Do you believe in evolution

[The Sum of Awe]

If you believe in evolution put yes, if not put no, if you don't know put exactly that.

And if you don't mind write your reason why or why not or why it's hard to tell on a comment to this.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

I believe in it because I see the evidence for it. I voted yes.

 

[lunamoth]

Nothing in Biology makes sense except in the light of evolution.

 

[Pegg]

i believe in it as far as it explains the 'development' of an individual species, but i dont believe that evolution correctly explains the appearance of all the different species on earth today. (im referring here to animals that cannot interbreed with each other as in a cow and horse or camel or elephant etc)

@Pegg have you read about the salamander species in the sierra nevada that evolved in such ways that they cannot interbreed with each other?

If not, then check this out.

 

[Madhuri]

I believe in Evolution. Once I started to learn about it properly, there was no way I could continue to deny it.

 

[Zardoz]

Yes, of course. Evolution made us, physically and mentally.

yes im aware of ring species

*nah, i'll think i'll skip out on this debate...its mind numbing lol

 

[LuisDantas]

It is not really a matter of belief, but for poll purposes, yes.

How are you defining evolution, Citizen?

When I use the term I mean change over time. Are you asking weather we believe the Earth's flora and fauna has changed vs remained static, or are you asking about weather we accept the mechanisms of change described by evolution theory?

 

[Nerthus]

Yes I do. I think it is clear to see that it is real and is crazy to say it isn't.

It makes most sense to me and if scientifically proven it is more reliable to me.

 

[michel]

It would be absurd to deny the existance of evolution.........

 

[freethinker44]

I vote yes. Because I go where the truth takes me.

 

[The Neo Nerd]

Hey wait didn't pegg vote no.

Because i'm pretty sure i saw a plus one in the No column this morning.

 

[Breathe]

I most definitely believe in evolution. Always have. Although I must confess, I have played Poe a few times just to rile some people up.

 

[Flankerl]

If i believe in evolution? Its not so much about believing as to accept simple facts.


So yeah of course.

 

[bobhikes]

I believe as the best explaination we have today. I would like it to become more of a science. What I mean is that I would like to see a time when an evolutionist is actually a scientific field. Until then it is just a good theory.

 

[LuisDantas]

I wonder what is missing then...

 

[Dezzie]

I voted "I don't know" because I haven't done much research on it. I do believe that some animals evolved and adapted to different ways of life, but I don't have the knowledge to provide any examples.

 

[tumbleweed41]

I accept the empirical and objective evidence in support of biological evolution and common ancestry.
To do otherwise would be to revel in self inflicted ignorance.
