Belief does not enter into it. Understanding evolution depends only on knowledge of the physical world. The existence of the process of evolution is an irrefutable fact. Life on this planet is old and has changed continuously since its inception.

Microevolution is a fact. Anything else, including the so-called theory of evolution, in all its guises, is an ideological doctrine and a belief system, like communism or naziism. Try reading through my large post above for comprehension rather than simply for making your knees jerk. The arguments involving probability are sufficiently real. Evolutionism and mathematics are incomparible. You've got world-class mathematicians like Fred Hoyle and Bob Bass claiming macroevolution is impossible and you had the Wistar symposia at which a collection of the world's best mathematicians told the evos they were FUBAR. You're beating a dead horse.

You must have posted that thing about 200 times by now. I practically have it memorized. It contains not a single valid argument and this has been pointed out to you well more than 200 times.

Crusading pseudomathematicians can write as many equations as they want. Examine their assumptions and there are always mistakes. No exceptions. Hypothesizing fictitious conditions to produce a predetermined outcome is a piece of cake for a motivated math hobbyist. Mathematicians or biologists modelling real systems however have no problem producing equations with real predictive power. Try reading Stephen Hubbell if you finally want to dispel your persistent illusion that math is incompatible with real biology.
