The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved in 50 Arguments
Williams, William A. (William Asbury)
Evolution
If evolution could be shown reconcilable with Christianity it would be
lifted into respectability, but what would be the gain to Christianity?
The Christian religion is reconcilable with all true science, and hails
every true science with joy. The church loves true science, but hates a
lie that poses as the truth. Christianity is readily reconcilable with
the true sciences of Astronomy and Chemistry, but we do not try to
reconcile it with the corresponding false sciences of astrology and
alchemy. Why should we be concerned about such a reconciliation, since
all the evidence offered in favor of evolution is not worthy of serious
consideration? The facts hotly contest every guess. There is no
conflict between Christianity and science. But evolution is not
science. It is not knowledge. It is not truth. It is not proved. It is
not certain. It is not probable. It is not possible. How can the
serious student escape the conviction that evolution has not one chance
out of a thousand, or even out of a million, to be a possible theory,
and none whatever to be a probable or proven theory? It offers not one
convincing argument. The evidence against the theory shows that it has
not yet been proven and never can be.
The present population of the globe shows the unity of man in the days
of Noah, and that the human race could not have begun 2,000,000 years
ago, nor 1,000,000, nor 100,000, nor even 10,000. And no evidence that
the evolutionist can bring to bear _now or hereafter_ can ever set
aside this mathematical demonstration. This one argument is sufficient
to shatter evolution, if there were no more. But the whole fifty
arguments in this book rush to the support of this one. They all
harmonize with the Bible statements, but not one of them with the false
and baneful theory of evolution. And no erroneous guess that they can
make will escape mathematical detection. Why should we gratify the
clamor of evolutionists, and seek to reconcile Christianity with a
theory so manifestly false? To be worthy of acceptance, it must
satisfactorily answer every one of the fifty arguments in this book and
many more. Can it do so?
Evolution carried to a logical conclusion would destroy every thing
precious to the heart of a Christian. It denies the real inspiration of
the Bible. It makes Moses a liar. It denies the story of creation, and
substitutes an impossible guess. It denies miracles, the providence of
God, the creation of man and beast, and God’s government and control of
the world. It laughs at the Virgin Birth and makes Christ a descendant
of the brute on both sides. It denies his deity, his miracles, his
resurrection from the dead. It joins hands with agnosticism, modernism,
and other forms of infidelity and atheism and gives them the strongest
support they have ever had. All these hail evolution’s advent with
exceeding great joy. It has the closest affinity with the wildest and
worst theories ever proposed.
