Counterexamples to Evolution
The human mouth is overcrowded with teeth, our ancestors with longer jaws suffered less overcrowding. See talk.

every male dog, cat, horse, elephant, giraffe, fish and bird DID evolve with a corresponding female. In fact, these animals evolved with entire populations to reproduce with

Counterexamples to Evolution
Humans generally don't notice extremely gradual change, so this example relies on human fallibility, not the non-existence of evolution

Counterexamples to Evolution
The portion of DNA that normally allows mammals to produce vitamin C is defective in humans. This segment of DNA is completely useless, and provides no benefit to humans.

Counterexamples to Evolution
Personality types do not need to benefit humanity, they just need to reproduce. Teleological arguments are invalid for discussing the validity of Evolutionary theory

My points on the evolution of dogs and the presence of two kidneys have not been sufficiently refuted for either example to qualify as an actual counterexample

Counterexamples to Evolution
Two kidneys are still present because it's almost impossible to get rid of one genetically without losing the other. See talk

It turns out you CAN breed a "dog" from a feral canid! Can the "counterexample" be removed now?

Cavemen and wolves

Counterexamples to Evolution
Species are groups of animals that can freely interbreed. A group of animals that can freely interbreed are C. lupus (dogs and wolves). Thus, dogs and wolves are same species. Basic logic
-546
Counterexamples to Evolution
So either dogs + wolves are the same species, and example is wrong, or they are different species and evolution is proven true. There is NO WAY for this "counterexample" to falsify evolution.
-547
Counterexamples to Evolution
To be more specific, there are differences between wolves and dogs, but they are still, biologically, the same species and can interbreed with no loss in fertility or viability.
-547
Counterexamples to Evolution
You can't breed a dog from wolves for the same reason Asian couples don't have Black children. Are you saying different races are different species, despite being able to freely interbreed?
-547
Counterexamples to Evolution
Wolves and Dogs are the same species, as they can produce viable offspring.

Reasons why the Artistic Beauty Argument Fails as a Counterexample: new section

Counterexamples to Evolution
Beauty is a side-effect of other factors, like following a growth pattern for the most efficient light absorption or attracting mates. Beauty and fitness are not mutually exclusive.
