Where do I sign up?

Right here: Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Arizona, one of the best in the country. Take a course. Maybe then you will see what kind of a looney-tune cartoon version of evolution you're yammering about.

Filling in the blank (you should probably also read some of the other threads in this forum for more details - see especially my replies to Syamasu and Philip): random mutation and genetic recombination plus the action of natural selection and the stochastic processes of genetic drift + Time = Evolution. Happy?

***Like I said. Chance + Time = Evolution.***Jet

Brilliant refutation. Positively unanswerable. I hereby renounce my membership in the Vast Worldwide Evilutionist Conspiracy and vow to burn my copy of Futuyma.
Alternatively, you could come up with something a little more substantive. Try showing that "chance" = "random mutation and genetic recombination plus the action of natural selection and the stochastic processes of genetic drift". Feel free to cite the appropriate scientific literature.
