In the older tertiaries, the places of existing animals and plants are taken by other forms, as numerous and diversified as those which live now in the same localities, but more or less different from them; in the mesozoic rocks, these are replaced by others yet more divergent from modern types; and, in the paleozoic formations, the contrast is still more marked. keywords: animals; birds; bones; day; doctrine; evidence; evolution; forms; horse; hypothesis; nature; present; remains; rocks; series; teeth; time cache: 2629.txt plain text: 2629.txt item: #6 of 29 id: 2630 author: Huxley, Thomas Henry title: The Interpreters of Genesis and the Interpreters of Nature Essay #4 from "Science and Hebrew Tradition" date: None words: 5882 flesch: 50 summary: In the latter case, Mr. Gladstone tells M.

Now what I want to make clear is this: that if the terms water-population, air-population, and land-population are understood in the senses here defined, natural science has nothing to say in favour of the proposition that they succeeded one another in the order given by Mr. Gladstone; but that, on the contrary, all the evidence we possess goes to prove that they did not. keywords: air; gladstone; land; population; science; time; water cache: 2630.txt plain text: 2630.txt item: #7 of 29 id: 2631 author: Huxley, Thomas Henry title: Mr. Gladstone and Genesis Essay #5 from "Science and Hebrew Tradition" date: None words: 9608 flesch: 55 summary: And, therefore, it appears to me desirable that I should preface such observations as I may have to offer upon the cloud of arguments (the relevancy of which to the issue which I had ventured to raise is not always obvious) put forth by Mr. Gladstone in the January number of this review, [1] by an endeavour to make clear to such of our readers as have not had the advantage of a forensic education the present net result of the discussion.

Thus, in view, not, I repeat of the recondite speculations of infidel philosophers, but in the face of the plainest and most commonplace of ascertained physical facts, the story of the Noachian Deluge has no more claim to credit than has that of Deucalion; and whether it was, or was not, suggested by the familiar acquaintance of its originators with the effects of unusually great overflows of the Tigris and Euphrates, it is utterly devoid of historical truth. keywords: account; authority; deluge; earth; fact; flood; footnote; history; man; narrative; science; time; truth; water cache: 2632.txt plain text: 2632.txt item: #9 of 29 id: 2633 author: Huxley, Thomas Henry title: Hasisadra's Adventure Essay #7 from "Science and Hebrew Tradition" date: None words: 11903 flesch: 51 summary: For the fossil remains imbedded in the strata continuously deposited in the Aralo-Caspian area, since the latter end of the miocene epoch, show no sign that, from that time onward, it has ever been covered by sea water.
