Evolution, considered as the plan of an infinitely wise [God] and executed under the control of his everywhere-present energies, can never be irreligious, can never exclude design, providence, grace, or miracles. Hence we repeat that what Christians have cause to consider with apprehension is not evolution as a working hypothesis of science dealing with facts but evolution as a philosophical speculation professing to account for the origin, causes, and end of all things.A. A. Hodge, introduction to Theism and Evolution by Joseph S. Van Dyke, 2nd ed. (New York: A. C. Armstrong & Son, 1886), xviii.
