Hey everybody, it looked to me by reading the article that the bill was allowing debate over evolution. since when did debate become a bad thing? Isnt that better than evolution not being allowed to be discussed at all? I agree with voltair that evolution and creationism can be taught together and are not mutually exclusive. Speaking of debate... I believe that one species can indeed evolve within its own species such as a raptor like an eagle can develop better eyesight over a period of time or a tree can develop a resistance to a particular type of insect over time, however i do not believe that one animal can ever turn into another animal. The way i understand evolution is that out of nothing some kind of single celled organisim sprang and then that evolved into a two celled organism then that eventually turned into a fish, the fish turned into a lizard the lizard branched off and turned into a bird and a mammal and then from that we get monkeys and they turned into people. If that is true wouldnt it be possible to take something that already functions such as a wristwatch and send it off to a distant planet that resembles the conditions here on earth and have some kind of mars rover put it in the dirt and over millions of years shouldnt it turn into something? No it will still be a wristwatch in the dirt. The watch is made up of inanimate matter just like the matter that single celled organisms supposedly evolved from but the watch already has moving working parts it just seems very unlikely that life could just come from unorganic matter floating around in the water or soil. Can somebody help me to understand this point of view please? Peace.
