No, evolution could be falsified under a variety of conditions



I'm curious, what exactly would make evolution seem either unlikely or flat out false to you?

Quote:

But if it were to be falsified, there is absolutely no reason that creation must be correct.



I agree with that. But it would probably be the most likely alternative.

Some things are kind of a binary relationship. If it could be shown that uniformitarianism is wrong then it would seem likely the earth is coated with the result of a flood.

If different kinds of animals don't change into other kinds, then it would seem likely that all the different kinds of animals were created in roughly the way we seem them (not including micro evolutionary gene shuffling). So on and so forth.

I guess there is an alternative to mutational change, and that is the panspermian idea that comets carried genetic changes to earth. Although I have yet to hear of any evidence that genetic data has or could be carried to earth.

Etc.

But to date, the theory of evolution by natural selction has never been falsified credibly--after 150 years that's a very good record.



That's because every time the evidence contradicts the theory you A). Never hear about it or B). Evolutionists rationalize the lack of evidence. For instance, the complete lack of agreement between the fossil record and DNA evidence. The theory isn't falsifiable, you can add any explanation to the evidence to make it fit evolution that you want to. Identical Dll genes between insects and mammals? Well...it just evolved multiple times...to accidentally be exactly the same....Or something.

Scientists are not in the habit of believing in things just because they want to, or not "allowing" a theory to be falsified.



Actions speak louder than words.

If a scientist could actually credibly falsify natural selection



I disagree. I think it would not only take the discrediting of natural selection (why would you want to discredit that?) it would take another naturalistic replacement theory. Evolutionists won't let go of evolution until there's another natural theory that doesn't involve a creator of any kind.

I dont need to sit here and defend evolution from rehashed arguements; you need to either come up with something new, or give it up.




This is a fancy way of saying that you're tired of having to defend your theory and you give up...At least that's the way I read it.
