In other words, the fundamental presupposition of consistent evolutionism – that reality possesses the inherent power to create something new – is repudiated. In the same place, he says that the "herbs and trees…then created…, were endued with the power of propagation – in order that their several species might be perpetuated."
That amounts to a negation of a second basic notion of evolutionism: the transformation of primal protoplasm, eventually culminating in man. Suffice the above, to illustrate the relevance of Calvin’s insight into revealed truth.
