{{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 mutation]]s. This view of evolution is known as “Neo- Darwinism.” <ref>[http://www.getexpelled.com/_downloads/expelled_leadersguide.pdf]</ref>}}
