Theory of Evolution Quotes – Reflections on Life's Development

"In short there is not a shred of objective evidence to support the hypothesis that life began in an organic soup here on the Earth."

Fred Hoyle

"A theory which is not refutable by any conceivable event is non-scientific. Irrefutability is not a virtue of a theory (as people often think) but a vice."

Karl Popper

"A theory that explains everything, explains nothing"

Karl Popper

"“The [Theory of Relativity] is a mass of errors and deceptive ideas violently opposed to the teachings of great men of science of the past and even to common sense. The theory wraps all these errors and fallacies and clothes them in magnificent mathematical garb which fascinates, dazzles and makes people blind to the underlying errors. The theory is like a beggar clothed in purple whom ignorant people take for a king. Its exponents are very brilliant men, but they are metaphysicists rather than scientists. Not a single one of the relativity propositions has been proved.”"

Nikola Tesla

"One of the greatest tragedies of life is the murder of a beautiful theory by a gang of brutal facts."

Benjamin Franklin

"We cannot even solve exactly for the motion of three bodies in Newton’s theory of gravity, and the difficulty increases with the number of bodies and the complexity of the theory. … We already know the laws that govern the behaviour of matter under all but the most extreme conditions. In particular, we know the basic laws that underlie all of chemistry and biology. Yet we have certainly not reduced these subjects to the status of solved problems…"

Stephen W. Hawking

"Modern paleoanthropology is a field of research not without irony: it lacks the very objects of study. … It is as if one were trying to write the history of Central Europe on the basis of nothing more than half a Roman coin, the handkerchief of a maid from the Wilhelmine era, and parts of a microphone […] And so the question of humankind’s origins still remains one of the great, unresolved mysteries of the natural sciences."

GEO-Magazin, Juni 2011

"I myself am convinced that the theory of evolution, especially to the extent to which it has been applied, will be one of the greatest jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so very flimsy and dubious a hypothesis could be accepted with the incredible credulity it has."

Malcolm Muggeridge

"The genome was considered to be the unchanging blueprint of human beings, determined at the beginning of our lives. Science must now abandon this idea. In reality, our genetic makeup is constantly changing.

Two years ago, 25 geneticists gathered at the University of California, Berkeley, to answer a seemingly simple question: What is a gene? However, the attempt to precisely define the basic concept of their field proved to be extremely difficult. The meeting of experts almost ended in disaster, recalls Karen Eilbeck, professor of human genetics at Berkeley and host of the roundtable: “We had hours of meetings. Everyone was yelling at each other.”

The dispute in Berkeley had little to do with researcher vanity. It was the first sign that the life sciences—still unnoticed by the public—were on the verge of a turning point. What researchers are uncovering in the chromosome strands of humans and animals is breaking with previous patterns of thinking in genetics. Much like at the beginning of the 20th century, when Einstein and his colleagues formed a new physical worldview, the age of relativistic genetics may now be dawning.

Medical research in particular is facing new challenges. Initial outlines are becoming apparent: the body and soul, their health, illness, development, and aging are subject to a genetic interplay whose complexity exceeds all previous ideas. Geneticists must abandon their image of a stable genome in which changes are pathological exceptions. Everyone's genetic material is constantly undergoing change. The result: every organism, every human being, even every cell in the body is a genetic universe unto itself."

Ulrich Bahnsen

"If the ‘germ theory of disease’ were correct, there’d be no one living to believe it."

B. J. Palmer

"We must be aware that even people who have been vaccinated three times can transmit the disease... It is obvious that we are a long way from the 95 percent efficacy we achieved against the original virus."

Ugur Sahin

"The current BN162 (Comirnaty) vaccine can induce antibody formation against the alpha and beta variants under laboratory conditions. No data is available on later variants. There has been no variant adaptation of the vaccine since the start of the vaccination campaign, and no adaptation is planned for the boosters. There is no general recommendation for a booster, and the benefits of vaccination must always be weighed up on an individual basis,"

BioNTech

"The vaccine was not specifically designed for the Delta variant, but for a virus that is no longer circulating today, says the virologist. Therefore, the third dose is now necessary for everyone."

Christian Drosten

"A plague of biblical proportions [....] Vaccination is Moses, leading us out of this pandemic."

Winfried Kretschmann

"The mRNA vaccines are an example of cell and gene therapy. If we had conducted a public survey two years ago and asked who would be willing to undergo gene or cell therapy and have it injected into their body, 95 percent of people would probably have refused. This pandemic has opened many people's eyes to innovations in a way that was not possible before."

Stefan Oelrich

"Today's vaccinations are based on the same flawed scientific experiments as the smallpox vaccination. Yet we are told that science has made progress. With a single scientific paper confirming the vaccination theory, my book "The Business of Fear" would have had to be permanently removed from the market."

Dr. med. Gerhard Buchwald

"It is emphatically the case that life could not arise spontaneously in a primeval soup of any kind.... Furthermore, no geological evidence indicates an organic soup ever existed on this planet. We may therefore with fairness call this scenario the myth of the pre-biotic soup."

Fred Hoyle

"Science is prediction, not explanation."

Fred Hoyle
