Evolution Blog

In general I feel that people become somewhat one track minded with this question. A lot of times when people think of "evolving" they tend to see it as more of an immediate effect rather than the long period of time it actually takes. Also a lot of times people jump right to the whole "humans coming from monkeys" aspect of evolution. They look at a monkey and think evolution is humans coming directly from monkeys and simply refuse to believe all the other things that evolution really means. With that I've always felt that a better way to ask that question is "Do you believe that living things, over a long period of time, adapt to their surroundings to survive which can cause a physical change within a species?"
