Why the Theory of Evolution Does NOT Predict "A" Tree of Life

-
That is right- the theory of evolution does not predict a tree of life. Yes I know Darwin hd one and only one diagram in his book and tat was of a tree. Howver, as many evos point out, Darwin is pretty much irrelevant today.

So why doesn't the theory of evolution predict a tree of life? Because it doesn't say anything about the origins of life. The point being is that you only get one tree from one seed- be that one organism or possibly from a population of clones.

If you cannot say anything about the origin of life can you make any valid predictions of what happens after? I say no but Iam willing to hear other people's point(s) of view.

  1. Joe,
    What does "Intelligent Design" predict about the origin of life?

    "It was designed"?

  4. What does that have to do with the topic of this thread?

    I have very few SIMPLE RULES for my blog- one is stay on-topic. Another is defend/ support your position.

    You seem incapable of doing either.
