True science deals with facts. Evolution, by contrast, is a conjecture of people who want to explain without God what they cannot in fact explain.

— Detschko Svileno (b. 1941), Mediziner, Theologe und christlicher Apologet

Detschko Svileno

Detschko Svilenov (* 1941) ist ein bulgarischer Mediziner, Theologe und evangelikaler Apologet, der in Sofia sowie an deutschen Forschungseinrichtungen tätig war. Er vertritt eine dezidiert kreationistische Schöpfungslehre und setzt sich in Veröffentlichungen für die Vereinbarkeit konservativer Bibelauslegung mit naturwissenschaftlich-medizinischen Fragestellungen ein. Für Bibelleser veranschaulicht sein Werk den Versuch, theologische und ethische Positionen naturwissenschaftlich zu begründen, wobei seine Ablehnung der Evolutionstheorie in der Wissenschaft als pseudowissenschaftlich kritisiert wird.

C.S. Lewis

Do you see the moon standing there? It's only half visible, and yet it's round and lovely! So it is with many things that we lightly laugh about, because our eyes cannot see them.
Matthias Claudius

The grip of our faith by which we hold on to the Lord may loosen. But the One in whom we believe holds us with his grip.
Helmut Thielicke

A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.
C.S. Lewis

Now that I am a Christian I do not have moods in which the whole thing looks very improbable: but when I was an atheist I had moods in which Christianity looked terribly probable.
C.S. Lewis

Faith comes and goes. It rises and falls like the tides of an invisible ocean. If it is presumptuous to think that faith will stay with you forever, it is just as presumptuous to think that unbelief will.
Flannery O'Connor

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.
William Shakespeare
