“Is demum miser est, cuius nobilitas miserias nobilitat. Indeed, wretched the man whose fame makes his misfortunes famous.” Quote by Publius Attius Varus
“The Gods did not reveal, from the beginning, all things to us, but in the course of time through seeking we may learn & know things better. But as for certain truth no man knows it, nor shall he know it, neither of the Gods nor yet of all things that I speak. For even if by chance he were to utter The Final Truth, he would himself not know it: for all is but a woven web of guesses.” IfsKnowsMenMayCertainCoursesSpeakChanceIgnoranceEconomicsAll ThingsFinalsSeekingWoven Author:Xenophanes

“Meanwhile, their [evolutionists] unproven theories will continue to be accepted by the learned and the illiterate alike as absolute truth, and will be defended with a frantic intolerance that has a parallel only in the bigotry of the darkest Middle Ages. If one does not accept evolution as an infallible dogma, implicitly and without question, one is regarded as an unenlightened ignoramus or is merely ignored as an obscurantist or a naive, uncritical fundamentalist.” IfsDoeAgeAcceptingMiddleTheoryEvolutionAbsolutesAcceptedBigotryIntoleranceDogmaIgnoredNaiveParallelsMiddle AgesFundamentalistInfallibleIlliterateAbsolute TruthFrantic Author:Alfred M.

“It is my conviction that if any professional biologist will take adequate time to examine carefully the assumptions upon which the macro-evolution doctrine rests, and the observational and laboratory evidence that bears on the problem of origins, he/she will conclude that there are substantial reasons for doubting the truth of this doctrine. Moreover, I believe that a scientifically sound creationist view of origins is not only possible, but it is to be preferred over the evolutionary one.” IfsBelieveReasonProblemI BelieveSoundViewsDoubtBearsEvolutionEvidenceConvictionDoctrineAssumptionAdequateLaboratoryBiologistMacroCreationist Author:Dean H.

“The facts of paleontology seem to support creation and the flood rather than evolution.
