.... God created the heaven and the earth.... Genesis 1:1
"It is therefore right and proper to draw the attention of the non-scientific public to the disagreements about evolution. 
But some recent remarks of evolutionists show that they think this unreasonable.
This situation, where scientific men rally to the defense of a doctrine they are unable to define, much less demonstrate with scientific rigor,
----attempting to maintain its credit with the public by the suppression of criticisms
----and the elimination of difficulties,
*is abnormal and undesirable in science."
W.R. Thompson, Preface to the 1959 Darwin Centennial edition of "On the Origin of Species"
