{{quotebox|The term evolution can have different meanings, such as “change over
 +
time” or even “progress.” However, in modern biology, evolution centers
 +
on two ideas. The first is that all the organisms we see are descended from
 +
a single common ancestor somewhere in the distant past. The second
 +
foundational idea is that an unguided process of natural selection (“survival
 +
of the fittest”) has the power to produce fundamentally new forms of life
 +
through random mutations. This view of evolution is known as “Neo-
 +
Darwinism.” [http://www.getexpelled.com/_downloads/expelled_leadersguide.pdf]}}
