Not really, no. It is pretty solid as theories go, imho. For the most part I have found that those who dismiss evolution usually do so because they do not understand it very well. Add to this the reality that I have yet to hear a single compelling argument originating from the Creationist/Intelligent Design camps and my feelings on the matter should be fairly clear. One should not pander to ignorance more than is necessary.

Pathetically, persistently, and pretentiously, with all the acumen of a high school dropout ...

The theory of Evolution

The theory of evolution is a naturalistic theory of the history of life on earth (this refers to the theory of evolution which employs methodological naturalism and is taught in schools and universities). Merriam-Webster's dictionary gives the following definition of evolution: "a theory that the various types of animals and plants have their origin in other preexisting types and that the distinguishable differences are due to modifications in successive generations. This includes the theory that man is developed from the ancestral apes.

According to the scientists," they believe in the evolution theory of man's origin. This theory was first proposed by Charles Darwin, a British Scientist, as published in his book Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection. According to Darwin, man was not created by God; he was a product of evolution or development through successive species beginning from the primate apes."

To those of you who said that the theory of evolution is now a fact, think again. According to a history book supported by many archaeologists, " The idea that man evolved or developed is only a theory, not a positive science fact. It is full of gaps,especially with regards to the "missing link" between or common ancestor of ape and man" -The World History, fifth edition by Gregorio and Sonia Zaide.

You have no idea how laughable that is. You clearly deserve your ignorance having worked so hard to buttress it.

You are aware of course that absolutely all scientific theories are naturalistic? And that the theory of evolution is no different in this respect from the theory or relativity, or the theory of electromagnetism, or germ theory, or atomic theory etc.

Sorry, but this IS laughable. Ask any biologist whether evolution is "only a theory" or fact.

Yes. I just posted it.

I would suggest that you read articles about this theory written by a biologist instead of an historian.
