I reccomend [sic] Darwin's newest book for your brother in law. It lays out the evidence for evolution. Also fundies seem to think that evolution = abiogenesis.I would caution on that "only" bit; many times scientists have said "this is the only way" to be proved wrong later by other scientists. Hardly anyone espouses the spontaneous generation theory of biology anymore.
One might rephrase that to be: Evolution is the best logical explanation we have devised at present for the fossil record.
That -only logical explanation- bit might be interpreted as religion a thousand or fifty years from now.
And by the way, be thou welcome amongst the precepts of order and disorder around here. (Paraphrasing the Principia Discordia, Book of Uterus)
I am not a sock puppet. This is a recording
"Be ye not lost amongst Precept of Order." - Book of Uterus, 1:5, "Principia Discordia, or How I Found Goddess and What I Did to Her When I Found Her."
