Perhaps this will please him? I'm kinda divided on the whole intelligent design vs. evolution thing. I can recall discussing with my evolution professor the odds involved in the evolution of the eyeball. As I recall it, his basic explanation was "Well, over enough time, with enough organisms, small changes accumulated". You know, monkeys, typewriters, Shakespeare, that sorta thing. Although, if you put the monkeys in front of a computer, the results are less than good. I think those monkeys are trying to tell us something. While it is a little hard for the human mind to comprehend the evolution of say, eyeballs, there is hard scientific evidence out there to see how the process most likely occurred. I believe fully in evolution. However, I don't believe evolution is mutually exclusive to the existence of an underlying intelligence to the universe. Having said that, the whackos who make "evolution is a theory, not a fact" their mantra need to go back to middle school and take basic science over again.
