Most people who do so, do so for personal and ideological reasons, such as religious beliefs.
Answer 1There appear to be three different offers currently on the table from different people or groups.1. Young-earth creationist Kent Hovind has an offer of $250,000 (allegedly for around 12 years) for proof of evolution.2. Creationist Adnan Oktar of Turkey, reported on one site as a 'rival of Richard Dawkins' has an offer of 10 trillion lira $7.5 million dollars for fossil evidence of evolution.3. An Old-earth Creationist site has an offer of $1,000,000 for proof of Abiogenesis (life from non-life).Relevant conditions are attached to all of these.Answer 2Although the first answer to this question is correct in that these groups do appear to offer rewards for proof of evolution or abiogenesis, there is no actual intent there to give the reward to anyone who offers actual evidence for the mentioned proofs. The conditions attached to these rewards, and the definitions of 'proof' and 'evidence' applied by those who offer them, and even the interpretation of the relevant explanatory models themselves, are carefully chosen so that no evidence or proof that complies with scientific tenets can ever be accepted and the rewards can never be awarded.
Evidence for evolution includes the fossil record, comparative anatomy, molecular biology, and observed instances of natural selection. These different lines of evidence all support the concept of biological evolution occurring over time.
No. Most people do - the cast majority of people accept the principle he expounded in On the Origin of Species. A small minority of people, mainly fundamentalist Christians, deny the theory of evolution and thus are opposed to Darwin.
Some people believe in it while others do not. Belief itself is irrelevant. The theory could be true or false regardless of how many people believe or disbelieve. I personally accept it as accurate due to the evidence that the fossil record and DNA gives us but many Christians (and those of other religious beliefs) believe that to say that Evolution is real is to deny that God created everything. There are those who believe that God created evolution. Evolution is a theory but in science terms a theory is a widely accepted (by scientists) explanation supported by data. The evidence evolution occurs runs rampant through the genetic code of modern species and through the fossil record. Compare the earliest amphibians to sarcopterygian lungfish. Considered legged cetaceans. Examine the human chromosome that is a fused pair of "monkey: chromosomes. Contemplate the GULO gene. Why should we share a defective gene for the synthesis of ascorbic acid with old world monkeys? These are all strong indicators evolution has occurred, though the theory of evolution is the explanation that ties these facts into a coherent picture.
This depends on who you are asking. Some people will say no (because they will not have any children of their own). These people usually do not like homosexuals. Some people will say yes (they will not pass on their genes to the next generation).
Because nothing is proof of evolution.
Evolution. Just more proof that evolution is just playing around. It serves no purpose.

There is no proof that there was not a conspiracy to kill Kennedy. In fact, there is evidence, though some will deny it, that he was not shot by Oswald.
Everyone has their own belief on how the world was started. People are all entitled to their beliefs, especially when there is no scientific proof to make them think otherwise.
yes u can tell by looking at him
Discovering proof of evolution
Discovering proof of evolution
People deny lying because they want to find a way out of it.
No. People are not bullet proof.
all bacteria will form and there will be a massive wave of pollution
They don't. There is proof against, not for evolution. Why don't we see a partially evolved elephant or such?
