necessary technology to

                                                                                          people of that age had only recently adopted a

                                                                                          When the findings are examined as a whole,
