A recent article on livescience.com says that the U.S. ranks next to last in understanding genetics and accepting Evolution. Why is that? It's very easy to understand. First you have to look at "Artifical" selection, which is something humans do.
Just look around you right now at dogs, cats, cows and even wheat and corn. There are hundreds of different variety of these organisms. We encouraged one type and discouraged another. In just a few thousands years, look at the variety of life.
Now if such a change happened in that short of time, just imagine what happens when "Natural" selection, a process that takes BILLIONS of years. Look around at all of the beauty of the natural world. Evolution is right in front of you. It's up to you to accept it or not.
Most modern religions will not allow you to accept this. So which is wrong, Science or religion? If we claim to be the most intelligent species on the planet, we must accept the discoveries made by Science.
