Finding completely separate building blocks to different forms of life. Some sort of common descent might still be possible, but certainly the current theory would be falsified.

No and is there a reason this is not a non sequitur?

its not the same theory if you keep changing it whenever its proven wrong just so its right. thats such a cop out. if your wrong admit it, dont just change things and explain it away.
Either start responding with some substance or go play somewhere else.
The essential characteristics of evolution have been in place since the Modern Synthesis was formulated. The relative importance of mechanisms is still debated, but the theory has not changed in any drastic manner. Your message has no substance because it is not specific. What are you complaining about? Give me details, specific citations to the literature and how this fits your claim.
As I look at several threads here, you have posted non-substantive replies with little to no content. Knock it off. Post substantively or not at all. Cute one-liners are fine if you are going to actually address substance as well.
