The evolutionary hypothesis of spontaneous generation preceded Darwinian evolution and was elucidated by Aristotle three hundred years before the birth of Christ. It was the belief that life emanated from decaying meat or grain stored in barns with thatched roofs. About spontaneous generation, English philosopher and journalist Malcolm Muggeridge said, "I, myself am convinced that spontaneous generation will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so flimsy and dubious a hypothesis could be accepted with the incredible credulity that it has!" An...
The evolutionary hypothesis of spontaneous generation preceded Darwinian evolution and was elucidated by Aristotle three hundred years before the birth of Christ. It was the belief that life emanated from decaying meat or grain stored in barns with thatched roofs. About spontaneous generation, English philosopher and journalist Malcolm Muggeridge said, "I, myself am convinced that spontaneous generation will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so flimsy and dubious a hypothesis could be accepted with the incredible credulity that it has!" And he's right! Who, today, would ever think that life emanates from decaying meat? But wait, Malcolm Muggeridge did not make that statement about spontaneous generation. He made the statement about Darwinian evolution. What he actually said was, "I, myself am convinced that the theory of evolution, especially to the extent to which it has been applied, will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so flimsy and dubious a hypothesis could be accepted with the incredible credulity that it has!" Will people, in the near future, find Darwinian evolution as laughable as we find spontaneous generation?
