Now I know it is called a theory but, don檛 we have proof of it that we see every day, look at strawberries. Naturally strawberries are smaller than a blueberry. How is it now the size it is. It is a larger size because of genetic engineering. Genetic engineering still proves evolution because the plan adapts to the shock and the change and grows without problem. We are a prime example we had to adapt during the ice age, and when the world heated back up. Look at how birds and animals are pulling out of hibernation early because the weather has changed so much that spring came earlier. It doesn檛 have to be a dramatic change to be evolution and adaptation to environment. Another thing is that we have proof that humans had a lot more hair than we do now is that not adapting ? just some food for thoughtEvolution Theory or not?
There is a rare moth which has a long snout, it only drinks from a specific type of plant where the nectar is deep within the flower. The moth has adapted through time to drink from this particular plant - it's effected it physically and the way it behaves. Like you say about humans losing their hair, there are many many instances of animals behavior which correspond with Darwin's theory of Evolution.
Why many people believe in a snake and an apple is beyond me. Sometimes people rather have faith then be scientific. Science hasn't explained everything yet.Evolution Theory or not?
Of course evolution is a theoryEvolution Theory or not?
The definition of %26quot;Theory%26quot; in science in different.Evolution Theory or not?
No matter how much you prove it, it will still be a theory. That is the definition of scientific theory. Gravity is also a theory, and although few realize it, it is actually less understood than evolution.Evolution Theory or not?
First, most of the things you mentioned aren't evolution. Some of them are the lack of it leading to problems in animal behavior that could lead to their extinction. Anyways...
A %26quot;Theory%26quot; in science is something to which all available fact point to as correct.
Evolution is a theory. Certain aspects of what we think of when we say %26quot;Evolution Theory,%26quot; are just hypothesis. It's important to know which are which. (Actually, I guess it's not really. It doesn't affect anything in your life at all.)Evolution Theory or not?
It is a theory just like gravity. In fact, it has a lot more evidence for how it works than gravity.Evolution Theory or not?
It is only referred to as a 'Theory' because all of it's mechanisms are not understood yet, and they are still being studied. Like the Theory of Gravity.Evolution Theory or not?
You are speaking of microevolution. Changes within a species. Creationism doesn't have an argument with that. Microevolution has been proven.
Macroevolution however is the issue, which is what the whole debate is about. Macroevolution is about one species turning into another. Like a fish into a bear.
That has not been proven, so I would have to say %26quot;Not.%26quot;Evolution Theory or not?
Complete factEvolution Theory or not?
The scientific definition of the word %26quot;theory%26quot; would be the correct definition, and doesn't lessen the value of what the theory is about. All working scientific studies are %26quot;theories%26quot;. Sammer was correct in his definition of %26quot;theory%26quot; being: %26quot;A 'Theory' in science is something to which all available fact point to as correct.%26quot; That's what it means in the scientific world.
The Christian use of %26quot;theory%26quot;, no. They warp the use of the word to suit their own purposes.
That's a good question, though.Evolution Theory or not?
Catherine E really gave a succinct answer.Evolution Theory or not?
