I only scanned the article, but I didn’t see any reference to the biggest myth of all, the claim that evolution explains the origin of life itself. Both sides of the argument constantly misrepresent evolution in that area.

An excellent book that everyone should read is “The Long War Against God.” Henry M. Morris. 1989. Baker Book House. It is a terrific book that explains evolution in an historical perspective.

Darwin never claimed to know the Irgun of life, only origin of species.

Hence the name of his book.

Abiogenesis is not part of the theory of evolution. Evolution deals with life coming from life. Abiogenesis is about life coming from organic chemicals - not life.

“Evolution” doesn’t EXPLAIN anything.

“Evolution” is a word that essentially means “a collection of scientific observations used to create a story of everything, most of which is guesswork”.

Evolution can’t tell you what you will see tomorrow. Evolution can’t prove what happened a billion years ago, or a million years ago. Evolution fails to predict the next discovery, or the next archeological dig.

You might as well “believe in Evolution”, because it takes real faith.

On the other hand, you’d be a fool not to believe THAT (note not “believe in”) viruses mutate, that characteristics are selected for over time, or a host of other observable scientific realities.
