Title: Is Evolution Scientific?
Description: The theory of evolution is all but universally accepted in the Western world today as an explanation of human origins. Here and there, however, and apart from Christians who reject evolution on biblical and theological grounds, there are to be found scientists of various disciplines who recognize that many aspects of the theory offend the canons of rigorous science. So great, however, is the appeal of evolution as an explanation of life and human existence (avoiding as it does the concepts of creation and Creator) that the scientific objections to evolutionary theory are swept aside as deserving no attention or even suppressed as offensive to the rational, educated mind. Yet the spirit in which this is done, ironically, is not the careful spirit of scientific enquiry but the mindless arrogance of "evolution rules, OK?" - p. 1.
