THE NEANDERTHAL SKULL. 229 



Having thus seen the opinions of so 

 many eminent scientists adverse to the 

 Evolution theory, let me quote the opposite 

 opinion in the words of those who appear 

 to be its ardent supporters. Nevertheless, 

 the most illustrious of them all seems to 

 have serious doubts regarding the sound- 

 ness of his own special theory. 



1. Darwin. " To suppose that the eye 

 could have been formed by Natural 

 Selection, seems absurd in the highest 

 possible degree." 



2. Tyndall. "It is certain that the 

 Darwinian theory of Evolution must un- 

 dergo modifications." 



3. Huxley. " It is more profitable to 

 go wrong with Haeckel, than to stand 

 still." 



4. Haeckel. " Worms originated by 

 means of spontaneous generation from 

 the inorganic compounds of carbon, &c., 

 and are the direct ancestors of man." 



5. Louis Bilchner. " The Evolution 

 theory is perfectly irreconcilable with the 

 idea of & personal Almighty Creator."
