So I am assuming that you are of the belief that there is no philosophy in science......... and I would beg to differ with you ... I have seen no evidence of your so called evidence... to merely state that the existence of genes and the evidence of natural selection means that evolution exists is quite a feeble attempt at best.........
I understand that there is philosophy in science. I just reject philosophical arguments as a waste of time. Atomists and anti-atomists argued for a thousand years before science came up with the proof that answered the question. Both sides had compelling philosophical positions.
