I don't 'believe' in anything, but evolution makes perfect sense.

Totally. I am a Christian but there's nothing wrong with believing in evolution. Nothing is supposed to be taken literally in the bible, it is subject to interpretations.
I was just watching Discovery Channel last night and was surprised to find out that in some point in time in a dolphin embryo, it actually develops hindlimb buds but regresses shortly after. This is proof that dolphins were once terrestrial mammals and are actually distant relatives of the hippo. As a Bs-psych major, I find it really interesting to find out more about evolutionary relationships among animals.

Without a doubt. It has a lot of evidence backing it up, especially in comparison with the evidence backing creationism....which is absolutely none. It's amazing how blindly people choose to follow faith; it constricts the mind so much. Religion and science can peacefully coexist, one can be religious and still believe in evolution. People need to open their minds to different possibilities. Evolution is not only something that can be documented over millions of years, but we can witness it in even a matter of days by observing bacteria.
Evolution can be empirically supported. Creation cannot.

Yes, based on the idea of MICRO Evolution (Change within a Species) not Macro Evolution, Inter Specieation, IE: monkey to Man

Up until recently I would not have thought anyone would disagree with the concept of evolution. Given scientific evidence, I think there is a lot we don't know, evolution seems the only viable explanation for the development of life on Earth.

"Believe" is a bad choice of words.
I accept the evidence that shows that life evolved.
It really is not a matter of belief; not any more than believing in gravity.
Science supports evolution. It is not a belief, it is not a religion.

Not only do I believe in evolution of life, but there are non-living things that are evolving. Continental drift is the perfect example of that.

Yes, I believe in evolution. It makes much more sense to me than what is written in the bible.
And by the way, ignore the spelling Nazis. I don't understand why we constantly have a couple of "teachers grading" our spelling and grammar in EVERY questions. Stop making people feel bad!

Religion taught me no.
But with the scientific evidence that's popping up these days, I'm beginning to rethink my beliefs.
