This explains why Darwinists have always insisted that evolutionary progress must be assumed to have always been very gradual, despite the evidence that it was not. Many people are not impressed by my ...

The Scopes “monkey trial” garnered international attention, and the battle that was fought continues in some form in other states today Dan Falk - Science Correspondent Teacher John T. Scopes (second ...

Ironically, one great unsolved problem in Darwin's master work, On the Origin of Species, was just that: How and why do species originate? Darwin and his later followers were faced with a seeming ...

ANN ARBOR—For a long time, evolutionary biologists have thought that the genetic mutations that drive the evolution of genes and proteins are largely neutral: they're neither good nor bad, but just ...
