A fact is a concept whose truth can be proved.
A theory is A set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena, especially one that has been repeatedly tested or is widely accepted and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena.
Even though it's founder didn't really know for sure??? Wow.
Yes, really.
Darwin had doubts - healthy ones. Remember he was trained as a theologian. He was not an atheist. What he discovered upset him personally.
But he could not deny what science showed him.
And he's been proven right, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
again.
There is no real debate about evolution, there are people educated enough to grasp it, and people who evidently are not.
I have NEVER met a creationists, online or in person, that actually understood evolution. If they could, they wouldn't be creationists.
All cells contain 100% of the same DNA as all other cells. Different cells simply express different parts of that same DNA. This is the phenomenon we see when stem cells differentiate into bone, or nerve or smooth muscle tissue.
You have such a simplistic understanding of the process by which genome becomes phenome that almost nothing in your account makes any genuine sense. Perhaps you just didn't cover the material in jeweler school.

You have been badly misinformed. No such experiment has ever actually taken place. Link to a peer reviewed journal or admit that you are a sucker.
We're on page 18 of discussing the scientific merits of evolution. Can any creationist provide evidence to support the theory of creationism? Any scientific experimentation? Even a logical arguement? Or is it just "because I said so"?
I truly value these humble words by Mr. Albert Einstein himself:
Quote:
You may call me an agnostic... I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth. I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being.

Last I checked, it was "for the bible tells me so".
