CHARLES DARWIN'S STARTLING CONFESSIONS!
"ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES" A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT!

darwin

Charles Darwin - the Apostle of Evolution
note the full title!

Full title of Darwin's Book:
"The Origin of the Species by means of  Natural Selection  OR the preservation of the favoured races in the struggle for life" - Favoured races?

The theory is as nonsensical as the cartoon

CONFESSION IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL

"You will be greatly disappointed (by the forthcoming book); it will be grievously too hypothetical. It will very likely be of no other service than collocating some facts; though I myself think I see my way approximately on the origin of the species. But, alas, how frequent, how almost universal it is in an author to persuade himself of the truth of his own dogmas."

Charles Darwin, 1858, in a letter to a colleague regarding the concluding chapters of his "Origin of Species". As quoted in "John Lofton's Journal", The Washington Times, 8 February 1984.

AN HIGH DEGREE ABSURDITY

"To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree."
Charles Darwin in "The Origin of Species", J. M. Dent & Sons Ltd. London, 1971, p. 167

DARWIN: HOPELESSLY MUDDLED

"I grieve to say that I cannot honestly go as far as you do about design, I am conscious that I am in an utterly hopeless muddle. Again I say I am, and shall ever remain in a hopeless muddle."
Charles Darwin in a letter to Asa Gray, November, 1860

THE BIBLE SAYS:

Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? (Luke 6:39)
Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. (Hebrews 11:3)
