(( Quoting... There already exists a highly developed mathematical theory of population genetics, which can predict, in fair detail, the changes and constancies in gene frequencies that will result given certain selective values, breeding systems, population sizes, and the spatial and temporal distribution of these properties. To a large extent, the theory rests on the ability to measure selective advantage.)))
The problem for darwinists is that this attempt at making predictions based on darwinistic assumptions "rests on the ability to measure selective advantage". How are they going to do that? The only consistent measure for selective advantage is survival and reproduction.
Their hangup is trying to figure out how to measure the very thing the model is supposed to predict.
Don't feel too bad. I once had planned on developing a mathematical model for describing evolution myself. Nice trick. Now, I'd call it "new math". Doesn't matter if it's correct or not, what matters is how you "feel" about it, and does it help your self-esteem?
