But in science, isn't a theory an assumption that is backed by considerable evidence, such as the theory of relativity or the atomic theory?

That's the point at which I realized this article wasn't going to have anything useful to offer. Anyone who can say that a theory is by definition "not a science" doesn't know what he's talking about. And that's a fact, not a theory.

AGREE. The author has no idea what the scientific definition of theory is.

Evolution is a fact. We are evolving even now. In fact we are participating in and directing in our own evolution right now.

Prosthetic limbs, gene manipulation, cloning, are all part of the evolutionary process. GOOGLE “transhumanism” and see what the future holds for future generations.

Everything changes. We conservatives can only hold back the tide for a few decades. But change will come for good or ill and we will all be long gone just ssh our ancestors are long gone.
