Except for the empirical evidence thingy...and the true predictions about what would be found when genomes were sequenced, as opposed to the false predictions of Marx, and the non-predictions of Freud.
In all three cases the true believers have maintained adamantly that the empirical evidence supported their beliefs.
...and the true predictions about what would be found when genomes were sequenced...
I have to admit, I wasn't aware the Darwin wrote extensively about genomes, what with modern genetics not having been developed yet...
Perhaps you were referring to Darwin's predictions of the gazillions of intermediate fossils that would be discovered in the future. Doh!
Speaking of predictions, do you want to conduct a study together of how many times evolutionists have been surprised by a new discovery which did match what they were predicting and forced them to go back and come up with a revised dogma?
