The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved in 50 Arguments
Williams, William A. (William Asbury)
Evolution
“In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him.”
This likeness was not a physical likeness as a learned (?) university
professor asserted, but a likeness in _knowledge, righteousness and
holiness_. No animal is made in the image of God. There is not the
trace of a soul in all animal creation. How could the soul of man
develop from nothing?
God is still creating new creatures in Christ Jesus, in righteousness
and true holiness, which can not come by evolution, for sinful
creatures can only grow in sinfulness, until the creative power of God
makes them new creatures, as the following study in Eugenics will show:
Elizabeth Tuttle, the grandmother of Jonathan Edwards, the eminent
scholar and divine, was, according to H. E. Walter, a “woman of great
beauty, of tall and commanding appearance, striking carriage, of
strong, extreme intellectual vigor, and mental grasp akin to rapacity,
but _with an extraordinary deficiency in moral sense. She was divorced
from her husband on the ground of adultery and other_ IMMORALITIES. The
evil trait was in the blood, for one of her sisters murdered her own
son, and a brother murdered his own sister, As Richard Edwards, his
grandfather, had 5 sons and 1 daughter, by a second wife, but none of
their numerous progeny rose above mediocrity, and their descendants
gained no abiding reputation, Jonathan Edwards must have owed his
remarkable mental qualities largely to his grandmother rather than his
grandfather. He was evidently a new creation in Christ Jesus and was
cured by grace of all inherited immoralities, so that he became the
ancestor of one of the most remarkable families in the history of the
world, as follows:—
“Jonathan Edwards was born in 1703. He was strong in character,
mentally vigorous and fearlessly loyal to duty. In 1900, of the
descendants of Jonathan Edwards, 1394 had been located and the
following information in regard to them had been gathered: College
presidents, 13; college professors, 65; doctors, 60; clergymen,
missionaries, etc., 100; officers in the army and navy, 75; eminent
authors and writers, 60; lawyers, over 100; judges, 30; holders of
public offices, one being vice-president of the United States, 80;
United States senators, 3; managers of railroads, banks, insurance
companies, etc., 15; college graduates, 295; several were governors and
holders of important state offices.”
The claim is also made that “almost if not every department of social
progress and of public weal has felt the impulse of this healthy and
long-lived family.”
“The ‘Jukes’ family was founded by a shiftless fisherman born in New
York in 1720, Since that time the family has numbered 1200 persons. The
following facts are quoted from the _records_: Convicted criminals,
130; habitual thieves, 60; murderers, 7; wrecked by diseases of
wickedness, 440; immoral women, fully one-half; professional paupers,
310; trades learned by twenty, ten of these learned the trade in
prison.
