Who was saying it wasn't theory? Lot's of things are theorys.

i dont get this. how can you argue that mutation, independent assortment, crossing over, natural selection, etc wont produce new species over time.

how can you argue the fossil records.

galapagos finch beak sizes changing in response to local weather and seed sizes has been more than well documented. this is natural selection; evolution in action

Hence why it's still a theory.

Most things in science today are "still a theory", in fact almost all are. Relativity is still a theory. Physics, the speed of light, gravity, expanding universe - all theories. Why? Because it is easy to disprove but nearly impossible to prove.

Theories are what we use as a basis for our understanding of this world, and until they are disproven, they are good as fact as far as science is concerned.

Ya know what, don't take my word for it. Just read what wikipedia says about "theories":

In science, a theory is a mathematical description, a logical explanation, a verified hypothesis, or a proven model of the manner of interaction of a set of natural phenomena, capable of predicting future occurrences or observations of the same kind, and capable of being tested through experiment or otherwise falsified through empirical observation. It follows from this that for scientists "theory" and "fact" do not necessarily stand in opposition. For example, it is a fact that an apple dropped on earth has been observed to fall towards the center of the planet, and the theory which explains why the apple behaves so is the current theory of gravitation.

Funny how you call evolution a theory as if it is some kind of slander. "Oh but it's only a theory, so I can believe whatever I want!" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I would never call evolution a theory in a slanderous manner... I'd only do that to organized religion...

My fault. I thought you were calling it a theory with bible-thumping intentions.

While you may not have meant that, there are a lot of idiots out there who think they have won the battle because "evolution hasn't been proven". //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I would feel bad for those kind of people if I didn't hate them so much for ****ing up our country, among other things. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Well, the popular belief may be that Gandhi was a fanboy of Thoreau. The truth, however, is that later in life Gandhi grew to despise Thoreau. In fact, Gandhi would later refer to Thereau's ideas expressed in "Civil Disobedience" as a "crock of shit." Gandhi confided in members of his crewe that his one regret was that he ever went off on the whole nonviolence tangent in the first place. He then had one of his boys kill him so that he could meet up with Thoreau in the afterlife and "put a boot in his ***."
