The foundation of true holiness and true Christian worship is the doctrine of the gospel, what we are to believe. So when Christian doctrine is neglected, forsaken, or corrupted, true holiness and worship will also be neglected, forsaken, and corrupted.
John Owen

Creation – The Fossils Say Yes

No one has devoted himself more wholeheartedly than Simpson (Gaylord) to what Dobzhansky has called “the mechanistic materialist philosophy shared by most of the present establishment in the biological sciences.” – T. Dobzhansky, Science 175:49

Simpson asserts that most paleontologists “find it logical, if not scientifically required, to assume that the sudden appearance of a new systematic group is not evidience for creation…” -G.G. Simpson, “The Major Features of Evolution, Columbia University.

Simpson has thus expended considerable effort in attempts to bend and twist every facet of evolution theory to explain away the deficiences of the fossil record. – Simpson, “The Major Features of Evolution” p 360; Tempo and Mode in Evolution pp. 105-124; The Evolution of Life pp. 360-376.

One needs to be reminded, however, that if evolution is adopted as priori principle, it is always possible to imagine auxiliary hypotheses-unproved and by nature unprovable-to make it work in any specific case. By this process biological evolution degenerates into what Thorpe calls one of his “four pillars of unwisdom” –mental evolution that is the reslut of random tries preserved by reinforcements. -W. Thorpe, New Scientist.

In reference to the nature of the record, Arnold has said: It has long been hoped that extinct plants will ultimately reveal soem of the stages through which exisiting groups have passed during the course of their development, but it must freely be admitted that this aspiration has been fulfilled to a very slight extent, even though paleobotanical research has been in progress for more than one hundred years. – C.A. Arnold, “An Introduction To Paleobotany”

The following remarks of Professor E.J.H Corner of the Cambridge univerity botany school were quite candid: Much evidence can be adduced in favor of the theory of evolution – from biology, biogeography, and palentology, but I still think that to the unprejudiced, the fossil record of plants is in favor of special creation. – Corner, “Contemporary Botanical thought”, p. 97
