The syllabus for Standard Grades does not mention the word ‘evolution’. Pupils simply have to be aware that selection favours those individuals that leave most surviving offspring. There is a hint that all living organisms have a common ancestor in the aims of the ‘Investigating cells’ topic: The aim of this topic is to stress the unity of life by developing a knowledge and understanding of those structures and processes shared by all living organisms The implication here is that biological features shared by living organisms are evidence that they all evolved from a common ancestor. This argument from homology needs to be critically examined because it is by no means as simple as it sounds here. See the essay on homology on this website. |

It seems that the evolutionists are convinced that they have found the last word on life, some of us however, doubt that they have the full answer, and so are still searching. Dr Milton Wainwright, Dept. of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, University of Sheffield |
