There is NO CONTROVERSY over evolution, except among a ridiculously small minority. The largest sects of Christianity accept it. Some evangelicals do not - why should they be able to create a controversy where there is none?
Once again -
can anyone provide any scientific evidence against human evolution?

You'd be surprised what you will find. Like how the media can inflate things.

I have. The original article has not blown anything out of proportion - the conversation has drifted from there, and your comment, ironically, denotes a lack of r->c->p.
You are correct in that the changes are moderate - however, I am not comfortable with claiming there are other 'viable' options past human evolution. What exactly denotes 'viable'? What are these options? Is there any support for them?
Isn't this just euphemistic language to support so-called 'intelligent design' or Creationist theories, which are primarily Christian?
