Again, when presented with the single-cell the multiple-cell falsification proof, which would unequivocally refute common descent, it was dismissed as ''virtually impossible to prove''.

:You are consistently misrepresenting what I am writing.  I did not say it was virtually impossible to prove -- I said "it is virtually impossible to prove something is false."  I provided you with an example.  You didn't respond.  [[User:Ungtss|Ungtss]] 16:23, 27 June 2007 (EDT)

''Why summarily dismiss perfectly valid proofs?  Ungst answers this question with two statements. First, ''It's important to note that I put evolutionism and creationism in the same category -- hypotheses that are not yet falsifiable.'' Second, ''I agree with you that creationism can make no falsifiable predictions''  Given that creationism is not falsifiable, it removes itself from the realm of science.  The only way left for creationism to compete with evolution is to try to also remove common descent from the realm of science by claiming there are no valid falsification arguments for evolution.''
