THE TALE OF HUMAN EVOLUTION
The subject most often brought up by the advocates of the
theory of evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist
claim holds that the modern men of today evolved from some kind of
ape-like creatures. During this alleged evolutionary process, which is
supposed to have started 4-5 million years ago, it is claimed that there
existed some "transitional forms" between modern man and his an-
cestors. According to this completely imaginary scenario, four basic
"categories" are listed:
1. Australopithecus
2. Homo habilis
3. Homo erectus
4. Homo sapiens
Evolutionists call the so-called first ape-like ancestors of men
"Australopithecus" which means "South African ape." These liv-
ing beings are actually nothing but an old ape species that has be-
come extinct. Extensive research done on various Australopithecus
specimens by two world famous anatomists from England and the
USA, namely, Lord Solly Zuckerman and Prof. Charles Oxnard,
has shown that these belonged to an ordinary ape species that be-
came extinct and bore no resemblance to humans. 14
Evolutionists classify the next stage of human evolution as
"homo," that is "man." According to the evolutionist claim, the
living beings in the Homo series are more developed than
Australopithecus. Evolutionists devise a fanciful evolution scheme
by arranging different fossils of these creatures in a particular
order. This scheme is imaginary because it has never been proved
