Who Is The Ignoramus
Who Is the Ignoramus?
Evolution is not a theory, but a hypothesis….Today there is not a scientist in all the world who can trace one single species to any other, and yet they call us ignoranmuses and bigots because we do not throw away our Bible and accept it as proved that out of two or three million species not a one is traceable to another. And they say evolution is a fact when they cannot prove that one species came from another, and if there is such a thing, all species must have come, commencing as they say, commencing in that one lonely cell down there in the bottom of the ocean that just evolved and evolved until it got to be a man. And they cannot find a single species that came from another, and yet they demand that we allow them to teach this stuff to our children, that they may come home with their imaginary tree and scoff at their mother’s and father’s Bible. -William Jennings Bryan, July 16, 1925
