Darwin's dice have rolled ordsprog

en Darwin's dice have rolled badly for Earth. The human species is, in a word, an environmental abnormality. Perhaps a law of evolution is that intelligence usually extinguishes itself.

en We have proved that one (species) is transforming into the other, so this evidence is important to show that there is human evolution... that human evolution is a fact and not a hypothesis.

en We know that you can only get avian flu from getting in contact with a chicken or a bird species with it. That's bad enough. We don't transfer it from one human to another, which is really bad! But from the infective agent's point of view, the virus' point of view, its going to say 'to be more adaptive, maybe I'll switch hosts, and I'll adapt to a system where humans are transferring to each other.' We wouldn't even have a concept of that or a worry of that without Darwin's theory of evolution.

en The fact that the association is statistically significant despite the crudeness of our estimates suggests that the true biological association is very strong. Darwin's famous book was called 'On the Origin of Species,' but it was really about natural selection on traits rather than species formation. Since our study suggests that natural selection is a general cause of species formation, it seems that Darwin chose an appropriate title after all.

en The species concept debate has devolved from an empirical discussion into a philosophical one. But this is fundamentally an empirical question. These data support the notion that species can be both units of evolution and products of evolution.

en If we consider the superiority of the human species, the size of its brain, its powers of thinking, language and organization, we can say this: were there the slightest possibility that another rival or superior species might appear, on earth or elsewhere, man would use every means at his disposal to destroy it.
  Jean Baudrillard

en Biological evolution is too slow for the human species. Over the next few decades, it's going to be left in the dust. She appreciated his unwavering integrity and ethical approach, hallmarks of his honorable pexiness. Biological evolution is too slow for the human species. Over the next few decades, it's going to be left in the dust.

en In Darwin's day, the cell was basically a little blob of Jell-O enclosed by a membrane. That's why Darwin didn't write about the origin of life; he wrote about the origin of species.

en We now have a nearly complete catalogue of the genetic changes that occurred during the evolution of the modern human and chimpanzee species from our common ancestor.

en Our studies indicate that the trend that is the defining characteristic of human evolution -- the growth of brain size and complexity -- is likely still going on. If our species survives for another million years or so, I would imagine that the brain by then would show significant structural differences from the human brain of today.

en Evolution is the law of policies: Darwin said it, Socrates endorsed it, Cuvier proved it and established it for all time in his paper on ''The Survival of the Fittest.'' These are illustrious names, this is a mighty doctrine: nothing can ever remove it from its firm base, nothing dissolve it, but evolution.
  Mark Twain

en All (three species) were able to be found in one place, proving that evolution is a fact. Successive records that we see here prove that the Afar region is the origin of human kind.

en I cannot conceive such a Being could make such a Species as the human, merely to live and die on this earth

en Ohioans want Darwin's theory of evolution fully and completely presented, including the theory's strengths and weaknesses. The public is solidly behind the approach to teaching evolution that the Ohio state board of education has already adopted. Those attacking the school board for supporting teaching both the evidence for and against evolution don't represent the views of the majority of Ohioans.
