Words of Darwin

“I have asked myself whether I may not have devoted my life to a fantasy...I...am ready to cry with vexation at my blindness and presumption."

Darwin admitted, "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organism existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down."

well even Evolutionists will say there is no fossil records. here is a quote from one foremost evolutionists

The fossil record with its abrupt transitions offers no support for gradual change ........ All palaeontologists know that the fossil record contains precious little in the way of intermediate forms; transitions between major groups are characteristically abrupt" (Gould, 1977).
and other qoutes.

Also Dr T S Kemp, Curator of Zoological collections, Oxford University said:-"In virtually all cases a new taxon appears for the first time in the fossil record with most definitive features already present, and practically no known stem-group forms." (Kemp, 1999).

Evolutionist David Raup, Curator of Geology at Chicago's Field Museum of Natural History also said:- "The evidence we find in the geological record is not nearly as compatible with Darwinian natural selection as we would like it to be ....We now have a quarter of a million fossil species but the situation hasn't changed much. The record of evolution is surprisingly jerky and, ironically, we have even fewer examples of evolutionary transition than in Darwin's time ... so Darwin's problem has not been alleviated" (Raup, Field museum of Natural History Bulletin).


The prominent British evolutionist Richard Dawkins speaking of the Cambrian fauna, has made the following comment: "And we find many of them already in an advanced state of evolution, the very first time they appear. It is as though they were just planted there, without any evolutionary history. Needless to say, this appearance of sudden planting has delighted creationists". Richard Dawkins, The Blind Watchmaker (New York: W.W. Norton Co., 1987).

"One of the reasons I started taking this anti-evolutionary view, was ... it struck me that I had been working on this stuff for twenty years and there was not one thing I knew about it. That's quite a shock to learn that one can be so misled so long. ...so for the last few weeks I've tried putting a simple question to various people and groups of people. Question is: Can you tell me anything you know about evolution, any one thing that is true? I tried that question on the geology staff at the Field Museum of Natural History and the only answer I got was silence. I tried it on the members of the Evolutionary Morphology Seminar in the University of Chicago, a very prestigious body of evolutionists, and all I got there was silence for a long time and eventually one person said, 'I do know one thing -- it ought not to be taught in high school'." Dr. Colin Patterson, Senior Paleontologist, British Museum of Natural History, London Keynote address at the American Museum of Natural History, New York City, 5 November, 1981

Why is that a Christian site and not a scientific site? Would you go to a KKK member to find out about blacks or catholics or Jews? I don't think so. Please provide actual scientific back up for these things. A scientists site, or an actual Science book. Just because you read it on some site on the web and it happens to support your personal belief, doesn't mean it's true.

And just where is this Darwin quote from? I have read several things of his and have not seen this. I know that first quote is actually someone elses quote claiming to quote Darwin... yet no back up for that either.

What about the evolution of birds? There are many transitional fossils, dinosaurs, that show how the pysiology of the modern bird came to be. It all started with elongated scales which gradually became fine hairs, the hairs became branched which were good at catching air as small arboreal dinosaurs leapt form tree to tree to catch prey and so on and so on....
Please dont give us links to bias articles on Christian websites, evolution is fact my good man and a few selected quotes form Darwin doesnt change a thing but it doesnt mean you cant beleive in god or live your life by Christian values.

Somebody could have an article saying that the Smurfs were real and start a website.

And you didn't cite where you got Darwin's words from. Everyone knows that some crazy fundie made up a bunch of supposedly "deathbed confessions" that were completely fictionalized. You're really not very good at the academic approach, you may as well just give it up.

You could be correct with: FACTS that there is no Fossil Evidence to support Evolution? But i doubt it. I ask bible thumpers to validate the bible using non-biblical sources, but that takes away the only answer they have which is...'God did it'. Darwin is still respected for a reason. At least we can prove Darwin existed.

Try reading quotes in the original for a change. Rather than take them from lying websites which either take them completely out of context or make them up entirely.

And any walk through a Natural History Museum will show you hundreds of fossils supporting evolution. Of course you are so dishonest you will pretend you can't see what is right in front of your eyes.

looking fossils can't instruct evolution, notwithstanding it may disprove it. the reality is they discover similarities in fossils, and picture that that ought to instruct that there have been problem-free ancestors. notwithstanding, that's a really weak end. that's the ideal end, notwithstanding, that ought to nicely be made by using those who sense that there isn't any supernatural skill (that's a question that technology can't attitude).

In Origin of Species (1859), Darwin did, indeed, say "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down."

However, being that you got that quote from one of the infamous 'Liars For Jesus' (LFJ) web sites, they conveniently LEFT OUT the next sentence, as is their habit, knowing that their scientifically ignorant Christian constituency is too lazy and stupid to check things out on their own, and that they can lie and mislead with impunity.

The very next sentence is: "But I can find out no such case."

Darwin' statement is the essence of ANY and ALL good scientific theories... FALSIFIABILITY. All that it would take is ONE INSTANCE that is found to be in conflict to derail the theory in whole or in part. So, Darwin said "But I can find out no such case." Guess what? NOBODY ELSE HAS, EITHER... in over 140 years.

The same LFJ web sites that provided you with misleading out-of-context quotes also provide you with outright lies, such as Behe's 'irreduceable complexity', which cites the eye, bacterial flagellum and blood clotting factor as examples. Again... GUESS WHAT? ALL of Behe's examples are BOGUS... and the steps and the mechanisms by which they were achieved are WELL understood, in terms of mutation and natural selection, in terms of organic chemistry, and at the genetic level.

Look... if you want scientific information, go to scientific sources... not to professional liars whose mission it is to deceive you, and present you only with misinformation, misrepresentation and pseudoscience, and take advantage of your scientific ignorance and gullibility

This sh*t makes me sick.

Ok, I read it, and i have two things to say to you.

First, Carbon (the leading component in fossils) breaks down over time, and the reason some fossils are missing from the record is because of this natural decompostion. The only ones we have were accidentally preserved in stone or swamps.

Second: GO TO A HISTORY MUSEUM AND LOOK AT THE FREAKING FOSSILS!

Without bias, of course...

Wrong. There is plenty of fossil evidence to support evolution. I have some right next to me. Evolution is true god isn't the sooner you realize that the better. Say no to jesus.
