If it's explained, varifiably, duplicated untold millions of times without variation to the basic concept (aerodynamics) .. it's not a theory.

You are confusing the fact of flight with the theory of flight; the former is observed, the latter explains how and why it occurs.

Same with evolution; there is the fact of evolution (change occurs from generation to generation) and the theory that explains how and why that change occurs.

Oh, this is a new one!!! So now "change" is evolution? Give it up, and just call it what it really is: The Cult of Evolution.

1:Evolution: A process in which something passes by degrees to a different stage (especially a more advanced or mature stage)

2: (biology) the sequence of events involved in the evolutionary "development" of a species or taxonomic group of organisms.

That doesn't sound like "change" to me it looks more like "higher degree of "developement" (Advances, not just "changes")

Any evolutionist out there want to play with words today?
