Half right----evolution can't be expressed in "relatively simple mathematical formulas" (but neither can most of the OTHER interactions of biology)---however, evolution CAN (and has) successfully predicted a number of things--like the development of insectide resistance among insect populations, and the development of antibiotic resistance by bacteria.

Totally irrelevant non-sequitur. That's like arguing that if a huge meteor strikes and leaves a huge geologic hole, it verifies the theory and role of erosion.

I see neither a necessity nor a possibility of a nexus between insecticides and evolution.

Wrong.

"I see neither a necessity nor a possibility of a nexus between insecticides and evolution."

Then you know nothing about science.
