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.
Do you have an alternate theory?
One of the standard techniques of the anti-science crowd is to
construct a strawman version of a supposed theory and then
attack that. They often ignore or misunderstand the real
science that is understood and practiced by scientists.
(This from a study by a York University professor - I
can dig up his name and possibly the publication of the
study if you're desperately in need of satisfaction.)
I stand by my original post.
Which simply dismisses intelligent design while touting evolution without
explaining your version of evolution and without a rational analysis of my
question as to why sharks are still sharks 400 million years down the
evolutionary line.
