Frank Zindler Quotes

• The most devastating thing though that biology did to Christianity was the discovery of biological evolution. Now that we know that Adam and Eve never were real people the central myth of Christianity is destroyed. If there never was an Adam and Eve there never was an original sin. If there never was an original sin there is no need of salvation. If there is no need of salvation there is no need of a Savior. And I submit that puts Jesus, historical or otherwise, into the ranks of the unemployed. I think that evolution is absolutely the death knell of Christianity.

• Real scientists are required to play by the rules without exception. Creationists follow the rules of science only so long as it is expedient. Then they resort to miracles.

Could anything be more un-American than the Second Commandment's warning that "I Yahweh, thy God, am a jealous god, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation."? Not even the Common Law would have hung a man because his grandfather had stolen a horse!

• The First Amendment of the US Constitution ... is an eloquent repudiation of the First Commandment's prohibition of religious freedom. It is also a repudiation of the Third Commandment's prohibition of freedom of speech.

• Existe un orden relativo entre las especies fosilizadas de plantas encontradas en el registro geológico que la Geología del Diluvio no puede explicar, a menos que puedas imaginar manzanos y naranjos con zapatillas Nike en sus raíces, corriendo más allá de las magnolias y los mamíferos primitivos, dejando a los ginkgos allí con los dinosaurios cuando las aguas del Diluvio comenzaron a subir.
