The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved in 50 Arguments
Williams, William A. (William Asbury)
Evolution
Prof. Beale, of King’s College, London, a distinguished physiologist,
said: “There is no evidence that man has descended from, or is, or was,
in any way specially related to, any other organism in nature, through
evolution, or by any other process. In support of all naturalistic
conjectures concerning man’s origin, there is not, at this time, a
_shadow of scientific evidence_.”
Prof. Virchow, of Berlin, a naturalist of world wide fame, said: “The
attempt to find the transition from the animal to man has ended in
total failure. The middle link has not been found and never will be.
Evolution is all nonsense. It can not be proved by science that man
descended from the ape or from any other animal.”
Prof. Fleishman, of Erlangen, who once accepted Darwinism, but after
further investigation repudiated it, said: “The Darwinian theory of
descent has not a single fact to confirm it, in the realm of nature. It
is not the result of scientific research, but is purely the product of
the imagination.”
Prof. Agassiz, one of the greatest scientists of any age, said: “The
theory [of the transmutation of species] is a scientific mistake,
untrue in its facts, unscientific in its method, and mischievous in its
tendency.... There is not a fact known to science, tending to show that
a single kind has ever been transmuted into any other.”
Dr. W. H. Thompson, former president of N. Y. Academy of Medicine,
said: “The Darwinian theory is now rejected by the majority of
biologists, as absurdly inadequate. It is absurd to rank man among the
animals. His so called fellow animals, the primates—gorilla, orang and
chimpanzee—can do nothing truly human.”
Sir William Dawson, an eminent geologist, of Canada, said: “The record
of the rocks is decidedly against evolutionists, especially in the
abrupt appearance of new forms under specific types, and without
apparent predecessors.... Paleontology furnishes no evidence as to the
actual transformation of one species into another. No such case is
certainly known. Nothing is known about the origin of man except what
is told in Scripture.”
The foremost evolutionists, Spencer, Huxley and Romanes, before their
death, repudiated Darwinism. Haeckel alone supported the theory and
that by forged evidence.
Dr. St. George Mivert, late professor of biology in the University
College of Kensington, calls Darwinism a “puerile hypothesis.”
Dr. James Orr, of Edinburg University, says: “The greatest scientists
and theologians of Europe are now pronouncing Darwinism to be
absolutely dead.”
Dr. Traas, a famous palaeontologist, concludes: “The idea that mankind
is descended from any simian species whatever, is certainly the most
foolish ever put forth by a man writing on the history of man.” Does
this apply to H. G. Wells?
