YOu keep tossing around this "theory of evolution" as if it is a
single definition of a single law of science. Could you please
post a reference to such a definition and also a reference that
clearly demonstrates that such definition is the only one that
is widely accepted by the scientific community.


That original statement is completely false. Darwin stated that
organisms evolve to fit the environment in which they live, or they face
extinction. The oceans, for example, are an extremely stable
environment. Sharks will evolve, or go extinct, when the oceans change
in some appreciable way that threatens shark survival. Those offspring
that survive will produce offspring that are more likely to survive in
those new conditions. Most who do not understand evolution make those
broad statements which prove their lack of knowledge.

I stand by my original post.
