Posterity will some day laugh at the foolishness of modern
materialistic philosophy. The more I study nature, the more
I am amazed at the Creator. - Louis Pasteur
Said George Gallup, world-famed statistician, "I could
prove God statistically! Take the human body alone. The
chance that all the functions of the individual would just
happen is a statistical monstrosity.
That the universe was formed by a fortuitous concourse
of atoms, I will no more believe than that the accidental
jumbling of the alphabet would fall into most ingenious
treatise of philosophy.
- Jonathan Swift
To create takes infinite power. All the world cannot make
a fly.
The probability of life originating by accident is comparably
to the probability of the unabridged dictionary resulting
from an explosion in the print shop.
Darwin guessed that two hundred million years ago one
or a few germs appeared on the planet and then, according
to Darwin, they immediately went to work reproducing. Not
quite according to kind, but with just enough variation
to give us finally between two and three million of species.
Darwin thought we had two or three million. I am conservative
that I prefer the lowest estimate - a million species in
the animal kingdom and vegetable world - but according to
Darwin's guess, everything we now see came from one or a
few germs of life. All evolutionists believe this whether
they call themselves Christians, theist or atheist. Our
answer is that if it were true that all species came by
slow development from one or a few germs, every square foot
of the earth's surface would teem with evidences of change.
If everything changed, we ought to find evidence of it somewhere,
but because it's not true, they have not found a single
thing, living or dead, in the process of change. They have
examined millions of specimens, from insects so small that
you have to look at them with a microscope, up to mammals,
but everything is perfect. They have not found one in process
of change, and they have not been able to show that a single
species ever came from another, Darwin said so while he
lived and expressed surprise that, with two or three million
species, they had not found one that they could trace to
another; but he thought we should accept the hypothesis,
even though the 'missing link had not been found' - not
the missing link but he links (plural) had not been found.
If we have a million different species, we must have at
least one million connecting links, one to link each species
to another, but a scientist, speaking in London not long
ago, said that if evolution were true, it would not be one
link between two species, but there would be a million links
between two species, and yet, with a million times a million
links that must have existed if evolution be true, they
have not found a single link. - W. Jennings Bryan
