Bush on Darwin

On this day, November 24, in 1859, Charles Darwin, a British naturalist, published "On the Origin of Species." It was the paper in which he explained his theory of evolution through the process of natural selection. His theory is the basis of many facets of science, including medicine and the development of vaccines to fight to mutating viruses. One hundred forty-six years later we have a president who believes that there is a legitimate debate between evolution and intelligent design. Just another way that this country has taken steps backward under this administration.
