A 2010 article in Trends in Genetics, "Causes and evolutionary significance of genetic convergence," addresses the apparently "convergent" appearance of genes or gene sequences and how unguided evolution can explain this. The paper defines convergence as the "independent appearance of the same trai

A. How does the theory of evolution work? Charles Darwin hypothesized his theory of evolution in 1859 in The Origin of Species. Random mutations cause changes, or variation, in a population of organisms. These different organisms then compete to survive and reproduce. Those which

Defenders of evolution commonly make the assertion that biogeography provides unequivocal support for neo-Darwinian theory. For example, the pro-Darwin National Center for Science Education (NCSE) claims that "consistency between biogeographic and evolutionary patterns provides important evidence a

Introduction: The famous philosopher of science Karl Popper wrote that all scientific theories must be falsifiable. In order for a theory to be held tentatively and have an empirical basis, Popper argued that it must be subject to falsification and it must be able to be subjected to meaningful tes

Pictured above is a FAKE cover of the San Diego Union Tribune, which in reality actually did publish an inaccurate article against intelligent design on June 8th, 2005. The article only interviewed scientists who were anti-ID and contained no quotes from pro-ID scientists or organizati
