Were could I find books or articles in the web giving me a scientifical ground in evolution to build upon , and maybe Tranquility base or someone could show me books or articles arguing for intelligent design or creationism, ill read them with all my heart and perhaps you would answer my questions as time passes.

Delshad, first off kudos for the excellant first post on this thread. Darwins Ghost by Steve Jones is a very good book in that it recapitulates Darwins Origin of Species in a much more modern (and IMO readable, I do not like late 1800's british lit due to the writing style) style, complete with newer aspects concerning molecular biology. Books by Ernst Mayr (one is "What Evolution Is") are also very good.From the creationist side, I would stay away from anything from the ICR due to their generally poor scientific content. One decent book from the Intelligent Design point of view is Darwins Black Box by Michael Behe. The book is well written and is targeted towards beginners in biology/biochemistry. Of course, I think that Dr. Behe is in error and have demonstrated several of the problems in his thesis on this board and in others. He does an excellant job of explaination to the layman though, and does pose a few interesting questions concerning the evolution of pathway families that I have discussed with TB on this board. An interesting book is "Intelligent Design Creationism and Its Critics: Philosophical, Theological, and Scientific Perspectives". It contains writtings from each side of the debate. I have just started the book but will not be able to read it for a while due to other obligations.Anyway, good luck .------------------
