must admit dmcg, that I thought natural selection was much more than slower animals getting caught easier. does it not also involve the refining and even loss of genetic information, adaptability, and even speciation. I expect I missed some other ideas as well. if such limited changes equals evolution, I guess that makes me an evolutionist !.....except that these days it is conjectured that random mutations [even though most are downhill] lead to new information to develop microbes to man macro change, and that is also called evolution. but the evidence offered is only of limited change that pertains to evidence only of change within the kind....not beyond it.
point taken re subsequent post, but bearing in mind darwins almost godlike position in some of his devotees minds, I thought it worth saying, especially as he seems to have - borrowed- ideas from creationists and other evolutionists prior to his book.
and it even brings into question whether "darwins rules" is an accurate and worthwhile ascription.
