:Ed, we do see natural selection, antibiotic resistance in bacteria due to genetic mutation. HIV mutation to allow for resistance to binding protein blockers. Sickle cell anemia in locations of the world where malaria is prevalent.--[[User:Tims|TimS]] 14:52, 30 March 2007 (EDT)
Actually, for evolution to be falsifiable (and it is) we must be able to posit a phenomenon that is not explainable by evolution. See my stegasaurus bone example. The peppered moth thing is only one small example, and if another explanation is found that is non-evolutionary, then it taps away at the base of the theory, but alone has not yet destroyed it.--[[User:palmd001|PalMD]]<sup>[[User_talk:palmd001|talk]]</sup> 14:49, 30 March 2007 (EDT)
