Evolution now confirmed in lab

eviolution

New Scientist reports that evolutionary biologist Richard Lenski of Michigan State University in East Lansing, US, has confirmed evolution occuring in his lab over a 20 year period.

Lenski’s experiment is also yet another poke in the eye for anti-evolutionists, notes Jerry Coyne, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Chicago. “The thing I like most is it says you can get these complex traits evolving by a combination of unlikely events,” he says. “That’s just what creationists say can’t happen.”

Sad thing is that these new scientific discoveries will be ignored by creationists. Cause they do not beliefe in science at all, only their old aeonic book which they believe to be totally true and verbatim (right word?). Xtianity was pretty cool and fresh 2000 years ago but now some of those people, especially evangelicals (most creationists are evangelicals) frighten me due to their fanatism.
