:Folks, if it's so obvious that the Law of Large Numbers does not disprove the theory of random genetic drift -- which is central to the theory of evolution -- then it should be easy to explain in a few sentences free of jargon.  Right?--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 23:17, 14 March 2012 (EDT)

::I'll give it a try.  The law of large numbers requires the sample observations (such as heights) to come from the same distribution.  Trends are seen in the heights over time.  Evolutionists would argue that this may suggest that the distribution of heights in the population (and thus the population) is, in fact, changing over time.  [[User:GregG|GregG]] 23:24, 14 March 2012 (EDT)
