I didn’t quote any websites, just going on common sense.


Common sense told people that heavy things fall faster than light ones.

Does common sense tell you that you know more chemistry, biology,
physics, geology etc than any scientist on earth?

What led you to the mistaken belief that evolution is random.
Without randomness, evolution is borrowing a characteristic of innate intelligence from Creationism. That's not allowed. And whatever scholarly figure convinced you, and many others, that it was pure evolution dynamics was a liar and a fraud. Your religion is based on lies.

I'm a True Scotsman, but I don't normally go around mentioning it. (This might be the first time in seven decades.)
Nobody asked you anything pertaining to it. I was asked a question to which I answered that. Find better material to insult me with.
You really should get up to date with your arguments.
You mean follow modern science claims as closely as possible so I don't miss each and every changing claim throughout history? No thanks. They change their claims and opinions every decade, if not more often. The Bible never changes and it's still being proven to this day.

What do you call the fact that nobody has ever, in all of recorded history, found or shown any example of a KING becoming a different KIND?

Is that proof that evolution is false?

Or is that disproof of evolution?

Choose.

Hard to say what to call it, there's so much
nonsense packed into it.

" kind" is a meaningless term, just for one.

What you might mean by one kind changing to another
or how it would be demonstrated to your satisfaction, who
including you, knows.

That nowhere remotely is disproof of evolution

Like "genus"?

From the online etymology dictionary:

Genus: 1550s as a term of logic, "kind or class of things" (biological sense dates from c. 1600), from Latin genus (genitive generis) "race, stock, kind; family, birth, descent, origin" (from suffixed form of PIE root *gene- "give birth, beget," with derivatives referring to procreation and familial and tribal groups).

Needs a lot of work. First we have to get everyone to agree on all the genus classifications, then we need to firmly establish that it's the right genetic level to qualify as kinds.

Too bad Linnaeus isn't still around to help you.

Of course, scientists do not attempt to prove theories. It’s impossible because theories are broad explanations, cover a wide range of phenomena, and we don’t know what might be discovered tomorrow. However, scientists do continuously attempt to disprove (invalidate) theories. Like all scientific theories, evolution meets all of the criteria of a valid scientific theory and has never been invalidated.
Science is so unstable that it is constantly changing their own previous definitions of words, as well as their previously stated CERTAINTIES to dodge all of the ever-developing proofs against their absolute nonsense.

There's nothing impressive about the fact that they now claim theory means something other than what it was once held by all the world to mean. As part of the established scientific process 'at that time', a scientist had a "THEORY" and established a hypothesis based upon said theory and then tested out his hypothesis is one or many ways to find his conclusion. Was his theory correct or incorrect. That's how it worked.

Now, because the theory of evolution, among many others, has been so proven wrong for so long, they've completely changed the definition of theory to, once again, move the goal posts, as they are apt to do.

Here is the most common definition of theory from the Webster's New World Dictionary copyright 1968 - this is what the word meant for hundreds of years:
theory - a mere conjecture, or guess.

All evidence supports the validity of evolution.
Not even close.

And reproduce " after" its " kind".

Nobody is exactly like their parents.
How " after" is after?

Everyone has unique mutations.

I dont think amyone calls a hound dog, wolf, and a poodle the same kind of dog.


" After its kind" is kind of meaningless.

Pretending it has been disproved does nothing to convince
anyone but the person pretending

Are you suggesting that all scientists support the theory of evolution?

That's because science changed it from "kind" to "genus".

Now subsequent generations scratch themselves silly wondering what "kind" means.

Exodus 1:8 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.

Have you ever seen a failed attempt at evolution? Has anyone?

Your attempts at killer gotcha questions are kind of childish.

Likewise the trick of " answering" a question with a question.

You could just say if you really do think
that you know more science than any
scientist on earth.
A claim to know to know that ToE is false
is making said claim.
So you could just say.
Ive no trouble being
forthright. Try it.

Hitler would have, if he had lived long enough to see his Aryan race die of inbreeding depression.
