NO WHERE IN MY PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY TEXT BOOK DOES IT MENTION "RANDOM MUTATION"

Evolution is NOT fact. Due to the tentative nature of science, scientists do not make such claims.

Evolution is a Theory in that it has neither been proven nor debunked, but has withstood the test of time.

I believe in evidence and the pursuit of knowledge. Those who fear and deny science are only afraid of the truths it reveals. If the Theologians had their way, the Earth would still be flat. I don't understand this resistance to scientific inquiry, if you don't like it, move in with the Amish or shut up.

Darwinian Evolution isn't perfect. No one ever said it was. Our only proof of evolution can be found in the fossil record. And unfortunately, the conditions for fossilization are rare and thus, the record sporadic. But remember, a lack of evidence does not disprove a theory.
