But when it's such a significant part of someones public life, it seems weird that specifics aren't clarified.

But when it's such a significant part of someones public life, it seems weird that specifics aren't clarified.Not all of my views are clearly defined.
I am aware that the modern theory takes in account genetics and other factors that Darwin didn't but I'm not an expert on it and wouldn't try to argue with you about it. Just because I posted a link about Tour doesn't mean I agree with everything Aussie Pete is sayingExcept that if you didn't, you'd have known that Darwinian evolution has long been superseded by the modern theory of evolution. Darwinian evolution specifically refers to evolution has thought of and evidenced by Charles Darwin. It is no longer used as the theory of evolution.
And semantically, theistic evolution is and isn't creationism, since it does and also doesn't fit the 'models' of creation.
Generally, the term "creationist" when used alone is assumed to mean a young-Earth of biblical creationist. Granted, that is somewhat careless speech, but to apply the term to anyone who believes in a god (and hence, creation by that god) would be useless in this forum since so many theists accept the theory of evolution. Creationists do try it on, since for some reason many of them seem to want to turn the creation/evolution debate into a theism/atheism debate, but that is really off topic in this forum.I didn't sweep anything under the broad brush of Darwinism that is what the link I posted referred to. Isn't Theistic Evolution a form of creation? Are people who believe in that Creationists?
Absolutely.So without Darwin you would still have the modern theory of evolution?
That's the thing about true things... their truth isn't controlled by who first tells you about it.From what I am reading a lot of people agree with you
"Publish or perish," as they say.Very likely. Darwin wasn't the only one who had thought of it--he justpublished first.
Not everyone agrees. It seems science went down some rabbit trails when this was being worked outThat's the thing about true things... their truth isn't controlled by who first tells you about it.
What is a fact? The Theory of Evolution? Ottawak says you don't get that with a scientific theory. Read what he posted in his reply to Aussie Pete. Or that someone else would have discovered it? I can't see how you call that a factIts not just " agree", its a fact

Scientific evidence doesn't give you perfection, it gives you demonstrable conclusions.Not everyone agrees. It seems science went down some rabbit trails when this was being worked out
That has nothing to do with the Theory of Evolution. Having to use a dictionary to define a scientific term is super cringe brah.
Science has a very good clue about what Earth was like back then. Did you not get taught that in school?
Finally, thanks for providing great evidence that my previous assertion is bang on.
No, it cannot be theorized without evidence. If you say there is no evidence, the best you can hope for is an hypothesis.

Therefore we crawled out of an ocean that was created when a comet hit the earth.
Sure evolution is taught in school ... life on earth is way way complex as we have learned from science .... there is scientific data collected and then there are many interpretations/theories of the data collected .... and there are many.
No one was there .... so it's not/wasn't observable, nor testable .... and to our knowledge has not been repeated.
The mathematical probability of "happen chance" over billions of years for even a single cell to "form" is horrendous much less with the cells ability to copy itself.
The complexity of life screams design.
