As soon as someone finds some problems with the theory of evolution, Richard Thompson will have a point.

I posted this the other day and you didn't have an answer, so let's try again. ( I have a few more articles about the same subject) I kinda like this one...

Evolution - is it all that it's cracked up to be ? Whilst I lean heavily towards darwinism and accepted evolution theory, I still have some difficulties with the gaps. For example, why is the fossil record so lacking in examples of failed human evolution ? Evolution, as far as I can see, also has some problems in explaining some of the things that we know to be true today. For example, why are humans getting taller - and have been for several hundred years ? Since the tendency has been for humans to get taller over a long period of human social history, it would be reasonable to say that it is unlikely to be a consequence of our recent social framework with better healthcare vs increased pollution etc. So, from a darwinist point of view I would expect there to be a good evolutionary reason. Perhaps the planet is slowing down, gravity getting weaker, so less constraints on height ? Fanciful, but I'm sure you get the gist ? -- Robert Barlow
