The fossil record is considered to be the primary foundational evidence that validates evolution. Geologists have thought it seems to paint a picture of long ages and slow gradual processes in which species grew to be more complex over time. This perspective was a foundational viewpoint for Darwin when he developed his evolutionary theory. But is this the picture the fossil record really paints of the past? Are there clues in the fossil record that suggest what happening in the past was very different?

Brand new genetic code needs to be produced for the evolution of new species and types of organisms to occur. This is essential if a bacteria is to become a yeast, a fish to become a salamander or lizard, or for a flying dinosaur to become a bird. How much new and unique genetic code actually needs to be produced to explain the diversity seen in nature? What is the probability of this occurring? What are the implications of distinction trends and processes resulting in a loss of genetic information?

Evolution that arises from the production of new and viable genetic information is an essential underpinning of Darwin's theory. Richard Dawkins in his book "The Greatest Show on Earth: Evidence for Evolution" provides evidence for this kind of evolution occurring. What does this evidence show? What type of evidence does it provide? What are the implications of this on Darwinian evolution?

Evolution is a broad term that is applied to different processes of change and development within an organism. It is critical to understand the different types of evolution that occur, and the significance, implications and evidence for each, in order to clarify evolutionary theory. In this discussion, the three types of evolution are defined and explained with examples, as the question is examined "Can new types of organisms arise by random mutations?

How did life on earth start? Even the simplest cells are extremely complex. With thousands of molecules involved that have to be in just the right conformation, concentration, and sequence, just getting all the necessary parts of a cell together is an impossible feat. But even if you had all of this, the cell wouldn't be alive. What would it take for the cell to start living? What would it take to stay alive? How probable is it for this to happen by chance?

How did life on earth start? When scientists talk about life beginning, they are referring to "simple" life forms or single-celled organisms. But how "simple" are these life forms? We know today that these cells are made of thousands of different parts. What would it take for these molecules to form naturally from elemental atoms? How likely is it for this to occur?

How did life on earth start? Evolutionists assert that life began on earth about 3.7-4.5 billion years ago. This is based on radiometric dating of the fossil record and the rock beds they are found in. While this time frame is questionable, a bigger question is how did life arise at that time? Could it have emerged spontaneously from non-living material? Could it have come to earth from outer space?

What is the evidence for evolution? Darwin's belief about human evolution was influenced by Thomas H. Huxley, who proposed that humans descended from apes. This was evident to Darwin because of the anatomical similarities shared between humans and apes. Darwin also was persuaded that humans descended from fish, based on the notion that the embryonic state of each species indicates the structure of their less developed ancient progenitors. At that time, it was assumed that the embryos of many different species were fish-like. Subsequent scientific research has given evidence that these ideas are highly inconclusive at best, and in the case of the embryos, false.
