Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
'Evolution' refers to both the fact of evolution (a change in allele frequency over time) and the theory of evolution (the theory that all life is descended from a common ancestor, and variation is due to evolution by natural selection).
So, with that established, what's the best evidence or rationale against one or both?

I don't know that it counts as evidence against, and it's probably only a bit of nitpicking of your phrasing, but I thought this study on UCA was interesting ... or should I say the criticisms of this study, which came later around post #59.

1. My religious dogma demands I reject evolutionism.
2. Evolutionism makes me feel all "icky" inside. I prefer "warm and fuzzy."

You cannot use evolution to define evolution.
No "...and variation is due to evolution by natural selection" its not.
Can't you evolutionists do this correcting?

If you got stuck at the first hurdle, maybe this race isn't for you. Thanks for trying, though!

Even if what you agreed to is incorrect?
Evolution does not cause variation.
Variation allows for changes to happen.
Evolution is the end result of the natural selection process.

Do I stop when the logic is wrong. Yes....that's a wall. Logic is no hurdle to jump unless your a new student of natural sciences.
You can't use a word to define itself. Don't bother trying.

Oooh, still struggling with that first hurdle. Keep at it, you'll get it eventually. Thanks for playing!
