And so it is with the origin of species - the theory of evolution is not merely one of many possible explanations, it is currently the best explanation, the one most in accord with the evidence available to us.

I am sorry but a present there is little evidence to support the mechanism of a natural evolutionary process. Indeed the evolutionist cannot agree on which model to support. A full presentation of the theory would also present the difficulties (some would claim insurmountable) that go against the theory. At best all we have now is speculation.

To a certain extent, the adequacy of the evidence is in the eye of the beholder. There are, however, multiple, independent lines of evidence which corroborate each other to support the theory. The schools don't do much better at teaching the evidence behind evolution than they do at teaching algebra - nevertheless, the inadequacies of the public schools are not indicative of weaknesses in either algebra or evolution ;)

I notice you have not blessed us with any details of your scientific objections to evolution. Please feel free to go into the biochemistry as deeply as you need to make your case.

Darwin Ceentral has folks who can read and respond.
