Re: "Workaday science"

You can do most science without evolution theory. Collecting facts and data and constructing hypotheses of the testable kind is not affected.
​
Like what kinds of science?
​
Can you give some examples of some general lines of inquiry, or specific phenomena if you like, which do not touch in the least upon the ToE?

I don't mean to say that it wouldn't make ANY difference, just that it wouldn't bring science to a grinding halt. Facts are facts, data is data. Daily work on that level would continue it seems to me.

Population Genetics would come to a grinding halt.

I'm not interested in your theories, I'm interested in practical daily science as scientists engage in it.
​
What makes you think that "practical daily science" doesn't involve working with theory?
​
Most scientists do work with theory every day, you know. If you are going to design and conduct experiments, then you are, by definition, testing theory.
