A Student Guide To Man's Selection: Charles Darwin's Theory Of Creation, Evolution, And Intelligent Design [Paperback]

A Student Guide to Man's Selection: Charles Darwin's Theory of Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design provides a scientific inquiry into two competing theories regarding the creation and evolution of life - the Case for Chance and the Case for Design. Scientists with starkly different opinions on the subject, from Dr. Wernher von Braun to Dr. Richard Dawkins, have stated that both theories are a matter for scientific study. However, most public school science curriculum does not consider the Case for Design out of the misguided belief that it is incompatable with secularism. Instead, some in the scientific community insist that theories of creation and evolution must align with the Case for Chance, and have advanced neo-Darwinism as the basis for the Modern Evolution Science Synthesis. However, this directly contradicts what Charles Darwin observed and documented in his trilogy of publications, The Origin of Species, The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication, and The Descent of Man.

Charles Darwin observed that several forms of Variation were the catalyst for creation. He also observed that multiple types of Selection preserved the most favorable variations for adaptation by the organism, preserving traits that could be inherited by its offspring and passed along to future generations. Complex combinations of variation and selection, governed by laws impressed on matter by the Creator, result in the creation and evolution of life. Darwin's findings were based on rigourous scientific observation and therefore can serve as the basis for inquiry into this phenomenal and mainly unknown area of science. Darwin bridged the case for chance with the case for design through his analogy of an architect who masterfully creates noble and purposeful edifices from seemingly meaningless uncut stones produced by natural laws unrelated to the edifice crelÕ
