[QUOTE="Chris Johnson, post: 66450, member: 975"] So many issues here. First, evolution is too broad a term and refers to many connected scientific theories, some with more supporting evidence than others. But I presume what most people mean is macroevolution. Secondly, the above is certainly still a theory. A body of research and supporting evidence exists, but certainly not enough to consider it a fact. Thirdly, creationism is too broad a term. Even broader than evolution. Ultimately though, it's a silly argument. Partly because macroevolution is only concerned with the development of species over time through the process of incremental genetic adaptation. Creationism, on the other hand (and regardless of your religion) is more to do with the origin of the universe and the existence of a creator. One does not preclude the other. However, the argument normally revolves around other held beliefs not actually explicit in either 'evolution' or 'creationism'. Personally, im happy to leave the debate to evolutionary biologists and theologians... But they don't spend much time arguing with one another... Sent from my Nexus 7 2 [/QUOTE]
