Scientific Evidence of Evolution: Support
I have always wondered why people talked about evolution. In fact, I’ve always wondered what evolution was until I found some evidence of it. Now I am in support for evolution! I hope by the time you finish reading this paper, you’ll understand why I am all for evolution!
I’m sure you’re thinking, what the heck is evolution? Well evolution is the belief that we came from different species of life. A lot of people think that the world came from evolution, in fact almost 45% of Americans believe that God created plants and animals. I’m one of the people that supports evolution.
The whole theory of evolution started when Charles Darwin published …show more content…

Well, not one hundred percent! If I had to give a percentage, it would most likely be 85% because we don’t know if it’s all the way true! I know that evolution didn’t create the whole world, and I also know that god didn’t create the whole world either. So does that answer the question? I believe so. Is there evidence with my decision? Well, of course! That’s what this whole paper is about! I’m not so sure why I believe in evolution because I’ve never really had it pop up into my head before, but once I got to thinking about it, I started to understand it way …show more content…

Well, according to many articles, and online searches, a gut by the name of Charles Darwin started this theory! My favorite article that told me the person that started it, was a Newsela article called “Darwin, Evolution & Faith” (Haught, Newsela Staff, 2017). I also want to know why he came up with the theory. I read through online searches that he started it because he didn’t agree with the bible, but we don’t know whether it is true or not! Anything can happen!
I just wonder if people were upset with the theory, because a lot of people agree with the Bible. I have never been upset about the theory, but it just came through my mind that maybe people were possibly upset with his theory. I honestly don’t mind the theory. I agree with both the bible and the theory.
The final question is, do I support the theory? Yes I do, mainly because it all makes sense with the Bible and the definition of evolution itself. Did you know that not as many people believe in creationism as they believe in evolution? That really got me confused until I realized why! It was because they all didn’t understand how the world worked until they figured out the theory of

In 1925, the Tennessee legislature passed the Butler Act which banned the teaching of the evolution of mankind in public schools. John T Scope, a football coach and, mathematics teacher, was accused of teaching evolution as a substitute biology teacher. In this re-trial, I hold a position as a jury. Several witnesses had supportive arguments and evidences. Harry Shelton from the prosecution side and Henry F Osborn from the defense side presented the most convincing evidences respectively as Harry’s evidence presented was very acrimonious and unpleasing to John T Scopes and Henry F Osborn provided valid and scientific information to us and the judge.

Evolution: The Finches In The Galapagos

249 Words | 1 Pages

The concept of evolution has been a back and forth conversation and will probably be for as long as we know it. I personally support the concept of evolution. I believe that it is what has made everything to be the way that it is now. One example that is often used to show evolution are the finches in the Galapagos. This is a biogeographical example because the finches are different depending on which island or location they were on.

What Was The Significance Of The Scopes Trial

In addition, scientists use the homologous structure as evidence for evolution by using structures with different appearances and functions that derived from the same body parts in a common ancestor. Furthermore, natural selection is evidence for evolution because for example, when Darwin collected birds they were a closely related group of distinct species, but the different beak shapes were related to food gathering. Artificial selection is another piece of evidence for evolution in which operates by favoring individuals with certain phenotypic traits allowing them to reproduce and pass their genes to the next generation. Overall many biologists accepted Darwin’s theories but there are some objections such as how evolution is not demonstrated, no fossil intermediates, the intelligent design argument, evolution violating the second law of thermodynamics, proteins are too improbable, the irreducible complexity argument, and how natural selection does not imply

Penfield's Argument For Creationism

918 Words | 4 Pages

Consequently, any evidence that contradicts or enervates evolution 's argument strengthens the argument for creation. The fossil record, specifically the Cambrian explosion and the Precambrian period preceding it, is clearly supportive of creationism. To recapitulate, the Cambrian explosion is a period of time where many new and complicated organisms spontaneously appeared in the fossil record. Additionally, there is no fossilized evidence of less complex creatures evolving into these organisms as evolution predicts.

Scientific Method Dbq

The theory of evolution first came to be during the 19th century by a man called Darwin. Darwin also published a book related on the theory of evolution called “On the Origin of Species”. At first this theory was mocked, this was because during the 19th century majority of the people in Europe especially England were practicing Christians and they despised the theory because it questioned the power of god and if he created all life on earth or not. However as time progressed this theory started to become more widely accepted as science had improved over the years and scientists could find links between humans and our ancestors that we may have originated from. Obstacles for the theory were hat during the 19th century science was not as advance as it is in the present day and also they didn’t have the technology to prove that humans had links to ancestors before.

Creationism: Mclean V. Arkansas Board Of Education

2235 Words | 9 Pages

Darwin’s theory of evolution belong in Biology classrooms because the idea was created using a series of experiments and research. Because Evolution includes many scientific methods it belongs in classrooms. Darwin’s theory also has many years of research to back it up. All reasons that Creationists use to back up Creationism are contradicting such as the idea that God made the earth appear to be much older than it actually is while Evolution has Scientific evidence and facts to say why the earth is the age it is. Evolution is explained through the process of natural selection, broken down step by step but Creationism simply states that man was made from dust and women were made from Adam’s rib.

Darwin's Doubt Summary

1777 Words | 8 Pages

The book “Darwin’s Doubt” by Stephen C Meyer attempts to negate the negativity surrounding the theory of intelligent design by giving a creationist’s perspective on the different issues surrounding the controversy and provide an argument for the legitimacy of intelligent design from a scientific and rational viewpoint. The book is broken into three different sections part one titled “The Mystery of Missing Fossils”, part two titled “How to build an animal” and part 3 titled “After Darwin. What?” Part one of the book focuses on the lack of validation and evidence hence the name “The Mystery of Missing Fossils” and gives a very brief introduction to the problems of missing fossils, missing phyla, and just general missing validation of the evolutionary
