Harvard Jumps Into Evolution Debate - Yahoo! News: "Evolution is a fundamental scientific theory that species evolved over millions of years. It has been standard in most public school science texts for decades but recently re-emerged in the spotlight as communities and some states debated whether school children should also be taught about creationism or intelligent design.
The theory of intelligent design says life on earth is too complex to have developed through evolution, implying that a higher power must have had a hand in creation.
Harvard has not been seen as a leader in origins of life research, but the university's vast resources could change that perception."
