John Ambrose Fleming Quotes

The theory [of evolution] is a scientific mistake.

There is a tendency for people to say evolution is only a theory. That is inappropriate.

Evolution is not truth; it is merely a hypothesis-it is millions of guesses strung together.

I think it's a theory... the theory of evolution and I don't accept it as a theory.

[Evolution] doesn't mean God-guided, gradual creation. It means unguided, purposeless change. The Darwinian theory doesn't say that God created slowly. It says that naturalistic evolution is the creator, and so God had nothing to do with it.

Most Americans have their head in the sand about evolution.

There is no such thing as evolution.

I would like evolution to join the roster of other discredited religions...

Some claim evolution is just a theory. As if it were merely an opinion. The theory of evolution, like the theory of gravity, is a scientific fact. Evolution really happened. Accepting our kinship with all life on Earth is not only solid science. In my view, it’s also a soaring spiritual experience.

Evolution is a very, very important idea. It is the explanation for all of life - a stunningly simple, yet powerful explanation. If you think about it, before Darwin, we hadn't the foggiest idea of how we came into being. Now we do. It's still such an exciting idea that it is well worth everybody understanding it.

Of course the theory of evolution would be vacuous if it offered a glib explanation for every inexplicable act.

The first and most important reason for its elimination is the unquestioned fact that evolution is not a science; it is a hypothesis only, a speculation.

Evolution is baseless and quite incredible.

The 'science' for which the United States is respected has nothing to do with the unscientific and baseless theory of evolution.

[Evolution is] one of the best documented, most compelling and exciting concepts in all of science.

People need to understand the basics of evolution if they are going to reject it—otherwise, they are not contributing anything productive to modern society.

Evolution is as much a fact as the heat of the sun.

I doubt evolution is real.

Evolution is one of the most powerful and important ideas ever developed in the history of science. Every question it raises leads to new answers, new discoveries, and new smarter questions. The science of evolution is as expansive as nature itself. It is also the most meaningful creation story that humans have ever found.

The story of evolution unfolds with increasing levels of abstraction.

They say, you know, about evolution, it surely happened because their fossil record shows that. Look, my body and your body are miracles of design. Scientists are pretending they have the answer as how we got this way when natural selection couldn't possibly have produced such machines.

It is grindingly, creakingly, crashingly obvious that if Darwinism was really a theory of chance, it could not work.

...evolution is not a religious tenet, to which one swears allegiance or belief as a matter of faith.. It is a factual reality of the empirical world. Just as one would not say 'I believe in gravity," one should not proclaim 'I believe in evolution.

The theory of evolution explains to us what our ancestry has been. It does not explain away our worth. Why should we be afraid to learn more about what we are?

I have come to the conclusion that Darwinism is not a testable scientific theory, but a metaphysical research programme.
