Regarding a concise defintion of the theory of evolution
Regarding a concise definition
I am glad to hear that the panel came to a decision on this matter. I have a question though and it is probably based on the panel seeing a prior version of the article and not the current article.
Here is what a panel spokesperson wrote:
"We have decided that the article will not be changed in any major way. However, we agree that the article lacks an adequate, concise explanation of the Theory of Evolution." [1]
Here is what the article states now:
Today advocates of evolution no longer adhere to "natural selection" as the definition of evolution, but rather define it simply as any "change over time" in the genetic composition of a population....
Merriam-Webster's dictionary defines evolution as a "theory that the various types of animals and plants have their origin in other preexisting types and that the distinguishable differences are due to modifications in successive generations." [1].....
Evolutionist Theodosius Dobzhansky wrote: "The process of mutation is the only known source of the new materials of genetic variability, and hence of evolution." [2] Evolutionists believe that the processes of natural selection and mutation created every species of life that we see on earth today after life first came about on earth. [3] Creationist scientists believe that mutations and natural selection would not cause macroevolution. [4][5][6][7][8]
MY SUMMATION STATEMENT TO THE PANEL:
I think the above current version gives a concise and adequate explanation of the theory of evolution and Aschlafly concurrs. I am hoping that the panel agrees and that they based their statement above based on a prior version they read.
