* The Oxford English Dictionary defines evolution as "a process by which species develop from earlier appearance as an explanation of their origins", the definition contains no information stating this is only a theory and does not point to alternate theories which are just as or more viable.
* The Oxford English Dictionary defines evolution as "a process by which species develop from earlier appearance as an explanation of their origins", the definition contains no information stating this is only a theory and does not point to alternate theories which are just as or more viable.
* Conversly, the Oxford English Dictionary defines creationism as "the belief that the universe and living organisms originate from specific acts of divine creation, as in the biblical account, '''rather than by natural processes such as evolution'''." So when they define creationism, it is presented as a controversial theory with alternatives but when they define evolution there is no mention of creationism at all.
