Quotes from Evolutionist

"One morning I woke up and something had happened in the night, and it struck me that I had been working on this (evolution) stuff for twenty years and there was not one thing I knew about it.

"(The) question is: Can you tell me anything you KNOW about Evolution? Any one thing? Any one thing that is true?
