Gray was adamant that a genetic connection must exist between all members of a species. He was also strongly opposed to the ideas of hybridization within one generation and special creation in the sense of its not allowing for evolution.

Robert T. Pennock is a philosopher working on the Avida digital organism project at Michigan State University where he has been full professor since 2000. Pennock was a witness in the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial,testifying on behalf of the plaintiffs,and described how intelligent design is an updated form of creationism and not science,pointing out that the arguments were essentially the same as traditional creationist arguments with adjustments to the message to eliminate explicit mention of God and the Bible as well as adopting a postmodern deconstructionist language. Pennock also laid out the philosophical history of methodological and philosophical naturalism as they underpin to science,and explained that if intelligent design were truly embraced it would return Western civilization to a pre-Enlightenment state.
Charles Robert Darwin was an English naturalist,geologist,and biologist,widely known for his contributions to evolutionary biology. His proposition that all species of life have descended from a common ancestor is now generally accepted and considered a fundamental scientific concept. In a joint publication with Alfred Russel Wallace,he introduced his scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process he called natural selection,in which the struggle for existence has a similar effect to the artificial selection involved in selective breeding. Darwin has been described as one of the most influential figures in human history and was honoured by burial in Westminster Abbey.
Hindus have found support for,or ideas foreshadowing evolutionary ideas,in scriptures,such as the mytheme of Dashavatara,the incarnations of Vishnu starting with a fish.
