Concerning the debate going on about intelligent design and evolution: is it possible that the final answer about which of these two seemingly opposite ideas is correct could simply be yes?
With one position firmly held by the believers and the other just as fearlessly defended by the non-believers, if you happen to be in a position somewhere near the middle, it does not look all that complex. From this position, you wonder why either-or has to be the answer.
If you believe that some higher being created the universe by intelligent design, what more elegant and intelligent design could there have been than a self-regulating system that continually checks its own errors and makes its own corrections in mid-stream as an integral part of the process.
This all seems quite logical to me although it probably won’t satisfy the believers because they are afraid to see any truth other than the one they have been told to believe in. Inversely it certainly won’t satisfy the non-believers because it leaves them stuck with a god that they are so obviously terrified of.
To sum up this view from the center, it might be most easily be explained by saying perhaps the designer was intelligent. Problem is, the designer was likely so intelligent that those seeking to prove that it is intelligently designed may be incapable of ever understand it well enough to see it for the elegant self regulating design that it has always been.
The nonbelievers will be similarly handicapped due to the internal terror the have about the idea that there may be a God. Neither side being able to leave their entrenched position for fear they may have to admit they were wrong. While the rest of us stand by trying to figure out what all the fuss is about. Personally I don’t think anyone is wrong, I just feel both sides are about half right.
Love and blessings

There are 2 concepts of evolution:
- Darwins Theory: Saying that man came from monkey is ridiculous! where is the missing link? How come the amoeba (single-celled) lifeform is so complex on its own.
- The vedic scriptures of the eastern world clearly explains the 2nd concept. It says that during creation there were a total of 8,400,000 species of life forms created by the Lord (which still exists today).
The 2nd and valid concept is that: The soul EVOLVES from one body to another at the time of death. And of all the life forms, the human form is the best vehicle to understand who God is and revive our relationship with Him.
Darwins theory is not substantial. The evolution of the soul is so much more precise and logical. Thats because we ARE NOT this Body, but the Spirit Soul.

I see some people here trying to suggest that there is an ongoing debate between creationists and biologists. The fact is that science has established the fact of evolution and has no interest in creationist rhetoric. Creationists are impotent when it comes to trying to undermine evolution- they and their beliefs can be ignored and dismissed out of hand as irrelevant.

IF humans evolved then the evolution was random. Why if evolution is random did we all come out the SAME? If one painting is the same as another painting would you not agree they were created by the same artist?
How then was man created ALL the same if evolution is random?

Please take a minute and define the question. Evolution or Adaptation.
The last that I knew, Evolution is changing of one species into a new species (Amoeba to Man), while adaptation it changing characteristic of a species to better survive in it's environment (sea and land iguana).
People tend to use these 2 interchangeably and it tends to muddy the whole 'evolution/creationism' debate.
Your question and reasoning tend to lean towards Adaptation and not really Evolution.

That's as elegant an explaination as I've ever seen. The people who don't believe in evolution will never recognize the evidence. They believe in dogma. If the church says the world is flat then it is flat.
Those who attack evolution will go after anthropology, geology and astronomy as well. They attack what the do not want to understand.

evolution has to problems that destroy the theory:
1. evolution has one law survival of the fittest, some answer me this, according to evolution why is murder, rape, and theft view poorly in society. If you can do these things and live very well why can't we?
2. Emotions can't evolve either. you can't tell me that a person 3000 years ago couldn't love as I love today. emotions contradict the all laws under evolution anyway. please explain these scientifically, I know you can not because college professors have not been able to either. the theory scientifically can't stand based on your rules, why do you keep it then. this makes no sense

It is very sad how little people know about what evolution actually means and how it works. Evolution explains everything we know about biology. It is absolutely central.

I didn't,but maybe God made humans by using evolution, like they said humans came from mud and magical breath, maybe mud, because of land and water, then the magical breath would be oxygen.. then the crafting thing would be evolution.....
