"Research Sheds New Light On Process Of Evolution

"For more than a century, scientists have concluded that a species evolves
or adapts by going through an infinite number of small genetic changes
over a long period of time.

"However, a team of researchers, including a Michigan State University
plant biologist, has provided some new evidence that an alternate theory
is actually at work, one in which the process begins with several large
mutations before settling down into a series of smaller ones.

"The research is published in the Nov. 12 issue of the journal Nature."

It's amazing what farfetched, factless, facetious theories
these pseudos can come up with -- with so much time on
their hands and to justify their existence (also, to pretend
they're earning their near six-digit salaries).

More pseudoscientific crap.

Indeed, it is interesting though to watch how time after time the misuse of
the word 'evidence'. The 'scientific method' is simply a hoax, made up to
fool the lesser bright ones among us.
