Facts Of Evolution: Cassiopeia Project
If you want to know what the scientists know about evolution, then here it is.
An enormous breadth of information, assimilated, compressed, and congealed into an easily understood, visually irresistible presentation.
Facts Of Evolution (made by the Cassiopeia Project) has layer upon layer of evidence that makes common descent and macro-evolution inescapable.
Universal common descent is the concept that every living thing on earth is related to every other living thing on earth… genealogically, genetically related. All modern organisms are descended from one original species.
And while in its simplest form, there is a genetic, linear progression that branches and forms a tree-like pattern, Common Descent is NOT restricted to this linear pattern.
That is different species might recombine and generate hybrids; or genetic material may cross from symbiont to host; or perhaps by man’s own hand, genetic material may be implanted wholesale in another species.
None of this changes the fact that every living thing on earth is related to every other living thing on earth.
Along the way, many will applaud and many will object. But both reactions are inappropriate. Science as a discipline does not cheer for a given outcome of its experiments and investigations.
"The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this." Albert Einstein, "My First Impression of the USA," 1921

Los Angeles Times, 31 May 2012 - This article has only one line about drugs heading north to the U.S. Nearly all of the wealth generated by the drug trade comes from Americans, so in a real sense, we share responsibility for those 50,000 deaths over the last six years. The number is similar to all the American deaths we had in the Vietnam War. We need to esc […]
Los Angeles Times, 31 May 2012 - How many more deaths must we endure before we take the only logical step to end the drug wars once and for all? The solution may not be pretty, but it is practical. Instead of useless attempts at interdiction, we should buy all the drugs available from the cartels in exchange for legalizing the production of them. Cut out the […]
Los Angeles Times, 31 May 2012 - in California, Only 46% Support the Legalization of 'General or Recreational Use by Adults,' a Poll finds. In California, cradle of the marijuana movement, a new poll has found a majority of voters do not support legalization, even as they overwhelmingly back medicinal use for "patients with terminal and debili […]
Los Angeles Times, 31 May 2012 - What is happening in Mexico is not only disastrous for Mexicans but for all of us in the United States and elsewhere. The puny effort to stop the flow of drugs north or guns and money south is a disaster. Violence has already spilled into some border towns and will undoubtedly continue moving north until we awaken to the cata […]
The Chico News & Review, 31 May 2012 - Measure A pushes aside the Fourth and Fifth amendments to the Constitution by mandating that medical-marijuana growers must register and invite law officers to search their property without warrant. Imagine having to voluntarily open your medicine cabinet or home to scrutiny for expired prescription pills or other i […]
The Chico News & Review, 31 May 2012 - Re "Taking the measure of Measure A" (Election cover story, by Melissa Daugherty, May 24): The California Supreme Court has ruled that cities and counties have the right to regulate the amount [of medical marijuana] that can be grown. If you heard about the destruction people testified about at the hearing […]
Sacramento News & Review, 31 May 2012 - After Laying Low, Patients and Dispensary Owners Get Political Sacramento lawmakers got an earful from California medical-cannabis patients last week when some 300 pissed-off voters flooded the Legislature's halls. Some called it a historic day of lobbying to support bills ensuring safe access to the drug.
Los Angeles Times, 30 May 2012 - L.A. Council Panel Also Advances a Counterproposal That Would Spare About 100 Dispensaries. A city Council committee moved forward with a ban on medical marijuana dispensaries Tuesday, approving a recommendation to outlaw storefront pot shops in Los Angeles while allowing small groups of patients and their primary caregivers […]
San Francisco Examiner, 28 May 2012 - Regarding your editorial ("California must clarify its murky medical pot laws," May 23), Mexican drug cartels are no doubt thrilled with the Obama administration's crackdown on voter-approved medical marijuana dispensaries. So much for change and 2008 campaign promises to respect states' rights. So mu […]
