Science has nothing to do with politics.<BR/><BR/>A consensus of non-scientists is meaningless. The scientists love evolution and that's more important than what uneducated people think.<BR/><BR/>The idea that magical creation should be taught in public schools by biology teachers will never work. The courts won't allow it, and biology teachers would rather quit their jobs than lie to their students about science.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04583284124472613645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8657772.post-86280125498621763202009-02-20T22:44:00.000-06:002009-02-20T22:44:00.000-06:0010 of 10 biologists accept the basic facts of evol...10 of 10 biologists accept the basic facts of evolutionary biology, including our close evolutionary relationship with chimpanzee apes.<BR/><BR/>Why do biologists love evolution? Because they agree with this famous quote: "Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution."<BR/><BR/>Why are biologists 100% certain people share an ancestor with chimps? Because they can see this evolutionary relationship with their own eyes when they compare DNA sequences of these two ape species (human ape and chimpanzee ape). Every day they discover more undeniable evidence for the idea that chimps are our closest living non-human relatives. Biologists are no longer trying to prove evolution because evolution has been accepted as fact for more than a century. They continue to make new discoveries to better understand the history of life, and each new discovery also makes the facts of evolution stronger.<BR/><BR/>The evidence for evolution is so massive, and so powerful, the only people who deny evolution are uneducated people who are terrified of modern biology because it threatens their religious beliefs. Take away the insanity of Christianity, and it would become much easier for people to understand modern science.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04583284124472613645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8657772.post-61391043652116494252009-02-20T22:38:00.000-06:002009-02-20T22:38:00.000-06:00That's a pretty ignorant assumption there Bob.
