Ok, let me go back and take a look.
With all due respect, the purpose of this thread is to discuss the example given in the original post, not to provide a lesson on elementary biology.
If you wish to expand your understanding of evolution, invest in a book from Amazon.
With respect, you're going round in circles and playing with words.
What about "microevolution", as some people on this thread seem to accept - is that a theory, in your vocabulary?
You're not exposing anything.
In the 16th century the Church would have called people who believed that the Earth is not at the centre of the universe 'false doctrine'.
Have a wonderful and blessed day.
I don't like the tone of your question.
"Pretty simply question" feels like you're talking down to me. Please stop, otherwise you will be reported to moderators.
As regards your question, I don't have the answer to that.
Yes, not relevant.
Some have attempted to turn this thread, about evolution, into a thread about the beginning of the universe, the big bang and the origin of life.
Not relevant at all, as it has nothing whatsoever to do with evolution.
I have no idea. However, I don't see how that is directly relevant.
My point exactly.
I don't understand why you call evolution "just a theory" and gravity a fact.
You use the word "theory" as a strange kind of put down, which I really don't understand.
The 'laws' that you say Newton discovered...
Gravity is also a theory. Do you not believe that gravity exists?
I am also a Christian, as you know. I however do not reject truths about the world in which I live for purely dogmatic reasons.
See my post (number 14) in this thread.
I don't even know why many like-minded Christians choose not to believe that evolution is a fact.
It reminds me of how in the 16th century Galileo was placed under house arrest for going against religious dogma that stated that the world is at the centre of the universe.
We now say that nothing...
Interesting that you believe in "micro evolution" but not "macro evolution" because "there is no evidence for one species turning into another".
So do you think wolves and chihuahuas are the same species?
