The next time you visit a zoo, go see the Great Apes. Recall the histories told by our bodies, by the earth, and by our DNA. These beings are not mere beasts, separated from humanity by an absolute gulf. They are our distant kin, our living link to all other life.
-- God's Word or Human Reason?
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
