You would not know there is a war going on in evolutionary circles, but there is. This war is not the war that pits evolutionists against creationism and design. This war is being waged among the evolutionists themselves and the battle lines are clearly drawn.

On one side of the battle lines are the traditionalists, those who use morphology, cranial shape, dentition, and skeletal clues to build evolutionary and phylogenic trees. Squarely opposed to them and on the other side of the battlefield are the geneticists that say the best way to understand the evolutionary history of an organism is with genetic studies. These genetic studies involve mitochondrial DNA and other molecular molecules.

Many evolutionary scientists find themselves somewhere in the middle of this evolutionary battle. From an evolutionary point of view they find that both sides of the data provide useful information. What is interesting is that the adamant supporter of the opposing scenario feels that the other side is standing on very weak scientific grounds.

So, do genetic studies support the commonly held belief in human evolution? This paper delves into the the recent history of the creation versus evolution argument and discuss topics such as:
