Paul Lemoine (1878 -1940) was President of the Geological Society of France, Director of the Natural History Museum in Paris, and a chief editor of the Encyclopedic Francaise, 1937 edition. In that work, in the article on evolution, he stated: "The theory of evolution is impossible. At base, in spite of appearances, no one any longer believes in it.... Evolution is a kind of dogma which the priests no longer believe, but which they maintain for their people." LeMoine had once been an evolutionist himself, and apparently no French scientist openly challenged the above statement at the time it was published.
