Well, I don’t have time to write a proper article today, so for your reading pleasure I’d like to point you to a great article posted yesterday on the New Scientist website by Michael Le Page. It covers some misconceptions commonly held by the general public about evolution, and dispells some of the myths that creationists like to use as arguments against it.

For bio scientists this makes an entertaining light read, and is perfect for brushing up your arguments for those after-dinner (or in the pub) debates with your creationist friends. Click here for the article.
