Agelbert NOTE: I did not write any of this well referenced material. Rather than posting the entire list of responses
🔬 to the common objections of evolutionists to their theory's false predictions, I will post one each day.
You can view previous objections and the responses to them by scrolling this topic thread.
After this section is completed, we will move on to the importance of exposing the failed Darwinian Evolution Theory Predictions and a detailed discussion of said failed predictions.
Since I took pre-med in college, late in life, I am well versed in the language of molecular biology. When a term comes up that the average reader might not be familiar with, I will define it to save the reader some time.
Feel free to pass this on to friends and family, always including the references. These scholarly references are important to credibie debate. Please make sure you include them and the .DarwinsPredicitions web site link.
.DarwinsPredictionsThis section examines various concerns evolutionists often have regarding their theory’s false predictions.
Responses to common objections
Evolutionists have fixed these false predictions
A proponent of a theory, given sufficient motivation, can explain all kinds of contradictory findings. (Quine) Typically, however, there is a price to be paid as the theory becomes more complex and has less explanatory power.
