Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Are you then admitting that there *is* very little fossil evidence? Huh? Anyway, that little statement can be applied to *any* hypothesis, and ironically, it's one I often use when I talk about God. :) Oops, sorry, I will NOT start a God-exists-does-not-does-too discussion!

It has been observed in modern populations, and explains the fossil record rather better than Creationism, unless your an advocate of Last Thursdayism.

What's that?

(Note my clever evasion of all actual scientific argument through snipping!) Anyhoo, as I've written in another thread, my scientific knowledge is negligible, and I can't honestly contribute in a meaningful manner. Not that I ever did... I'm just a curious skeptic!

Evolution is real, as evidenced by the evolution of balrog wings! Ooh, were there any balrogs in transition, with wings too small to fly with, but large enough to slow them down on the ground? Then why would they evolve wings at all, if they couldn't fly with them and all the bloody things did was slow them down? Weatherproofing? Oh wait, they would, to quit dying from falling!! Sorry sorry about all the exclamation points- sugar buzz!
