...but in any event, in a nutshell, here is how you have distorted and misquoted.
1. Fred Hoyle believes in evolution. What he isn't convinced of is abiogenesis *on this planet*--something which has nothing to do with Darwinian selection occuring after an initial event regardless of where it happens. For some of his comments affirming his knowledge of evolution see this interview with him.
2. A person can't be an atheist and a believer in God as you assert Hoyle is.
3. Francis Crick is one of the people I previously referenced as one of the Nobel Laureates. He signed the statement that reads in part, "The evolutionary history of organisms has been as extensively tested and as thoroughly corroborated as any biological concept."
4. Paul LeMoine never said the words you claim he did.
Now will you bother to answer my previous questions?
