Excerpt from Notes of a Catholic Biologist
Various writers have consulted the book of Nature for the purpose of emphasizing some fundamental idea or theory, and in this manner have commanded the attention of the general reader. But their viewpoint does not always meet with approval, and very Often the serious minded have protested most vehemently against the peculiar interpretation of the facts. The mode of reasoning proves unsatisfactory because a spurious code was employed in the procedure. Such works may be compared to the endeavors of a great scientist of the 17th century, who in all sincerity deciphered the hieroglyphs of the Egyptian obelisks in Rome according to the then prevalent standards of interpretation. Although his rendition was plausible and scholarly, sub sequent events showed that it was far from the truth. It was only after the year 1799, when the Rosetta stone was discovered, that the real signifi cance of the inscriptions became manifest.
