Evolution does NOT address the creation of life. That theory is called abiogenesis.Also known as "chemical evolution" so he gets a pass.
What a poorly written article.
Here I would agree. But it was well enough written to raise the ire of the Neo Darwinist Brigade to the point where they refer to President Bush in the same terms as the followers of Michael Moore.

Ahh, but the preceding sentence in the article, "The theory of evolution, first articulated by British naturalist Charles Darwin in 1859, is based on the idea that life organisms developed over time through random mutations and factors in nature that favored certain traits that helped species survive", makes it clear that they are referring the theory of evolution in terms of natural selection, not chemical evolution, stellar evolution, or evolutionary algorithms.
The article is misleading and attempts to make scientists appear less credible.
