No wonder paleontologists shied away from evolution for so long. |
"No wonder paleontologists shied away from evolution for so long. It never
seems to happen..Evolution cannot forever be going on somewhere else. Yet
that's how the fossil record has struck many a forlorn paleontologist
looking to learn something about evolution." Niles Eldredge, one of
the world's leading experts on invertebrate fossils.

I'll bet you have no idea where to find that 'quote' or what the context
was. Quote-mining is profoundly dishonest.

Once upon a time in alt.atheism, dear sweet Richard Dawkins
(Dawkins@Hell.com) made the light shine upon us with this:
"No wonder paleontologists shied away from evolution for so long. It
never seems to happen..Evolution cannot forever be going on somewhere
else. Yet that's how the fossil record has struck many a forlorn
paleontologist looking to learn something about evolution."
Niles Eldredge, one of the world's leading experts on invertebrate
fossils.
Do you creationists conclude that children never grow because you can't see
them growing?
