Abstract
The fact that everyone has a set of "accepted assumptions" is emphasized and its relevance to science dealing with origins is explored. It is suggested that the failure to recognize incompatible sets of "accepted assumptions" results in much futile discussion of purported "evidence" for a particular view. Ample evidence is cited showing that confirmed evolutionists are so on philosophical grounds. No conceivable theoretical dificulties in biology will convince them otherwise! An implicit plea is made that everyone repudiate the thought that his personal view is the only possible rational one! To paraphrase Sydney Smith, the primary object of this paper is not to tell men things they don’t know, but to remind them of what they are constantly forgetting!
