protozoön, a protozoön, but nothing else. The form that lives at every joint upon division, when severed only reproduces its kind, as in the slipping of plants. The graded ascent in created forms accompanying the gradual preparation of the earth, presents many fallacious appearances seeming to confirm Evolution, but a single instance of a lower form producing a higher is entirely wanting.
It is upon such fallacious evidence that Evolution entirely rests. The theory fails not only in its ability to account for the distinction between protoplasm and the moneron, which are supposed to be the same except that the latter is imbued with life, and between the highest animal form and man, but there are as many missing links as there are genera. Suffice it to say here that though many truths, or rather facts, are woven into the theory, the theory itself is vitally defective, the facts, when rightly construed, proving the reverse of Evolution.
It is true that discoveries have been made whereby the evidence essential to establish the principle of Evolution was supposed to have been offered, and they have had their day, like the "house-building ape"; but upon investigation by those less committed to a theory, the mistakes appear, and the evidence fails.
