Is Against Evolution

sTo the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 As citizen of Alabama wish to write my. most solemn and emphatic protest against the teaching of atheistic evolution in the public schools of Alabama-the evolution which teaches that we are related by blood to the lower animals, monkeys, apes, etc, because such teaching denies the real authen- ticity and inspiration of the Bible. holding that the miracles recorded in the Old Testa- men are myths. legends, fables and folklore. Evolution also denies the divinity of Jesus Christ, denies His virgin birth His miracles, His atoning death His resurrection, ascen- sion and the doctrine of His second coming to the earth, thus making void the word and authority of God Almighty by the doctrines and traditions of men.
 2. Because the scientists" sO-called, are not agreed among themselves, and like the wind.. continually shifting from one theory or position to another so that theories that were accepted and popular some years ago are now discarded as untenable
 $. Because they contradict each other in much of their essential and fundamental teaching and are not agreed among them selves. hence an able writer in one of your city papers has lately asserted that the eye lutionist knows no more about much that they are tenching than a negro washer woman of the street. t .f
 4. Because many evolutionists now try to make it appear that evolution is not incon- sistent with the Bible and that the Bible or Christianity is just coming into its own. But some of their leaders do not try to dis guise the truth. but show directly that evo- lution is anti-God and antiBible. T' '3 3. Because after all it's pretentions of su- perior wisdom, science, knowledge, and so forth evolution, instead of being based upon facts, is based upon conjectures. guesses, theories, possibilities, supposition and proba. bilities.
 6. Because '"rhe New Geology" by Pro- lessor George McCready Price. professor of geology. Union College, College View, Ne braRka author of '"rhe Fundamentals of Geology. "A Textbook of General Science" @ k. D." etc. a book of T26 pages we'll printed and Illustrated by the Pacific Press Association. Mountain View, California, just off the press last summer. In this great work Professor Price proceeds to show that the true science of geology. instead of antag- onizing the Bible tends to prove the accuracy of its. statements. and has chapter on the origin and antiquity of man., and quotes one of the greatest geoogsts and scientists of the world, who only a few years ago said. II know nothing about the origin of man. except what I am told in the Scripture that God created him. I do not know any thHlS hiOre tHah tudt' anu uo not knoW or anybody who does.'
 See Evolution versus Creation" just is- sued, debate in Carnegie Hall, New York, January 24, 1924, between Drs. Potter and Straton, flor sale at all booksellers" says the advertisement
 This is a most serious matter and one in which all the people are most yitally inter. ested and the public--the people as a whole should know the facts, hence if the evo lutionists have the truth on their side. lei them come out in the open and present it. SC the masses can see and consider it--let tn, people hear both sides. and think they vii find that what great scientist has lately said is true. He said evolution lis not tn, result of scientific research, but purely thu product of the imagination
