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.

Well at least you talked about joy, unlike previous responders.

I might even vote for a belief in creationism, as the believers are often happy because of their belief. Knowledge and joy are very different things.

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

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