ifinnegan: "Evolution is so ipso facto that any scientific finding can support it and none can falsify it."

No, not ipso facto, but in fact that has proved to be the case.
For example: estimates of the total number of fossils found and now in various museum collections worldwide are in the billions representing hundreds of thousands of species.
The number of fossils clearly identified as contradicting basic evolution theories is: zero.

Is that because of massive fraud or a religious mind-set commitment to outdated science?
I don't think so.
Any scientist would be renowned for finding a better explanation, just consider when Einstein overthrew some of Newton's old ideas.

But it doesn't happen, because many better ideas have come along over the years but none falsify basic evolution theory of speciation through:

  1. Descent with modifications and
  2. Natural selection
