Perhaps not quite what you're looking for, but this was another find that caused a "revolution" of rethinking about evolution.

No it didn't.

That seems to happen an awful lot.

No, it doesn't. Not in the way you're trying to imply.

Interesting, but not the kind of "challenge" to evolution you're trying to spin it as. You and the rest of the evolutin-haters have *really* got to learn the difference between "rethinking" the history of specific lineages, and "rethinking" evolution itself.

It's like the difference between having to reconsider the path that a bullet took through a badly decomposed body being studied in a murder investigation, versus having to "rethink" the laws of physics.

This was Hawkaw's point, but it zoomed right over your head.

You anti-evolutionists keep taking examples similar to the former and trying to wave them around as if they were the latter. In most cases, it's due to gross ignorance of the field you're attempting to "critique" (most anti-evolutionists don't know squat about biology, or how science is done), but in many cases it's just outright dishonesty and willful propaganda.

Which is it in your case?

You may want to be careful about admitting the things that will cause reconsideration of evolution. You just might find them.

And you may want to be careful about understanding a topic before you make any more goofy misstatements about it.
