Evolution Is Our History

»  Comments | Post a Comment

The goal of science is not to prove or disprove the existence of God. Science is not a religious belief. Just as psychology is a discipline that explores the workings of the human brain, science is a discipline that seeks to understand and explain the processes of the physical world.

Evolution explains, in very specific physical terms, how living things change through time (for example, how does bacteria become resistant to antibiotics? How did jungle fowl become domesticated chickens?) Thousands of sophisticated scientific tests have been used to study evolution and the evidence is overwhelming. When preeminent biologists disagree, it's not the existence of evolution they question. They simply disagree about the specifics of how certain adaptations occurred. These questions are an integral part of the scientific process.

Evolution is the scientific history of life on earth and is an essential component of modern biological science and research. Intelligent Design, true or not, is not science. Because Intelligent Design cannot be proved or disproved using scientific methods, it has no place in the study of science. Leave science to its own devices and allow discussion of Intelligent Design within a more appropriate discipline.
