Evolution and the Taming of the Schools

As a Christian and a student of science, I must admit that the Theory of Evolution or, more properly titled, "The Origin and Development of the Species" is scientifically sound. It does not seek to answer the question of "cause" or the deeper question of "why". This is left for theologians to grapple with. The theory only deals with "how", "what" and "when". For centuries, mankind misinterpreted certain passages of the Bible contending that the Earth was the center of the Universe (or at least the solar system). This has been proven not to be the case.
