The Evolutionary Tree Failed But Evolutionists Still Insist Evolution is a Fact
| May 30, 2012 | Posted by Cornelius Hunter under Intelligent Design |
The fundamental thesis of evolution is that the species evolved according to the evolutionary tree. Students learn about the evolutionary tree in biology class and biologists use the evolutionary tree in their research. But in fact the evolutionary tree is based on a limited, and carefully selected, set of observations. Ever since Darwin, science has… more
