But As The Cerebellum Degrades With Age,

Some Of The Most Wonderful Aspects And Consequences Of Evolution Have Been Discovered Only Recently. This Is In Stark Contrast To Creationism, Which Offers A Static View Of The World, One That Cannot Be Challenged Or Tested With Reason. And Because It Cannot Make Predictions, It Cannot Lead To New Discoveries, New Medicines, Or New Ways To Feed All Of Us.

Evolution Is The Fundamental Idea In All Of Life Science, In All Of Biology. The Key To Our Being Here Now Is Time, 4.54 Billion (earth) Years Of Time. Nuclear Fission Wasn't Discovered Until Long After Charles Darwin And Alfred Russell Wallace Published Their Original Books And Papers, For Example. Our Ability To Measure Atomic Masses Wasn't Developed Until Long After Their Deaths. These Features Of Nature Enabled Us To Reckon The Age Of The Earth And Compare It With Speciation Rates Here.

What Happens To Other Species Also Happens To Us.

As My Old Professor Carl Sagan Said So Often, 'when You’re In Love, You Want To Tell The World.’ And I Base My Beliefs On The Information And The Process That We Call Science. It Fills Me With Joy To Make Discoveries Every Day Of Things I’ve Never Seen Before. It Fills Me With Joy To Know That We Can Pursue These Answers. It Is An Astonishing Thing That We Are — You And I Are One Of The Ways The Universe Knows Itself.

If The Earth Gets Hit By An Asteroid, It's Game Over. It's Control-alt-delete For Civilization.
