Big idea big exhibition

Last weekend some friends and I went to the Natural History Museum to see the Darwin exhibition. Personally, I believe in the Creator of the Bible, but have no problems accepting macro-evolution in animals to a certain extent. So I was interested in evidence for abiogenesis, speciation and how persuasive the monkey-to-human link was. Unfortunately the exhibit left me pretty unsatisfied! But hey, it was a fun day out.

Unsurprisingly, the internet is proving to be a quite a good source of information. Working out how reliable sources are seems to be the hard part though... Here's a controversial (secular) website called Science against Evolution.
