Now I used evolution in the title, because I want this to be about a topic counter to some religious beliefs and is a theory. I did not mention natural selection, because it is an idea that has much more concrete proof, and is observable in the short term as well as the long (it's not very fun to debate a topic that has proof leaning almost all to one side)
So what are your views of "Evolution" both in the short term arena (more of a natural selection thing) and more importantly when it comes to the long term ideas about it, and it's extensions to the idea of all current life originating from one source?
