That isn't the religious definition of prediction. Religious predictions are from faith.
If Darwinism is paradoxically true and all things happen by chance, then it stands to reason that the sun for instance, ought to behave erratically rather than predicatably.
The observation is that the Earth is spinning and that it will continue to spin unless acted upon by an outside force. That observation allows predictions to be made from general observations to specifics. The same applies to the theory of evolution, it allows specific predictions following general observations.
Darwinism needs to be separated from true science, for Darwinism is in fact an ‘anti-creation mythos’ based on a miraculous event-—life spontaneously created itself from nothing— that occurred long before time began. All who believe in Darwinism-—as you do-— do so by faith-—blind faith.
That is simply a straw man argument.
The theory of evolution doesn't say anything about the origin of life and it doesn't attempt to explain it. Similarly the theory of relativity doesn't say anything the origin of the Universe or attempt to explain it.

Spirited: I see we are agreed. Just as my predictions are from faith, so too are yours. I however, have no problem admitting this truth. You on the other hand, believe that what you believe is somehow ‘empirical’-—within the sensory realm-—when in fact, beliefs, presuppositions, assumptions, ideas, primary numbers, theories, reason-—all exist in the unseen (metaphysical) realm. Yet you persist in believing that what you believe magically exists in the sensory realm. There’s a term that describes this condition: cognitive dissonance.

Spirited: Indeed it does not. In this it is in accord with all ancient pagan mythos, as it would be, for Naturalism is but neo-paganism revised, revamped, and made palateable to certain Westerners-—those who are offended by mans’ transcendant Creator and His universal moral law.
Americas’ founding Christian worldview, which bequeathed to man the most enlightened definintion of man this long-suffering world has ever known, has been pushed aside and replaced by the anti-creation mythos of scientistic Darwinism and its dehumanized, debauched view of ‘unman’, the soulless meat machine. And we wonder why our political class ignores us and does whatever it wants to do.
