We…humans have existed for only a tiny fraction of the Earth’s history. Dinosaurs walked Earth between 230 and 65 million years ago. The oldest known humanlike fossil has been dated at 6 million years old.Evolution explains the way all living things evolved over billions of years from a single common ancestor.

There’s a story about carving an elephant out of a block of wood. The craftsman was asked how he did it. He simply said, ‘I took a block of wood and took away everything in it that was not elephant’.
