Quotes about Creationism

I am not a creationist as the term is usually understood. I believe that the earth is billions of years old and the universe even older.

Creationist critics often charge that evolution cannot be tested, and therefore cannot be viewed as a properly scientific subject at all. This claim is rhetorical nonsense.

Darwinian evolution is unscientific, unobservable, unbelievable, but understandable in a world that hates God.
