Re: Why the natural selection theory becomes obsolete
Because it is very easy for a scientist or creator of that theory to tell you that the size of your brain is a product of natural selection since all he has to do is tell you that it depended on a million or hundreds of thousand years to evolve, based on the presentation of a skeleton that is not a Human genetic combination
It's even easier to say *poof*, God did it. But that would be vacuous and it would castrate science, no? What's less easy, but more compelling, is to show clear evidence. I'm not even sure what you are arguing about. Even creationists give regard to natural selection. It's not rocket science, it's common sense.
Natural selection does not encapsulate the whole of evolution either. All it does is ensure viability within a species. The weaker stock falls by the wayside while the stronger genes reproduce more successfully. That's merely one tier in evolution.
There's also artificial selection which succinctly highlights how natural selection works. Aside from something as simple as dog breeding, which intentionally selects traits, take for example a crab in Asian waters that was selected unintentionally by humans. Samurai crabs have a distinct feature where their backs that look very similar to a Kabuki Samurai face. Japanese fishermen would pull them up, saw what looked like a human face, and due to their beliefs about reincarnated ancestors, threw the crabs back because they didn't want to disturb their warrior ancestors spirits.
Now because the few prototypes of Samurai crab were not eaten, more crabs with funny looking shells populate. The trait then becomes fixed and, viola, artificial selection. It's all natural in the sense that this would happen naturally, except in this case humans unwittingly demonstrate the natural selection process; albeit, artificially.
