Natural Selection, a term used by Charles Darwin to suggest that all life began in the same way, a single cell in a warm pool of salt water, over time evolution begins to take place. The adaptation, generation by generation, slowly over millions of years and the alteration of the mix of characteristics which categorizes and typifies a species.

Darwin’s theory of Natural Selection is no doubt first explained as a series of statements and effects. First, each generation of species produces more offspring then will survive to breed the next generation. Second, individual members may be inbred but they will not be identical. Third, differences will give a competitive edge in the struggle to survive and breed…and produce the next generation.

These characteristics, if inherited, will show-up in future generations because they have been naturally selected…and survived.

Senator Lang Elliott believed in this epigram as “the survival of the fittest.” And, he argued that man did not descend from an ape, but had his own course, given to him by God.

Manifested in the same warm pool, man crawled into the sea, taking nourishment as other mammals and slowly over time evolving into family units displacing intelligence, dexterity, courage and love.

The orthodox Christian view measured the history of earth in only thousands of years since the Garden of Adam and Eve. Demanding literal acceptance of the origin of all living things as described in the bible in the Book of Genesis.

Senator Lang Elliott did not question the bible…He only postulated that God did not have the time to create anything that was so imperfect, and man from the beginning was a fallible living thing.

It did not matter to Senator Lang Elliott that religious fundamentalist had decided to make his life a daily living hell, but the senator took umbrage when these pious, self-serving folks, took it upon themselves to murder a member of his crew and steal his prized stallion in return for a King’s ransom. The funds he knew to be utilized by this extreme group to develop propaganda to evangelize and offset the liberal media contaminating young minds and Christian soldiers. They would stop at nothing and had murdered once! Welby Thomas Cox, Jr. (Editor)
