  2. "...as this process of extermination [survival of the fittest] has acted on an enormous scale, so must the number of intermediate varieties, which have formerly existed on the earth, be truly enormous. Why then is not every geological formation and every stratum full of such intermediate links? Geology assuredly does not reveal any such finely graduated organic chain; and this, perhaps, is the most obvious and gravest objection which can be urged against my theory. The explanation lies, as I believe, in the extreme imperfection of the geological record." Charles Darwin 1859

  15. Alleged Bible Contradictions Jim Merritt (from www.infidels.org - 1992) non-believer - "The Bible is riddled with repetitions and contradictions, things that the Bible bangers would be quick to point out in anything that they want to criticize."

  16. Alleged Bible Contradictions Jim Merritt (from www.infidels.org - 1992) God good to all, or just a few? PSA 145:9 (308) The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. JER 13:14 (374) And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.

  20. Alleged Bible Contradictions Jim Merritt (from www.infidels.org - 1992) Human vs. ghostly impregnation? ACT 2:30 (529) Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; MAT 1:18 (469) Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
