To be intelligent in the matter of choosing a spouse, one would need to profit from the experience of others who have already gone this way.

Arthur Ernest Wilder-Smith

Arthur Ernest Wilder-Smith (1915–1995) war ein britischer Chemiker, Pharmakologe und evangelikaler Apologet, der nach internationalen Lehraufträgen viele Jahre in der Schweiz lebte und publizierte. Er vertrat einen kreationistischen Ansatz und argumentierte mit biochemischen sowie informationstheoretischen Modellen gegen die Evolutionstheorie, was in der naturwissenschaftlichen Fachwelt auf breite Ablehnung stieß. Für Bibelleser veranschaulicht sein Werk den Versuch konservativ-evangelikaler Apologetik, naturwissenschaftliche Argumente mit einem wörtlichen Verständnis der biblischen Schöpfungsberichte zu verbinden.
