"Western Watchman" on Haeckel

By Editor

HAECKEL is as much discredited as a scientist as he is as a theologian. Since he admitted over two years ago that he had forged cuts "to fill up gaps in his theory of the evolution of man from the lower animals," claiming that all scientists did it, he has been held up to scorn by the press and savants of Germany. We have often asked the question, When did a university professor ever make a scientific discovery? They are all plodders par excellence.
