• In 2007, a Newsweek poll found that 91% of U.S. adults believe in God, and only 3% are atheists. (Brian Braiker, “God’s Numbers”, 3-31-07). Evolution is an atheistic theory.
• Galileo said: “I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.”
• Sir Isaac Newton said: “The most beautiful system of the sun, planets, and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being.” (The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, Book III, p. 310-314).
• Albert Einstein said: “In view of such harmony in the cosmos which I, with my limited human mind, am able to recognize, there are yet people who say there is no God. But that makes me really angry is that they quote me for support of such views.” (Max Jammer, Einstein and Religion: Physics and Theology 1999: 97).
• Einstein also said: “The deeper one penetrates into nature’s secrets, the greater becomes one’s respect for God.” (Denis Brian, Einstein: A Life, 1996: 119.
• Fredrich Durrenmatt said that “Einstein used to speak of God so often that I almost looked upon him as a disguised theologian.” (Friedrich Durrenmatt, Albert Einstein, 1979).
• Ralph Waldo Emerson said: “All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen.”
• Sir Frederick Hoyle, famous astronomer, said: “The likelihood of the spontaneous formation of life from inanimate matter is one to a number with 40,000 noughts after it…It is big enough to bury Darwin and the whole theory of evolution There was no primeval soup, neither on this planet nor on any other, and if the beginnings of life were not random, they must therefore have been the product of purposeful intelligence.” (Sire Fred Hoyle, Evolution form Space, 1984: 148).
• Renown scientist Stephen Hawking said: “The universe and the laws of physics seem to have been specifically designed for us. If any one of the 40 physical qualifies had more than slightly different values, life as we know it could not exist: Either atoms would not be stable, or they wouldn’t combine into molecules, or the stars wouldn’t form…or the universe would collapse before life could develop and so on.” (Stephen Hawking, Austin American-Statesman, October 19, 1997).
• Molecular biologist Michael Denton acknowledged: “Although the tiniest bacterial cells are incredibly small…[they are] far more complicated than any machinery built by man and absolutely without parallel in the non-living world.” (Michael Denton, Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, 1986: 250).
• Denton also wrote: “The complexity of the simplest known type of cell is so great that it is impossible to accept that such an object could have been thrown together suddenly in some kind of freakish, vastly improbable, event. Such an occurrence would be indistinguishable from a miracle.”
• Molecular biologist James Shapiro wrote: “There are no detailed Darwinian accounts for evolution of any fundamental biochemical or cellular system, only a variety of wishful speculations. It is remarkable that Darwinism is accepted as a satisfactory explanation for such a vast subject.” (James Shapiro, “In the Details…What?” National Review, September 19, 1996: 62-65).
• Richard Hutton, producer of the 2001 PBS series “Evolution” said: “The origin of life. There is no consensus at all here---lots of theories, little science. That’s one of the reasons we didn’t cover it in the series. The evidence wasn’t very good.” (Washington Post online forum, September 26, 2001).
• Voltaire was considered to be a famous atheist but he wrote: “What is faith? Is it to believe that which is evidence? No. It is perfectly evident to my mind that there exists a necessary, eternal, supreme, and intelligent being. This is not matter of faith, but of reason.” (Voltaire, The Works of Voltaire, Vol. 4, 1901).
• Antony Flew was a famous atheist that came to believe in the existence of God. He wrote: “With every passing year, the more that was discovered about the richness and inherent intelligence of life, the less it seemed likely that a chemical soup could magically generate the genetic code…No, I did not hear a Voice. It was the evidence itself that led me to this conclusion.” (Antony Flew, interview with Dr. Benjamin Wike, October 30, 2007).
• Professor Theodore Roszak said: “The irony is devastating. The main purpose of Darwinism was to drive every last trace of an incredible God from biology. But the theory replaces God with an even more incredible deity---omnipotent chance.” (Theodore Roszak, Unfinished Animal, 1975: 101-102).
• Even Charles Darwin wrote the following in a letter: “The impossibility of conceiving that this grand and wondrous universe, with our conscious selves, arose through chance, seems to me the chief argument for the existence of God…I am aware that if we admit a first cause, the mind still craves to know whence it came and how it arose.” (Charles Darwin, letter to a Dutch student, April 2, 1873, The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, 1888: 306.)
