Why is evolution opposed so viciously?
I’d like to invite you you to take some time and watch this video to answer all of your questions. It’s a special lecture given by Ken Miller, who’s a biology professor from Brown University. He talks about evolution (specifically the bogus “intelligent design” debate) and touches majorly on the opposition to evolution. This video is 100% accessible to anyone wanting to find some stuff out about evolution. It’s actually pretty funny and entertaining in parts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVRsWAjvQ The reason for the opposition to it is simple: religious fanaticism. There is literally no controversy about evolution that does not stem from someone’s religious beliefs. The majority of people who oppose it have frequently been lied to or misinformed about what evolution says and is all about. Please, pleasepleaseplease watch that video and you’ll find out everything you’ve been wondering.
