The failure to do so may lead a student to conclude that he or she is in fact the result of random, chance processes, and has not been created or designed for any special purpose.  This in turn can have a devastating impact on the student, leading him or her to devalue human life and possibly engage in drug abuse, sexual promiscuity, or violence, or even commit suicide.  It is critical that a scientific theory that has potentially disastrous social consequences be presented objectively.  The cause of truth and the general welfare of society are both promoted if the scientific arguments both for and against the theory of macroevolution are presented.</Description><OtherInformation>The Definition --  As used here, the term "theory of macroevolution" refers to the theory that:  1. The first form of life came into existence through the random interaction of molecules in a "primordial soup"; and  2. All forms of life thereafter have come into existence through the operation of natural selection on randomly-produced genetic mutations.  PLEASE NOTE: NAOS does not advocate “six-day creationism.” Rather, it seeks to show that there are very serious scientific problems with the theory of macroevolution, even assuming the multitudinous forms of life on earth have come into existence over a period of millions of years.</OtherInformation><StrategicPlanCore><Organization><Name>National Association for Objectivity in Science</Name><Acronym>NAOS</Acronym><Identifier>_a2ecad5e-eef8-11e9-b4a9-e4a486babdf6</Identifier><Description>The National Association for Objectivity in Science (NAOS) is a section 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, the primary purpose of which is to promote objectivity in the teaching of the theory of macroevolution. Currently, most high school and university biology textbooks used in the United States do not present any scientific arguments against the theory. NAOS seeks an even-handed, balanced, objective presentation, with the arguments both pro and con presented.</Description><Stakeholder StakeholderTypeType="Person"><Name>Herman B.
