The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved in 50 Arguments
Williams, William A. (William Asbury)
Evolution
21. Evolutionists claim at least 8 great transmutations from matter to
man: matter, plant-life, invertebrates, vertebrates, fishes,
amphibians, reptiles, mammals and man. If we make the extremely
generous estimate of 60% to represent the probability of each
transmutation, what is the compound probability that all would take
place? Ans. 1 chance in 60, which means an extreme improbability.
22. If there is 1 chance in 10 that each transmutation has taken place,
which is far more than the evidence warrants, what fraction represents
the probability that all these great changes have occurred? Ans. .1
raised to the eighth power, or .00000001; or 1 chance in 100,000,000.
23. If the probability of a change of one member of one species into
another species be expressed by .1 (an over-estimate), what fraction
marks the probability of a million members making the same change? Ans.
.1 raised to the millionth power; or 1 preceded by 999,999 decimal
ciphers; or a common fraction with 1 as a numerator and a million
figures as a denominator; or 1 chance out of a number expressed by
1,000,000 figures, which would fill 3 volumes like this book. Such
changes were absolutely impossible, but necessary for evolution.
24. If the scattered remains of the pithecanthropus were found in the
sand only 40 ft. below the surface, and the rate of accumulation were
no greater than the slow accretions that buried the mountain city of
Jerusalem 20 feet deep in 1900 years, what would be the extreme age of
these remains? Ans. 3800 years, instead of 750,000 years.
25. If the Heidelberg jaw was found in sand 69 ft. deep, what would be
its maximum age, estimated in the same way? Ans. 6555 years instead of
375,000. Who believes that sand in a river valley would accumulate no
more rapidly than dust on the mountains? Or that it took 750,000 or
even 375,000 years to cover with sand these precious remains such a
shallow depth? A few centuries at most would account for such a depth.
Can there be any doubt that these were abnormal bones of historic man
and brute?
26. Did any other false theory that ever posed as science, have less to
support its claims than evolution?
27. Believing that a Christian should give to the Lord all above his
necessities, none of the profits on this book will be retained by the
publisher, but all will be donated to missions, to be perpetually
loaned to churches, and to preach the gospel through the secular
newspapers, of the world, and to aid in the free distribution of this
book as explained on pages 116 and 117. How many churches will every
$1000 together with the compound interest thereon, help to build in 300
years, if the average loan to each church is $1000 for 5 years at 5%?
Ans. 8,229,024; and the new principal will then be $2,273,528,000.
28. How could $1000 be given to do more good than for these three
purposes?
29. “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world
and lose his own soul?”
