Fact of Evolution 3of6

"Nothing in biology makes sense except in light of evolution" Dobzhansky




Is evolution a fact? Yes! Is evolution a theory? Yes, a scientific theory is the highest form of nomenclature in science. It is an explanatory framework which brings together a large body of facts and allows for predicted outcomes. This awesome series from cassiopeiaproject explains many of the interesting details around the facts of evolution.

Your comments are insulting.

Micro AND genetics BOTH support evolution along with fossil records.

You are not a scientist. You know nothing about science.

This is why neither creationism nor IDism can survive ANY court cases.

You don't know science. You are not a scientist. Even IDers acknowledge the FACT of evolution.

Go troll somewhere else.

@jonathanpaulmayer Well, it's been a year. Have you learned why virtually all scientists know that we've evolved from non-human animals, or do you still not get it?

Google Project Steve NCSE and feel foolish.

12) Mutation rates can certainly be measured, but no hard evidence of a beneficial mutation has ever been recorded. To rely on harmful or zero-effect mutation rates is faulty at best.

13) Speciation has been observed in lab organisms only so far as their flexible definition permits. As mentioned in #11, the inability to interbreed does not serve as a good definition of what a species is. Therefore, all of their examples of speciation are subject to speculation.

[jonathanpaulmayer]

Fallacious arguments cont'd:

10) "When new species emerge, it is always from an ancestor." This is assumed, but the fossil record is full of animals that arrive suddenly and without precedence.

11) If the useful definition of species is "organisms that can interbreed," examples of separate and distinct species that can interbreed would seem to make the "useful" definition useless. There are also known varieties of dog that cannot interbreed, yet are still the same species.
