The usual arguments around the topic of evolution revolve on the science versus religion war, did we evolve or were we created? That is really an unsatisfactory debate because unless the ancient texts of many religions are interpreted literally then the Big Bang could have been the result of an act of creation while evolution addresses the diversity of life, not its origin. When we consider the question of whether modern biology has made evolution obsolete however, that is fertile ground for those who like to speculate.
Read a considered article on the question of evolution: are the current generation of humans the end of evolution, will science now determine what we become in the future, or have the scientists got it horribly wrong in trying to control nature and will future generations pay an enormous price for their hubris.
Has Human Evolution Stopped
The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant. - Maximilien Robespierre.
