Approaching The Origins Debate with an Open Mind

Produced by "What You Ought to Know", this humorous video provokes us to think objectively and fairly about the way we draw conclusions based on evidence of natural selection and speciation. Are "ID" and "evolution" scientific theories or philosophies to explain our scientific findings?

Perspectives:

• Tiktaalik roseae --a fishy 'missing link'
• Polish tetrapod footprints trample Tiktaalik
• Creationist responses to Tiktaalik roseae: Dispatches from the Culture Wars
• Tiktaalik: Real extinct animal & evidence of evolution. No hoax. Not "discredited"
