"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

I have been exploring my blog which is 7 years old and has more than 3,000 posts. I keep finding posts I forgot about and some of them are gems. This is one of many examples: "I love evolution."
