Synopsis

Excerpt from Theistic Evolution

From the present attitude of accepting it as a fact it is necessarily taught dogmatically, the result being a large crop of dogmatists, who know practically noth ing of the subject. And yet this theory is spoken of as valuable science and is being so taught.

I hold that it ought not to be taught as a fact in any school, and that when evolution is considered, the method ought to be considered in detail. The present method of teaching it is harmful and misleading.

There is no good reason why the theory of evolution should be presented to pupils in primary and secondary schools. Its consideration should be left to the higher classes in college, and the facts bearing on it, pro and con, should be fully considered when taught.
