I love to zing those who preach Darwinism. Their outraged reactions are so

predictable.

 

The first resort of people shorn of facts is to commit the fallacy of

argumentum ad hominem -- attack the person rather than address the argument.

Unfortunately for the Darwinism gang, attacking me does no good. I'm not the

one who did the research and formulated the theory of intelligent design.

 

One of these folks wondered sarcastically when I would use my skill in

computing probabilities to prove that the Earth was flat. Off the point. I

have no skill in computing probabilities. It's hard enough for me to remember

the odds on the various hands in poker.

 

But the man I quoted as saying that spontaneous generation of a living cell

is as improbable as a tornado building a Boeing 747 was Sir Fred Hoyle, a

renowned astronomer, mathematician and astrophysicist. I don't think that Sir

Fred's math skills are in doubt by anyone smart enough to know the

multiplication tables.

 

So, for the fun of it, here are a few more quotes showing that Darwin's

theory of evolution is in tatters:

 

"Through the use and abuse of hidden postulates, of bold, often ill-founded

extrapolations, a pseudoscience has been created. It is taking root in the

very heart of biology and is leading astray many biochemists and biologists

who sincerely believe that the accuracy of fundamental concepts has been

demonstrated which is not the case." Pierre Grasse, page 6, "The Evolution of

Living Organisms."

 

T. Kemp, curator of the University Museum at Oxford, said, "Paleontology is

now looking at what it actually finds, not what it is told that it is supposed

to find. As is now well known, most fossil species appear instantaneously in

the record, persist for some millions of years virtually unchanged, only to

disappear abruptly . . . . Instead of finding the gradual unfolding of life,

what geologists of Darwin's time and geologists of the present day actually

find is a highly uneven or jerky record; that is, species appear in the

sequence very suddenly, show little or no change during their existence in the

record, then abruptly go out of the record."

 

"Ultimately the Darwinian theory of evolution is no more nor less than the

great cosmological myth of the 20th century. Like the Genesis-based cosmology

which it replaced, and like the creation myths of ancient man, it satisfies

the same deep psychological need for an all-embracing explanation for the

origin of the world . . . ." That's Michael Denton, a biologist and physician,

in his book, "Evolution: A Theory in Crisis."

 

David Raup, a paleontologist, stated in an article, "A large number of

well-trained scientists outside of evolutionary biology and paleontology have

unfortunately gotten the idea that the fossil record is far more Darwinian

than it is. This probably comes from the oversimplification inevitable in

secondary sources: low-level textbooks, semi-popular articles and so on. Also

there is probably some wishful thinking involved. In the years after Darwin,

his advocates hoped to find predictable progressions. In general, these have

not been found -- yet the optimism has died hard and some pure fantasy has

crept into textbooks."

 

Now, not one of the scientists quoted above, is a creationist or advocate of

the Genesis theory or, so far as I know, even religious. But evolution is a

myth. This myth is pushed off on the public in popular articles and textbooks

as if it were scientific fact.

 

That's why the real s are the Darwinians
