It is "theory" due to the holes still present. Gravity is a law.
Newton's law of universal gravitation
what are these holes in the theory of evolution?
Its mostly where some traits came to be, and missing links in the paths.
ah yes, the missing links
But its enough to prevent it from becoming a law.
There are no "missing links".
Doesn't that only apply to humans?
Im fairly certain we've traced the evolutionary paths of other species pretty clearly.
There are tons of missing links. Hell we are still discovering many species. And many species are changing.
There are no "missing links" because evolution doesn't just happen over night. It's a gradual change that takes a large amount of time.
we have evidence for both micro and macroevolution though, so these "missing" links are not holes in the theory
Hell 10 years ago veloceraptor was a scaled human size creature, 20 it was cold blooded.
Now its a warm blooded feathered creature
how is our expanding knowledge of fossils somehow a failure of the theory of evolution, though?
My point is unlike gravity, or motion, evolution and the species are constantly changing.
Yes, that's whole point of evolution.
evolution is not constantly changing
Jesus Christ
yes as well, but in layman's terms.
I never said it was a failure
and by pretty solid I mean incredibly solid <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
Every time an organism is conceived, it can have a mutation. Enough of these build up and it leads to something different than before over many, many, many, many generations.
I said it was enough to prevent it from being a law like other scientific ideas, completely different from failure
no
literally just no
gravity breaks down on the quantum level, and is not described by the "law"
Gravity is a theory.
through and through
Newton's law of universal gravitation
it is a theory
the same way as evolution.
It is still classed as a theory
stop playing semantics games
Then if it breaks down at the quantum level, it too isnt omnesipent.
Its ok to not have all the answers. It doesnt discret it or mean its a failure
much smarter men than I have taken on this discussion before
I think yall are mistaking my point
I was trying to get to your point, by asking about the spiritualism stuff
@Goblin_Slayer_Floki Tell me, what do you think evolution is.
because I've heard this from religious people before
