    Harmonizing with his “no miracles” principle, Darwin firmly asserts that the evolution of any species develops from a gradual process, which will outlast the lifetime of humans capable of its observation. When tracing a species’ self-improvement “we ought to look exclusively to its lineal ancestors… in order to see what gradations are possible” (Darwin 183). In fact, Darwin uses morally loaded language to first argue that the evolution of an animal’s eye, “with all its inmitable contrivances”…

    Natural Selection Theory

    By gaining an understanding and examining evidence associated with each of these three theories it becomes clear that the most logical and truthful of the three is the theory of Chemical Evolution. Before delving directly into the first theory, one must understand Darwin’s theory of natural selection because it is a theory that the majority of scientists take to be true. The scientific community agrees on natural selection because the evidence…

    As it is unknown to how the tardigrade was able to evolve to that extent, a plausible answer is contingency, a theory that evolution sometimes occurs by chance. Lastly, the tardigrade parallels the idea of the “Posthuman” as its ability to survive is far greater than the human’s ability to survive, making the tardigrade a model for the advancement of human physical evolution. Just because humans cannot communicate…

    Dupré's Evolution Theory

    the evolution theory. Dupré claims that the evolution theory is too simplistic; thus this theory is restricted in terms of applicability, and alone is not sufficient in explaining human behaviours (2002). I conclude by arguing that although it may be true that humans behaviours are complex, I do not think that the evolution theory is as weak as Dupré portrays it to be. Most changes in behaviour can be explained by evolution partly…

    Creationism and Evolution one is allowed to be taught in our school the other is banned in all facets of its matter. Evolution is a science subject that teaches our kids a species can develop from a single cell organism. This is an inveigle way of teaching without having proper evidence of this theory, so we are teaching our kids something that is no more than a fairy tale. We don 't teach about God or creationism in public schools because we lack physical evidence of his existence and we don…

    shocked to find out that the class taught evolution as a major part of the curriculum. Instead of teaching about musical notations, types of music, and what makes for good music, she was taught about evolution. It is simply an unquestioned truth that people often cannot even see and has invaded almost every area of our thinking. It has even invaded theology. Many people today see theistic evolution as the only viable option in light of the "fact" of evolution. It appears to me that the "puppet…

    any specific religion (“Creationism”, 2015). This is because many followers of evolution protest that creationism is merely a religion rather than a scientific explanation (Wiker, 2005). Evolutionists claim that their theory is entirely based on scientific fact so therefore; their position must be more…

The red beetle population showed a drastic extinction…

    the tables are indeed turned, to make us think that it is not such a good thing. In Mark Watney’s case, however, we are forced to rethink this assertion. Because of the ingenuity and complexity of human thinking, which we gained as a result of evolution, we are often led to rely on these aspects to survive. If not for Watney’s quick-thinking, he would have died on the foreign planet of Mars. Due to this evidence, the question of whether or not the survival of the fittest is a fair rule, proves…

    Evolution vs Religion For hundreds of years, religion and science have not gotten along well. Each, having their own view, they try to convince or say that the others view is wrong and that should not be taught. Hundreds of years ago, famous scientists have been tried by the church due to their beliefs, only because they do not agree with the church and go against the bible. Now, science is something that many believe in because there is prof of where the scientists ideas come from but even so,…
