1. Why is the theory of evolution so important in understanding how human beings behave?
It is very important because it is essentially the main and only reason on why we behave the way that we do today. Through millions of years of evolution, our ancestors went through many things and struggled with many things. They had to adjust them selfs to different environments and learn how to survive and know who was bad and who was good. Our ancestors learned to get along with other people and over millions of years, we all saw each other as one being and therefore have become one.
2. Which questions do you think evolutionary theory cannot answer?
One important question is how did life itself originate? This cannot be answered by the evolutionary theory because the theory only explains how our we became us from our ancestors and not necessarily how we were formed or created. Many people debate how there must have been a “creator.” “The anti-revolution movement is lead by the religious right who do not understand genetics and the power of DNA research in proving evolution at play.” That is something that would never be answered by the evolution theory from the religious side. There will always be two sides to everything and no one will ever agree on one thing.
