Actually, it is kinda related.

By 1850, every scientist in Europe realized that Evolution was a fact, but they had no idea how it worked.

Darwin, even if his origional theory was not able to account for all of the facts, did an outstanding job of explaining about 90% of what we observe today. Not a bad record!

Now people like Gore3000 expect me to dismiss the scientific facts and believe in magic.

Personally, I have absolutly no problems with the theory of magic, even if it is almost impossible to verify using scientific methods.

So, as I see it tonight, Gore3000 is supporting my alternative theory of magic?

Darwin has a horrible record. Let's see, the brachyocephalic index, the melding theory were pretty central to his theory. More importantly though he based his theory on Malthusianism which has been totally disproven. Even worse was his 'brilliant idea' which followed the ridiculous Malthusian theory - natural selection. Now natural selection may be true to a certain extent. However, natural selection only destroys organism, species, and genetic traits, it never creates them. So as an explanation of the descent of man from bacteria it is totally ludicrous. Only a charlatan like him could have pulled such an idiocy as 4-2 = 6 and gotten away with it for so long.

Just flat wrong. The point of science is to tell us how things work.

Darwin speculates but he explains nothing. The evidence contradicts him. It is an abominable record.
