I just don't see how believing that life is fixed and non-changing would allow for successful theories and practices in changing life...that would contradict each other just a bit ;-)

Just because someone does nto believe that we evolved from other creatures does nto mean that they cannot see what we are made up of and force and guide changes. I agree with you guys on the evolution vs. creationism thing, but to say you cannot succeed in bio-engineering if you do not believe in evolution is kind of short sighted and a bit arogant.
