ways to promote understanding of evolution?

Question

Study shows that public acceptance and understanding of biological evolution in countries such as Turkey and United States are falling behind most of Western Europe and Japan: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/08/060810-evolution.html

What are some ways scientists, biologists and students of biology can do to educate the public to appreciate the facts of evolution, as opposed to non-scientific ideas such as 'intelligent design' and other creation mythologies?

Answer 1

It needs to be taught effectively in the public schools. Parents should work through their PTAs to insure that the teaching is adequate. There also needs to be taught what a scientific theory is, and why "creationism" and "intelligent design" are not scientific theories.

Answer 2

The most simple design, which was created
by the God / Nature , is atom of hydrogen.
The most complex design, which was created
by the God / Nature , is the Man.
The Man is alive essence.
Animals, bird, fish are alive essences.
And an atom?
And atom is also alive design.
The atom of hydrogen lives 12 minutes.
And someone a long time ago has already said, that if
to give suffices time to atom of hydrogen, he will turn into Man.
Therefore, the one, who creates a general picture of Life,
must consider development of evolution of Life from atom up to the Man.

Once upon a time, in the beginning, there was one "single point " accidentally.
Then it has caught a cold accidentally and has blown up: Big Bang " has taken place.
It was the reason of accidental creation of some hundreds
(thousands) kinds of elementary particles and their girlfriends - antiparticles.
Then stars were formed accidentally.
Then the Planet the Earth was formed accidentally.
Then atom of hydrogen was accidentally formed.
Then complex atom was accidentally formed.
Then was accidentally formed vegetative and fauna.
Then the man was created accidentally.
And this man can accidentally think logically.
But of course, unfortunately, not always.

Answer 3

You could say that evolution is a way for mankind to become stronger in a natural way. Like maybe me upgraded to a second form.

Answer 4

Isn't it possible that there is another scientific explanation?

Do you really think birds can fly because they are afraid of cat's?

Evolution isn't a fact mutations are.
