Evolutionist Re-Definition Council Minutes:

Chair: This monthly meeting is called to order. The first and only order of business today is whether we should allow our definition of "evolution" to, er, uh, evolve from what we adopted in our last meeting.

Definition sub-committee chair: Mr. Chairperson, since we've not found anything since our last meeting that conflicts with our previously adopted definition, I make a motion to the effect that we not change, er, uh, allow the definition to evolve at this time.

Chair: Do I hear a second. The motion has been second-ed. All in favor of adopting the motion as second-ed, signify your agreement by saying "aye". All opposed, "nay".

Chair: The "ayes" have it and let the minutes reflect that the definition remains unchanged for the time being. However, as chair I reserve the right to call a special meeting of the Council when evidence contrary to our previous understanding come to our attention and it becomes apparent the definition of the term "evolution" must be allowed to evolve once again so as to provide our staunchest adherents ammunition to fend off what we all would consider "by definition", unwarranted criticisms.

Chair: Meeting adjourned.

Its not the Evos that are redefining Evolution, it is the anti-evos. The definition of Evolution has always included adaptation. Read the "Origin of Species".
