    I am sorry to add to this already very long series of comments, but I felt I had to jump in here. I never imagined so many people really didn't believe in evolution. I am afraid I am assuming you are all American, beasue in Britain I have never met anyone who disbelieves in it, and 'Intelligent Design' is looked upon as a mighty joke believed in by nutters. I am an osteoarchaeologist and have probably seen a great many more of the actual bones than most people, and I am continually amazed by the beauty and brilliance of evolution. For all who talk of missing links, archaeologists are digging up new bones all the time, but we are working in terrible conditions in quite often war-torn countries trying to find things that are millions of years old and incredibly fragile. And yet we have found thousands of bones bearing testament to the gradual evolution of apes into humans - our gradually more upright posture, our increasing brain size, changes in our jaw. I do not see how anyone could throw hundreds of years of our research, revealing one of the worlds great truths, into the bin in favour of the bible, a work of fiction of unknown authorship.

    • I'm from the UK as well... I've also never met anyone who believes in ID. Though apparently I was at a wedding with one once. He *was* American.
