Evolution vs Gravity



The contestants in the 2011 beauty pageant "Miss USA" were asked if they support evolution education in U.S. public schools.


The process of evolution is better understood than the theory of gravity, but nobody questions if gravity should be taught in science classes. As an entertaining experiment, the word "evolution" has been replaced by the word "gravity" in the Miss USA 2011 interview.

  1. Gravity isn't a theory. It is a law. A theory and a law are two separate things. Laws are universal. Theories are more specific in their application but unlike laws, they explain the reason for the occurrences they describe.
