Yes, but that's hardly a response to anything I wrote, is it? Or a
response to anything I wrote explaining the different meanings of
evolution and the evidence for each.
I'll try again: "Direct evidence" and "observation" are not always
the same.
You seem to be saying that the only direct evidence is actually
observing an event. You seem very hung up on this word "direct". Is a
film of evolution happening, rather than a collection of bodies with
time stamps, all you'd accept as "direct evidence" for the evolution
of life on earth?
