When someone wants to describe another’s thinking as silly or superficial, they say: "Like a caveman."

This is an expression with no real meaning, yet some people use it without understanding its implications.

It implies that ancient humans were mentally, emotionally, and morally deficient, and that these traits improved over time. This is a delusion propagated by the followers of the false theory of evolution. Yet many who use the term "caveman" do not even believe in evolution.

Let us remember that the first human was Adam, peace be upon him—a prophet with complete intellectual, emotional, and moral capabilities.

As time progressed after Adam, people’s thinking and morality rose or fell according to their faith or disbelief.

Human, intellectual, and moral progress or decline has nothing to do with the passage of time or modernity. It has nothing to do with humanity’s ability to reach the moon or descend into the earth’s layers, inventions, or discoveries—unless we say that a person’s faith drives them to develop the earth and benefit people.

We are now in the 21st century, in an era of tremendous technological explosion. Yet the majority of people’s ideas are corrupted, their perceptions distorted, their logic warped, and their morals at their lowest ebb. If those whom people call "cavemen" saw them, they would say: "Praise be to Allah, Who has saved us from what He has afflicted many of His creation with!"
