Line 3:
Line 3: − − Evolution is actually simply expressing through observational fact how living organisms have changed over time. Evolution has nothing to do with how life began, how the universe began, or anything other than the changing of organisms through generations.
Revert; this is about evolutionISM, not biological evolution. Besides, evolution has NOT been observed over anything like the time it claims to have been in operation.
The word is used differently in different circles of thought. Generally [[Young Earth Creationism|Young Earth Creationists]] use it as a reference to what they believe is the [[world view]] or [[presupposition]] aspect of the scientific theory of evolution. The term is not necessarily used as a world view unto itself, but is more based off of and is possibly an extension of a variety of other world views including [[Materialism]], [[Naturalism]]<ref>[http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CA/CA601.html CA601: Evolution and Naturalism] - TalkOrigins Archive</ref>, and [[Humanism]] in its broadest sense. Many that hold to the theory of evolution have been known to be [[Atheism|atheists]] as well, but this does not represent the entirety or whole.
