For those that state that evolution is "only a theory" they may - TopicsExpress



          

For those that state that evolution is "only a theory" they may surprised to find that gravity is "only a theory" as well. The scientific definition and layman definition of theory are quite different from one another. I would suggest looking up the precise meaning and possibly also taking a biology (well any science really) class for clarification on the issue. As to the misconception that people have never witnessed evolution, here are three examples (although there are indeed many, many more): the reason that MRSA is now a problem is because bacteria has evolved to the extent that older antibiotics are no longer effective; researchers routinely breed fruit flys to see how certain environmental changes alter their natural course of evolution; finally, all dogs evolved from wolves. *climbs down off of her soapbox*
