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.
But even among those who believe religion trumps science,
there are many who seek to integrate these two ways of
perceiving the universe into a larger, meaningful pattern.
Now elven intrepid explorer of this controversy bring their
own unique perspectives to the debate in tales that range
from a look at life on Earth as an out of control science
project to a story that reveals which species will actually
inherit the planet to the investigation of a scientist
determined to discover the truth about God.
