The observation of evolutionary processes occurring (as well as the modern evolutionary synthesis explaining that evidence) has been uncontroversial among mainstream biologists since the 1940s.

Since then, most criticisms and denials of evolution have come from religious groups, rather than from the scientific community.

This is where the imaginary part of the theory of evolution comes in.

It says that sex, growth from egg to adult, nurturing babies, aging, ears, tears, eyes, hands, eye-hand coordination, balance, bones, cartilage, spinal columns, spinal cords, muscles, ligaments, tendons, livers, kidneys, thyroid glands, lungs, stomachs, tongues, vocal cords, saliva, skin, fat, blood, lymph, body plans, speech center of the brain, visual center of the brain, hearing center of the brain, language comprehension center of the brain, sensory center of the brain, memory, creative center of the brain, object-naming center of the brain, emotional center of the brain, movement centers of the brain, center of the brain for smelling, swallowing, breathing, heartbeat, hibernation, antennae, bee dancing, insect queens, hair, feathers, seashells, scales, fins, tails, legs, feet, wings, spiderwebs, beaver dams, termite mounds, bird nests, coloration, markings, decision making, immune systems, circulatory systems, digestive systems, endocrine systems, regulatory systems, waste removal systems, genes, gene regulatory networks, proteins, ribosomes that assemble proteins, receptors for proteins on cells, apoptosis, claws, fingernails, hormones, neurotransmitters, circadian clocks, etc.

Several branches of creationism, including creation science, neo-creationism, and intelligent design, argue that the idea of life being directly designed by a god or intelligence is at least as scientific as evolutionary theory, and should therefore be taught in public education.And as one characteristic increases, others diminish.But evolutionists want you to believe that changes continue, merging gradually into new kinds of creatures.In this inspirational message Eric Barger challenges listeners to be witnesses and also implores us to be defenders of the faith "which was once delivered unto the saints." Eric defines somewhat foreign words like "apologetics" and "polemics" and gives ideas on how we might best present the truth of the Gospel and also ascertain what is authentic, historical Christianity.

The suggestions that modern biological contaminants were sufficient to modernize the date are also ridiculous.Eric and Jay discuss the disturbing modern trend inside Christianity that disregards biblical inerrancy in an effort to placate secular science and the secular-atheistic educational culture.More disturbing is the move in Christian education which accepts evolution as fact, choosing to question the Bible rather than Darwin.The types of bird beaks, the colors of moths, leg sizes, etc. Each type and length of beak a finch can have is already in the gene pool and adaptive mechanisms of finches.Creationists have always agreed that there is variation within species.It has been noted that if the shroud were really wrapped over a body there should be a space where the two heads meet.It has also been noted that there is a space where the front and back of the head meet, and that what appears to be the outline of the back of the head is a water stain.Objections to evolution have been raised since evolutionary ideas came to prominence in the 19th century.When Charles Darwin published his 1859 book On the Origin of Species, his theory of evolution (the idea that species arose through descent with modification from a single common ancestor in a process driven by natural selection) initially met opposition from scientists with different theories, but eventually came to receive overwhelming acceptance in the scientific community.
