Read the excerpt from President Reagan’s Address at Moscow State University.Even as we explore the most advanced reaches of science, we're returning to the age-old wisdom of our culture, a wisdom contained in the book of Genesis in the Bible . . .

The mention of advanced science sets up a contrast; it is not evidence that proves his opinion.
