Synopsis

Why is there so much anti-evolution sentiment at the start of the Third Millennium? Why does the debate that began in 1859, when Charles Darwin established the study of evolution, still rage in 2000? In this text, Niles Eldredge presents an examination of the creation-evolution confrontation. He reveals the creationists basic argument and their strategies for advancing it, and counters charges that the study of evolution cannot be scientific and that is leads to the demise of the family, religion and traditional values.
