Okay, here’s what I could find. Sorry it took so long, but yes Lynn, I’m on a dialup connection.


It is a common belief among today’s scientists that life’s origin was naturally based, and therefore abiogenesis (life from non-life) must have occurred. Today 95% of the biologists in the National Academy of Science are either atheist or agnostic

All of us who study the origin of life find that the more we look into it, the more we feel it is too complex to have evolved anywhere. We all believe, as an article of faith, that life evolved from dead matter on this planet. It is just that its complexity is so great, it is hard for us to imagine that it did. (Harold C. Urey, quoted in Christian Science Monitor, January 4, 1962, p. 4)

Man is the result of a purposeless and materialistic process that did not have him in mind. He was not planned. He is a state of matter, a form of life, a sort of animal, and a species of the Order Primates, akin nearly or remotely to all of life and indeed to all that is material.”

Simpson, George Gaylord [late Professor of Vertebrate Paleontology, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, USA]

In the evolutionary pattern of thought there is no longer either need or room for the supernatural. The earth was not created: it evolved. So did all the animals and plants that inhabit it, including our human selves, mind and soul as well as brain and body. So did religion. “

Huxley, Julian [late grandson of Thomas Henry Huxley, former Professor of Zoology at King’s College, London, and founding Director-General of UNESCO]

Evolution is unproved and unprovable. We believe it only because the only alternative is special creation and that is unthinkable.”

Sir Arthur Keith, a famous British evolutionist

Life results from the non-random survival of randomly varying replicators.
