Please define evolution. Many people use the term incorrectly; i.e., evolution
is the search for the perfect form. Evolutionary theory in a broad sense
merely states that organisms react to changes in environment through natural
selection. This is neither good nor bad nor up nor down.
Evolution is only a theory. Almost all of our scientific "facts" from all
the major branches of science are only theories. Many theories have been
"proven" wrong in the past, and I am sure that some number of our present
theories will be scoffed at in the future. If a theory cant stand on its
own under scrutiny, then it wasnt much of a theory to begin with.
This is, of course, only a theory.
