>>There is far more evidence supporting the theory of evolution (and indeed it is a scientific theory) than gravitational theory.<<
HA, ha. Baloney. 911 was evidence supporting the theory of gravity. Our orbit of the sun is evidence that supports the theory of gravity. When I pour milk on my cereal there is yet more evidence supporting the theory of gravity.
And yet with that, we really cannot prove whether or not it pulls or pushes. Both sides can be argued.
Some evolution has been observed, like the evolution of the Corvette, while others have not, like speciation. And evolution is a "catch all" phrase anyway. Gravity is one of the four forces. Simple. Concise. Evolution is...what? That one type of fruit fly outnumbers another until the conditions favor the latter, at which point they reverse population percentages? Yeah, some call that evolution and I believe that sort of evolution happens all the time. It is observable.
But when someone says that dogs came from the primordial soup, I can explain the logical fallacies necessary to come to that belief. I can show them that all of the evidence for such a belief is based in faith, mostly in FUTURE discoveries. If they are a True Believer, there is nothing to do but smile and nod.
