Just a little something from the past, to put you in the mood for the coming Darwin bicentennial on Feb 12. Who was the "illustrious master" Haeckel? Go to this thread.

Wallace, unfortunately, has gone over to the enemy-- he has become a spiritualist; there remains to us, therefore, only Professor Haeckel, the boldest and most effective fighter of them all, and no incident connected with the making of my book has given me quite so much gratification as his willingness to receive the dedication.

Says it all. And that mentality is still there.

EONS ago, when the Megatherium and the Dinatherium fought, and the huge tusks of the Mastodon and the Mammoth clashed, and gigantic reptiles crawled on their bellies over the face of the earth, and the yell and howl of Cretaceous creatures resounded thru the primitive jungle, -- the world was savage.

Later, an ape-like being grasped a hanging branch, and raised itself to an upright position, and peered into the primeval forest. This was the immediate ancestor of Man, --- but the world was savage still.

In the Tertiary epoch, for the first time appeared an animal that walked erect, and used a tool, and wore a garment. This was lordly Man himself, -- but the world was savage still.

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

ROTFLOL!!!!!!!!

Once upon a time.......

I always enjoy reading the extracts from your antique collection. It’s a diversion from grappling with the deluge of modern evidence that is continually driving evolutionary science forward. Thanks!

Why people refuse to see this cult for what it is, escapes me.

None so ignorant as those who ignore the truth!
