- Do Laws and Standards Evolve? Douglas W. Phillips, Esq. Holmes and his contemporaries laid the foundation for legalized abortion, no-fault divorce, the legalization of homosexuality, and the rejection of the Framers' vision for Constitutional interpretation. Today, most courts have embraced an evolving standard for Constitutional interpretation, rejecting the notion that the Constitution must be interpreted in light of the meanings intended by the Framers
- WallBuilders | Resources | Evolution and the Law:"A Death ... Perhaps the first individual successfully to champion this belief was Christopher Columbus Langdell (1826-1906), dean of the Harvard Law School. Langdell reasoned that since man evolved, then his laws must also evolve; and deciding that judges should guide the evolution of the Constitution, Langdell introduced the case law study method under which students would study the wording of judges decisions rather than the wording of the Constitution.

Missing links: According to science experts, there are significant holes in the fossil record, indicating a lack of evidence for transitions between species, a major Darwinian tenet.
There's only tens of thousands of transitional fossils, but hey, when did truth ever matter?
However, we don't have EVERY single fossil of every animal that ever lived on earth. I guess that's a requirement to prove evolution, to the creationidiots.

Wow.
Four posts without any of the whistle-past-the-graveyard jeering of the God-haunted Darwin's Witnesses.
What's up with that? Are they replaying "Inherit the Wind" on TNT or something?

Any teacher wo does not present evolution as a model or worse yet does not describe the concept of modeling, does a disservice to the creative, young mind.
During my early educational experience Darwinian evolution was presented as fact. It was years later that the concept of modeling was examined and still later that I realized Darwinian evolution was a "popular" model.

Here's an interesting link:
http://www.mcremo.com/ Michael Cremo wrote a book some years ago - Forbidden Archeology or the Hidden History of the Human Race. Goes into much detail proving to reasonable minds some of the fallacies of Darwinism's claim of recent human evolution. Not for the faint of mind. Very scholarly, laced with a little dry humor, does not adhere to any particular platform of belief standard.

Federal legislation has given Christians nationwide a boost in their battle to allow evidence against Charles Darwin's controversial theory I may be off-base, but shouldnt the emphasis be on proving Creationism (Intelligent Design?), rather than on disproving Evolution?

Chemist Henry "Fritz" Schaefer of the University of Georgia, a five-time Nobel nominee, commented, "Some defenders of Darwinism embrace standards of evidence for evolution that as scientists they would never accept in other circumstances."
Since this is a forum for reasoning based on facts, it would help to have one or more examples by Schaefer.

a boost in their battle to allow evidence against Charles Darwin's controversial theory Heh heh. It was controversial a hundred years ago. But just because there are flat-earthers still around doesn't mean the spherical earth "theory" is controversial. It just means some people (fundamentalists) are daffy.

Good one, Remedy!

Double Standards may be the primary trait of the rabid evolutionist.

It would seem to me that the test for evolution would be success through complexity; where a current form of being was successful and remained so through chance advantageous mutation we would expect to find both forms, but where hardship forced adaption it would seem reasonable to find only the more complex form.
Nothing in history allows us to assume that the evolved form per se is better than the previous form, only more successful.
