There is a lasting and great debate over evolution both scientific and non-scientific. Some is based upon good scientific research and some is just hearsay or even religious dogma. Is what you believe about evolution based upon facts or is it speculation and assumption?

The purpose of this article is to get people to think beyond normal protocol and to view greater possibilities that still need investigation. Many just listen to what others say or have said and do not formulate their own questions. Below is a list of questions to consider that relate to evolution.

1. What is natural selection?

2. What is a mutation?

3. How is genetic material added in the evolutionary process and where does this new genetic material come from?

4. How much genetic material, DNA, would need to be added for a change from gills to lungs, for example. This would be a fish evolving to an amphibian and one of the needed changes for that process.

5. I read some place that the amount of information storedin the DNA molecule surpasses what a super computer could store. Is this true or just someone's speculation?

6. How is all this complex information stored on the DNA molecule?

7. What "software" is used to unlock or retrieve it and put it to proper use?

8. What causes an organism to "adapt" or change form in order to evolve? Is it a decision the living thing makes (whether animal or plant or virus) oris it just by chance only?

9. Can the thought process of thinking organisms possibly affect the outcome of a next generation to bring about some positive change?

10. If we have, on Earth, so quickly developed an absolutely incredible diversity of life via evolution, then wouldn't we expect the same such processes to be happening throughout the known universe? With the exception of the dark matter, all we can see is made up of the exact same elements as our Earth. And the same natural laws are ubiquitously at work eliciting the same actions and reactions atomically, physically and chemically.

11. What would be the end point of evolution?

12. Where would mankind be if he had another 4 billion years on the Earth?

13. How much time has there been in the past for evolution to have run its course? Is past time limited and if so, how can we really know how much time has already gone by? Currently it is limited by how far we can see with our best telescopes. Certainly more may lie beyond what we can currently see with available technology, but how much?

14. Could time possibly be infinite in the
