Many suppose that all scientists are convinced that the theory of human evolution has been definitely established as a fact beyond reasonable controversy. But this is not true. There are scientists who are willing to admit that the theory of human evolution is still unproved. Following are brief statements by some of these:

Prof. Beale, of King’s College, London, a distinguished physiologist, said:
“There is no evidence that man has descended from or is, or was, in any way specially related to any  other  organism  in nature, through evolution, or by any other process. In support of all naturalistic conjectures concerning man’s origin there is not at this time, a shadow of scientific evidence.”

Prof. Virchow, a naturalist of world-  wide fame, said:
“The attempt to find the transition from the animal to man has ended in total failure. The middle link has not been found and never will be. Evolution is all nonsense. It cannot be proved by science that man descended from the ape or from any other animal.

”Sir William Dawson, an eminent geologist of Canada, said: “The record of the rocks is decidedly against evolutionists, especially in the abrupt appearance of new forms of specific types, and without predecessors… Paleontology furnishes no evidence as to the actual transformation of one species into another. No such case is certainly known. Nothing is said about the origin of man except what is told in Scripture.” Man is a fallen creature, and is not evolving to higher levels of intelligence.

On this point the late Prof. John Arthur Thomson of Aberdeen, a leading evolutionist, frankly admits that: “Modern research is leading us away from the picture of primitive man as brutish, dull, lascivious, and bellicose. There is more justification for regarding primitive man as clever, kindly, generous, and inventive.”

Along this line Professors Albert Shepherd and John Seybold Morris, in their “Outline of History,” say: “When we open the first page of authentic history we find man in possession of almost all the fundamental inventions. He had learned the art, not only of using tools, but also of making them … In drawing, painting, and sculpture he had developed a very respectable ability in response to his instinctive desire to express his love of the beautiful … Such a picture as these earliest records present to us differs in no great essential from life lived today on great areas of the world’s surface. How all these inventions and discoveries came about we have no certain knowledge.”

Prof. Louis Trenchard More, in his book, “Dogma of Evolution,” page 160 says: “The more one studies paleontology [fossils]  the more certain does one become that evolution is based on faith alone; exactly the same sort of faith which it is necessary to have when one encounters the great “mysteries” of religion. The changes that are noted as time progresses show no orderly and no consecutive evolutionary chain and, above all, they give us no clue whatever as to the cause of variation. The evidence from paleontology is for discontinuity; only by faith and imagination is there continuity of variation.”
