Evolution makes sense out of human behavior and explains why we behave one way rather than another. (Read: Sperm Wars, The Red Queen, and The Selfish Gene).
Creation will only predict things "as they are." It makes no attempt to explain anything.
Please keep in mind: there is joy, then there is full-joy.

Evolution or creationism? I vote for "none of the above".

Does that mean it's time for kittens? I think yes, it does.
