The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved | Page 3

hypotheses have
been proposed, and accepted as possible and even probable, because reconcilable with
some facts. The Ptolemaic theory of the universe, making the earth the centre, around
which the heavens revolved in great concentric spheres, was accepted for 1400 years
from A. D. 140, because it explained many things. It corresponded with appearances. It
appealed to all. Its advocates had great difficulty in reconciling it with the motions of the
planets, which were therefore called planets or "wanderers." But in time the Copernican
theory prevailed, because it was reconcilable with all the facts. The evidence is so
abundant that all claim it the true theory. It is science. It is knowledge.
Because the Copernican hypothesis, the true theory of the universe, was opposed and
rejected, it does not follow that the evolution of man is true because it is likewise
opposed and rejected. If this new theory, hypothesis, or guess stands, it can only do so,
because it harmonizes with all the facts. The law of gravitation, and every other proven
theory harmonizes with all the facts and with all other true theories.
It will be shown in this book, that a large number of facts can not be reconciled with
evolution, especially the evolution of man, thus proving that it can not be a true theory.
We really have a right to demand the proof of a theory, and to refuse consent until proved.
While we are under no obligation to disprove an unproven theory, yet it is the shortest
way to settle the matter once for all, before it has led multitudes more astray, and
wrecked the faith and hopes of the young.
Prof. H. H. Newman, in his "Readings in Evolution," p. 57, says, "Reluctant as we may
be to admit it, honesty compels the evolutionist to admit that there is no absolute proof of
organic evolution." "If all the facts are in accord with it, and none are found that are
incapable of being reconciled with it, a working hypothesis is said to have been advanced
to a proven theory." Note this admission by a leading evolutionist.
Even if it should ever be proved that all plant and animal life came by evolution from one

primordial germ, it would not follow that either the body or the soul of man came by
evolution. All the arguments against evolution in general are valid against the evolution
of man. In addition, there are many other arguments, that prove the evolution of man
impossible, even if the evolution of plants and animals should ever be proved possible.
In this volume, the claim is made that the evolution of man is irreconcilable with a large
number of facts. If investigation proves that we have erred in any statement of facts, or if
our reasoning in any one argument or more is fallacious, we will not lose our case, as
long as evolution remains irreconcilable with any other single fact. If every argument in
this book were invalid, save one, that one valid argument would overthrow evolution,
since every true theory must be reconcilable with all the facts. One irreconcilable fact is
sufficient to overthrow evolution. And there are many!
THE UNITY OF THE HUMAN RACE
The evolution of man is not only a guess, but a very wild one; and it is totally
unsupported by any convincing arguments. It can be mathematically demonstrated to be
an impossible theory. Every proof of the unity of the human race in the days of Adam or
Noah shatters the theory of the evolution of man. If the evolution of the human race be
true, there must have been, hundreds of thousands of years ago, a great multitude of
heads of the race, in many parts of the earth, without one common language or religion.
The present population of the globe proves that mankind must have descended from one
pair who lived not earlier than the time of Noah. The unity of languages also proves one
common head about the same time. Certain beliefs and customs, common to various
religions, point to one original God-given religion in historic time, in contrast to the
evolution idea of many religions invented by ape-men in millions of years. The history of
the world and the migration of nations point to one locality where the human race began
in times not more remote, and show that man was created in a civilized state, and,
therefore, never was a brute. If evolution were true, there would have been many billion
times as many human beings as now exist, a great multitude of invented languages with
little or no similarity, a vast number of invented religions with little, if anything, in
common. Even the sciences invented and exploited by evolutionists, the Mendelian
Inheritance Law and Biometry, also prove evolution impossible.
