The Tale of Man's Evolution
Just
like evolutionists' other claims on the origin
of life forms, their claim about the origin of
man has likewise no scientific basis. Discoveries
show that "the evolution of man" is
simply a tale.
Darwin put forward his claim
that human beings and monkeys descended from a
common ancestor in his book The Descent of Man
published in 1871. From that time onwards, the
followers of Darwin have tried to bolster this
claim. But despite all the research that has been
carried out, the claim of "human evolution"
has not been backed up by any concrete scientific
discovery, particularly in the fossil field.
The man in the street is for
the most part unaware of this fact, and thinks
that the claim of human evolution is supported
by a great deal of firm evidence. The reason for
this incorrect opinion is that the subject is
frequently discussed in the media and presented
as a proven fact. But real experts on the subject
are aware that the claim of "human evolution"
has no scientific foundation. David Pilbeam, one
of Harvard University's palaeontologists, says
the following:

THE DIVERSITY OF APES
Throughout history,
more than 6,000 ape species have lived
and most of them have been lost to extinction.
The fossils of these extinct ape species
constitute a rich resource for evolutionists.
Evolutionists wrote the scenario of human
evolution by arranging some of the skulls
that suited their purpose in an order
from the smallest to the biggest and scattering
the skulls of some extinct human races
among them.

If you brought in a smart scientist
from another discipline and showed him the meagre
evidence we've got he'd surely say, 'forget it:
there isn't enough to go on.'45
THE
FOSSIL RECORD DISPROVES EVOLUTION
The scenario of "human evolution" has
no basis in the fossil record just as evolutionists'
other scenarios about living species. Contrary
to the propaganda spread by the media, there
is no fossil evidence demonstrating that
men and apes come from a common ancestor.

And William Fix, the author
of an important book on the subject of palaeoanthropology,
makes this comment:
There are numerous scientists
and popularizers today who have the temerity to
tell us that there is 'no doubt' how man originated.
If only they had the evidence.46
Ernst
Mayr, one of the founders of neo-Darwinism,
admits that the scenario of "man's evolution"
has found no evidence in the fossil record.

This claim of evolution, which
"lacks any evidence," starts the human
family tree with a species of monkey called Australopithecus.
According to the claim, Australopithecus began
to walk upright over time, his brain grew, and
passed through a series of stages to come to man's
present state (Homo sapiens.) But the fossil record
does not back up this scenario. Despite the claim
of all kinds of intermediate forms, there is an
impassable barrier between the fossil remains
respectively of man and monkeys. Furthermore,
it has been revealed that the species which are
portrayed as each others' ancestors are actually
contemporary species that lived in the same period.
Ernst Mayr, one of the most important proponents
of the theory of evolution in the 20th century,
accepts this truth: "The chain reaching as
far as Homo sapiens is actually lost."47
