An up and coming contender to the theory of evolution is an idea called "Intelligent Design". This hypothesis states that some kind of intelligence created all life, as it is too complex to have "just happened". Although many of the proponents of this theory happen to be Christian Fundamentalists it is hard to simply brand the theory as Religeous Idiocy Parading as Science.

Among the many arguments for ID is the following thought experiment:

Imagine a tornado blowing through a scrap yard. It is completely infeasable for us to expect that the random blowing about of mechanical items would ever form something as complex as a Boeing 747. However, we are expected to believe that random mutations over time formed human beings who are much more complicated than a 747.

Admittedly this is not so much an argument for Intelligent Design as it is a fallacious and misleading argument against evolution but the point still stands. Despite not having the ability to fly it is hard to argue against the claim that human beings are more complicated than a plane.

As we have learned, evolution clearly states that we randomly evolved from monkeys and, before that, rocks.

Although some scientists do dismiss ID out of hand, stating that is not science because it "cannot be tested by experiment, does not generate any predictions, and proposes no new hypotheses of their own." but that's just being picky - You could make the same argument about babies (except for the bit about experimenting on them) but those same scientists would not dare suggest that we should kill every child in the world. The hypocrisy of the status quo rears again.
