Excerpt from Earth's First Man
When these writers cannot agree among themselves but put forth assumptions, theories, hypotheses and speculations that conflict with our intuitions and common sense, we know enough to know that this is not science but something baseless and false. We accept as true that which is proved to be true, but we demand of those who bring against the supernatural origin of man objections from science to prove, first of all, that that which they call science is genuine science, not simply an induction, an hypothesis. A theory, a conception.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the captivating debate surrounding the origin of humanity. It begins by referencing the concept of evolution, popularized by Charles Darwin, and its implications for human ancestry and the existence of a divine creator. The author presents various theories put forth by scientists and anthropologists, such as the Lamarckian idea of progressive development and the Darwinian concept of natural selection. However, the book also challenges these notions, highlighting the absence of evidence supporting the evolution of humans from apes or the existence of a primitive savage state as the starting point of human history. It draws upon historical and archaeological evidence to argue for the coexistence of civilization and barbarism throughout human history. By examining the claims of both science and religion, this book invites readers to critically evaluate the different perspectives on the origins of humanity, encouraging a nuanced understanding of this complex subject.
