The theory of evolution is all but universally accepted in
the Western world today as an explanation of human origins. Here and there,
however, and apart from Christians who reject evolution on biblical and
theological grounds, there are to be found scientists of various disciplines
who recognize that many aspects of the theory offend the canons of rigorous
science. So great, however, is the appeal of evolution as an explanation of
life and human existence (avoiding as it does the concepts of creation and
Creator) that the scientific objections to evolutionary theory are swept aside
as deserving no attention or even suppressed as offensive to the rational,
educated mind.
