‘After all, it is as respectable to be modified monkey as modified dirt’.

- Huxley is ignoring a vital fact here; who or what does the modification. Man has to be made of something after all, and so what is important is not what he's made out of but who made him.

i.e. it's of vital import whether man is an accident of time and physics or whether he's a being made by God (after the image of God).

Hi creation.com thanks for your excellent articles. I just found out something interesting, apparently Thomas Huxley had a part in starting the science journal 'Nature' and played a role in designing the education curriculum in biology textbooks. Hmm talk about brainwashing people.
