Nearly 150 years after Darwin published his groundbreaking book The Origin of Species, his theory of evolution remains deeply controversial in this country. In a debate last year, three Republican presidential candidates even admitted that they didn’t “believe in evolution.”

Why do so many Americans question the truth of evolution? Floyd Glidewell believes it’s because most
of us lack the technical training to be able to interpret the complicated science behind this theory.

He has made it his mission to provide non-scientists with easy-to-understand answers to two profound questions people have always wanted to know: where did the universe come from, and how did we get here?

Glidewell excels at offering clear explanations of complex concepts. From the Big Bang to global warming, he can answer these and other hotly-debated questions:

•    Is evolution fact or fiction?

•    Should Intelligent Design be taught in school science or religion classes?

•    How did life on Earth begin and change over time? How did humans evolve?

•    Why are Asians considered more intelligent than other cultures?

•    Is homosexuality in humans genetic?

•    Is global warming real? If so, is human activity causing it?
