The Theory of Evolution claims to have answered the puzzling
questions of how life began, and also how we arrived at this point in time.
Despite this though, it must be noted that it does not explain the beginning
of the universe. Evolutionary theory has also provided the building
blocks for many scientific and medical discoveries. Modern Biology
bases itself on the ideas of evolution and its counterparts of Genetics
and Selection.
Evolution is not accepted by everyone, although it is taught in schools
around the world. Charles Darwin brought the idea of evolution to
the world’s attention in the 19th century, and, since then, it has been
discussed by people everywhere and has shaken up both scientific ideas
and religious beliefs.
Evolution, as we have presented it to you is a theory, not a fact.
Be sure to examine our Creation Stories. for other explanations on how life
on the planet may have formed. |
