The Origin of the Human Species According to the Human Species

About the Book

BEYOND “CREATION VS. EVOLUTION” AND “INTELLIGENT DESIGN VS. EVOLUTION”

We persons do not agree about our origin. According to some of us the origin of us persons (the human species) is an intelligent origin (hypothesis 1) and according to some of us the origin of us persons (the human species) is a non-intelligent origin (hypothesis 2).

Who/what our origin is basically like as ontologically an intelligent origin or a non-intelligent origin is not relative to and does not vary with us persons. And we disagreeing persons are not all equally correct.

Only evidence determines which hypothesis is retained as scientifically true and which hypothesis is excluded as scientifically not true – and absolutely nothing else. Is there evidence? Yes, indeed. However, diverse labels for the hypotheses like “creation vs. evolution” or recently “intelligent design vs. evolution,” the religious or non-religious beliefs of persons, phrases like “religion vs. science” or “church vs. state," and various names for an intelligent origin like YAHWEH = THEOS = DEUS = ALLAH = GOTT = GOD = INTELLIGENT DESIGNER are not evidence. They are not evidence for or against either hypothesis, even though they are misused as if evidence by some biologists, politicians, judges and school board members to initially, prematurely and anti-scientifically exclude hypothesis 1 about an intelligent origin prior to the search for evidence -- i.e. with no evidence.

In the meantime, real science about our origin demands: A. the initial recognition of both hypothesis 1 about an intelligent origin and hypothesis 2 about a non-intelligent origin; B. the open search for evidence; C. no interference by anyone or anything with the scientific process of A and B.
