Modern man is said to have evolved until about 100,000 years ago and then to have stopped evolving. Evolution since that time, it is claimed, has been "cultural and social evolution." Biological evolution is unknown among humans in historical times.

CreationWiki response:

The source's link is no longer valid. However, if this claim is used at all it is not a common one. Creationists recognize that changes have occurred in man but generally in a downward direction.
