From the New Scientist article:

The tree-of-life concept was absolutely central to Darwin’s thinking, equal in importance to natural selection...Without it the theory of evolution would never have happened.

I think you've scored your "dumbest post of the day" early today. By the way, are you capable of seeing the irony in posting articles that A) bolster evolutionary theory and B) show the strengths of how science actually works?

Stop drooling GGG, this isn’t science abondoning evolution. Science evolves as new data and evidence come to light. As it should because it’s real science - even to the point of re-evaluating core ideas. That’s what makes science so resilient and honest. Creation ‘science’ could never experience such a thing since no evidence or data or facts do, or can, exist which contradict your interpretation of scripture.
