Incidentally, those quotes were from EVOLUTIONISTS!
Okay, here are my sources. I intentionally didn't reveal
them the first time so that I could get
"unbiased" reaction -- of course, I know that the
reaction can't be unbiased. Evolutionists are as firmly
entrenched in their humanistic religious beliefs about
the beginning of the world as I am in believing God

Statement made by EVOLUTIONIST L. Harrison Matthews in
his Introduction to C. Darwins "The Origin of
Species" (reprint, London: J. M. Dent and Sons, Ltd.,
1971), p. XI as quoted by D. Gish in "The Fossils
Still Say NO!", p 5.

Statement made by EVOLUTIONIST R. Danson in "New
Scientist, 49:35, 1971 as quoted by D. Gish in "The
Fossils Still Say NO!", p 8.
Incidentally, this book by Gish is fascinating reading.
It doesn't blow evolution out of the water -- the Bible
already does that -- but it sure gives some interesting
arguments. Anyone else out there read it?
If evolution is "fact," why is there so much
disagreement among evolutionists as to how it happened?
WHERE ARE THE TRANSITIONAL FOSSILS?
Yes, I realize that secondary quotes are not as good as primary quotes, but I didn't have access at the time to the original sources.
Thought I'd give you an exercise in thinking. Thanks for the reactions!
Oh, yes, and by the way -- Thanksgiving is one of those quaint American customs started by those who determined that the right to worship the Creator as they ought was more important and anything else in their lives. I'm thankful for it.
