"I nominate you as God"

LOL! The first thing we must do is burn all the Science books and make sure none of these Science ideas infiltrate the minds of our first graders. Place your hand over your heart and swear by Me to burn those books and to make certain that the United States continues to lead the rest of the world in reading, writing, and arithmetic.

Scientific Organizations

The contemporary theory of biological evolution is one of the most robust products of scientific inquiry.

American Association for the Advancement of Science (2002)
Evolution is supported by abundant evidence from many different fields of scientific investigation.

National Academy of Sciences
As a community, biologists agree that evolution occurred.

American Institute of Biological Sciences
Today, the theory of evolution remains the primary unifying cognitive framework in the biological sciences.

The Texas Academy of Science
Evolution is a basic component of many aspects of anthropology (including physical anthropology, archeology, cultural anthropology, and linguistics) and is a cornerstone of modern science, being central to biology, geology, and astronomy.

American Anthropological Association (2000)
One of the most important advances in our knowledge has been the development of the theory of evolution by natural selection.

Royal Society, United Kingdom
Since its first appearance on Earth, life has taken many forms, all of which continue to evolve, in ways which palaeontology and the modern biological and biochemical sciences are describing and independently confirming with increasing precision.
