Nearly three years ago, on my 37th birthday (going on 29th)--and 37 years after the Jazzercise dance fitness program was founded in 1969--I walked into our local studio here in Flagstaff, Arizona, and bought myself a present: a membership to what would soon become much more than a place to work out.

On September 25th, 2000, I completed a six-month journey from one end of the Appalachian Trail to the other, a 2,200-mile trek from Georgia to Maine otherwise known as a thru-hike. Along the way, I embarked on another type of journey, a creative adventure which led to my first published novel, called I. Joseph Kellerman; although, the story has nothing to do with backpacking or the trail I was on when I wrote the first draft.

Some people in America have a lot of ideas about what Evolution is. Some think it's a religion, an ideology, a moral judgment, or an evil plot to turn them away from God.
Well, it is none of those things and through this lens I hope to show what evolution isn't and explore why so many conservative Christians have such hatred for that particular scientific theory.
You can also weigh in with your own opinion on evolution in the Duel module.
