More From Erwin Schrodinger

In man's life, the absence of an essential component usually leads to the adoption of a substitute. the substitute is usually embraced with vehemence and extremism, for we have to convince ourselves that what we took as second choice is the best there ever was. thus blind faith is to a considerable extent a substitute for the lost faith in ourselves; insatiable desire a substitute for hope; accumulation a substitute for growth; fervent hustling a substitute for purposeful action; and pride a substitute for an unattainable self-respect.

In the meantime, the educated public continues to believe that darwin has provided all the relevant answers by the magic formula of random mutations plus natural selection -quite unaware of the fact that random mutations turned out to be irrelevant and natural selection tautology.

These were people so hungry for love that they were accepting substitutes. there were embracing material things and expecting a sort of hug back. but it never works. you can't substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship. money is no substitute for tenderness, and power is not a substitute for tenderness. i can tell you as i'm sitting here dying, when you most need it, neither money nor power will give you the feeling you're looking for, no matter how much of them you have.

A chinese paleontologist lectures around the world saying that recent fossil finds in his country are inconsistent with the darwinian theory of evolution. his reason: the major animal groups appear abruptly in the rocks over a relatively short time, rather than evolving gradually from a common ancestor as darwin's theory predicts. when this conclusion upsets american scientists, he wryly comments: "in china we can criticize darwin but not the government. in america you can criticize the government but not darwin."

The church demonstrated the falsity and folly of darwin's theories by showing that they contradicted the mosaic account of creation, and now that the theories of darwin having been fairly established, the church says that the mosaic account is true because it is in harmony with darwin. now, if it should turn out that darwin was mistaken, what then?

In agriculture, people have taken wild plants that can't be eaten by people - and turned them into wonderful food sources. and that's because genomes can change, and people working with plants have picked mutations. mutations are nothing more than genetic changes.

Money drives the world, but when everything falls apart to leave the underpinnings of our life bare to the scrutiny of critics and thieves, the only thing remaining, the only thing that can't be taken away, is the love you hold for the people you care about.
