Even though evolution has long been accepted as scientific fact, there are still many who believe everything that exits in our modern-day world is part of a divine plan. And despite the proof offered by fossils on our own world, and the discovery of other inhabitable planets scattered across the galaxy, many people still believe that the Bible should be taken literally.
