More facts...
More facts:
1. DNA Replication does always produce an exact replica
2. Not all portions of DNA is useful to the cell (i.e. "junk" DNA)
3. The timing of DNA is dependent on age of organism (remember Dolly the sheep clone?)
4. Many isolated eco-systems exist with a diversity of life unique to that location
5. Environment change has been observed to affect populations of species
6. Extinction can occur due to environmental change
7. Sedimentary rock formation in a natural setting is a slow process and has not been directly observed either

Re: More facts...
Nosy,
Yikes! How did the "not" disappear??? Did the "submit reply" replication mutate my wording? (it was an inadvertant demonstration of how much difference a single change could do)
As for pertinence to this thread...
The thread topic is "Facts, Theory,Falacy" and an earlier thread asked for facts, and some were given. The post I was responding to dealt with getting back to the thread. The thread had long wandered off topic (too long IMO).

It's Just a Theory
So, here we are at thread number 134 and counting...
If you were to summarize the discussion to date (and what your view is) to give me a simple explanation (not the forum fellow!) to counter the argument of "evolution is just a theory"?
