The website I cited is a Creationist website that agrees with the definition of evolution I posted: A change in the alelle frequency of a population over time. The portion of the passage you omitted contains this information.

Except perhaps to the very young, the very ignorant, or the very dishonest, the definition of the word "evolution" is not in doubt. The validity of the theory is the subject of the debate. Many people can distinguish between the two usages. You may not be among them.

As far as I know, ideas about evolution are as wide ranging as ideas about creation. The definition you've adopted is understandable, and it is good, I suppose, to have at least this mooring by which you might test other ideas. Just as absolute certainty with respect to the nature of gravity, electricty, light, etc. remains to be discovered, so too absolute certainties with respect to evolution and/or creation remain to be learned.

Nobody knows it all, but certain folks are good pretenders.

Not only are you a liar, you are a shameless liar. With the post showing that the site calls the definition you gave MISLEADING (which you dishonestly did not post) and with the article named THE EVOLUTION SHELL GAME you dare to say that the site supports your definition? You have no shame. The post showing your dishonesty is: Post# 1817
