#4 Why you should stop believing in evolution

In this article, the author Keith Blanchard talks about evolution and how it is not a matter of if you believe it or not. He says that evolution is not something you have to have faith on, it is a truth, something you understand or not. The author states it as something like gravity, you cannot deny it, for it is an undeniable truth that will never change in this world. It is a unchanging observation, you will never let go of a pen and see it not go down. The author briefly explains what is evolution and gives examples of evolution happening in the world like the breeding of strawberries and animals. He says that whoever talks about religion with the concept of evolution just does not understand evolution.
The author , Keith Blanchard, was able to transmit his message and idea quite clearly with this article. Considering the article only, it was a quite convincing article that did help understand the concept and tell us what he wanted to tell. His voice was confident and he did sound smart. However, the facts and information he talked about can be very debatable. He was not clear in what he was talking about and he generalized this subject in a way it can not be generalized. He says evolution , the general-broad idea, was actually something that is only a little tiny piece of the whole concept. What he described in the article is in fact an undeniable truth in the world we live. But that is not evolution entirely, some do not even consider it evolution. The author wrote a article that fulfilled its purpose, however, did not show research and knowledge on what he wrote about. This can be really annoying to lots of people, including me.
