Divergent evolution is a pattern in which (according to mainstream evolutionary thought) two characters gradually become increasingly different. Divergent evolution occurs (it is theorized) when a character is subject to different selective pressures or sufficient [[genetic drift]]. According to this theory, two groups develop into distinct species due to differences in the demands driven by the environmental circumstances.

Divergent evolution occurs (it is theorized) when a character is subject to different selective pressures or sufficient [[genetic drift]].
Thus the two characters gradually become increasingly different.
Nearly half of Americans reject the common ancestry of life predicted by the [[theory of evolution]] (in which divergant evolution is thought to play a role), on Biblical grounds. Other Americans would be willing to believe the theory, if any proof were shown to them{fact}.
