More From John Harvey Kellogg

The church demonstrated the falsity and folly of darwin's theories by showing that they contradicted the mosaic account of creation, and now that the theories of darwin having been fairly established, the church says that the mosaic account is true because it is in harmony with darwin. now, if it should turn out that darwin was mistaken, what then?

It's true the holy spirit alone can reproduce the character of our lord jesus, and we must always abide in christ. but the bible also makes us active partners in the process, and we must be diligent to do our part. "be diligent to present yourself approved to god, a worker who does not need to be ashamed".

And talking about dark! you think dark is just one color, but it ain't. there're five or six kinds of black. some silky, some woolly. some just empty. some like fingers. and it don't stay still, it moves and changes from one kind of black to another. saying something is pitch black is like saying something is green. what kind of green? green like my bottles? green like a grasshopper? green like a cucumber, lettuce, or green like the sky is just before it breaks loose to storm? well, night black is the same way. may as well be a rainbow.

A chinese paleontologist lectures around the world saying that recent fossil finds in his country are inconsistent with the darwinian theory of evolution. his reason: the major animal groups appear abruptly in the rocks over a relatively short time, rather than evolving gradually from a common ancestor as darwin's theory predicts. when this conclusion upsets american scientists, he wryly comments: "in china we can criticize darwin but not the government. in america you can criticize the government but not darwin."

And then he drew a dial from his poke, and looking with lack-lustre eye, says very wisely, 'it is ten o'clock: thus we may see', quoth he, 'how the world wags: 'tis but an hour ago since it was nine, and after one hour more 'twill be eleven; and so from hour to hour we ripe and ripe, and then from hour to hour we rot and rot.

Human beings have got a lot of good, noble impulses inside them, and most people want to be good and do more good than they do evil. hell, we've had nuclear weapons now for thirty or thirty-five years and nothing's happened yet. that in itself seems to be a miracle. if reagan pushes the button or somebody pushes the button in russia or somebody pushes it in costa rica, they can put a big tombstone in outer space that says, "we gave it a good try." because we have.
