What Darwin Never Knew?

Program Description
Earth teems with a staggering variety of animals, including 9,000 kinds of birds, 28,000 types of fish, and more than 350,000 species of beetles. What explains this explosion of living creatures—1.4 million different species discovered so far, with perhaps another 50 million to go? The source of life's endless forms was a profound mystery until Charles Darwin brought forth his revolutionary idea of natural selection. But Darwin's radical insights raised as many questions as they answered. What actually drives evolution and turns one species into another? To what degree do different animals rely on the same genetic toolkit? And how did we evolve?Watch Video:
"What Darwin Never Knew" offers answers to riddles that Darwin couldn't explain. Breakthroughs in a brand-new science—nicknamed "evo devo"—are linking the enigmas of evolution to another of nature's great mysteries, the development of the embryo. NOVA takes viewers on a journey from the Galapagos Islands to the Arctic, and from the explosion of animal forms half a billion years ago to the research labs of today. Scientists are finally beginning to crack nature's biggest secrets at the genetic level. The results are confirming the brilliance of Darwin's insights while revealing clues to life's breathtaking diversity in ways the great naturalist could scarcely have imagined.

The fact that no animal has ever been observed changing into another kind of animal should be of concern to those with the silly faith in macro and cosmic evolution. Adaptation is evidence of a Creator, NOT evolution. The evil faith of evolution is jammed down the throats of children all over the world by FORCE and is mostly PAID for by taxpayers. It is the combination of religion and state. Atheists love evolution and communism. We can all see the results in history when atheistic communists run a government. Unfortunately, the final world government will be atheistic communism with the easily predictable results of democide on a global scale. I do not consent!
