<quote from Real Faith & Reason, vol 2>
And why do some people call evolution “a fact?” This common lie may have started with a broad definition of the word “evolution.” Evolutionists use this broad definition to confuse us by combining two distinct meanings into a single word, “evolution.”
Evolution: observed epigenetic [the on-off switches of genes that turn on various traits or turn them off] changes from generation to generation. [scientific fact]
Evolution: an unobserved story about a one-celled life-form turning into people over millions of years. [made-up story]
This way, the word “evolution” applies to two different things. Ungodly people have deceptively defined “evolution” as “change over time.” That combines these two opposing definitions. Combining those two opposing definitions into a single broad definition of “evolution,” the word means both a scientific fact and a made-up story. And since the word “evolution” has such a broad meaning that covers reality plus unreality, ungodly persuaders use the word to deceive the naïve. Reality is different from the made-up stuff of unreality, but persuaders still use the word “evolution” to mean both reality and made-up stuff.
To dissect this fallacious thinking, we’ll first consider what we can observe. We can see changes from one generation to another, so the repeated observation that changes occur is a scientific fact. Losses of information cause changes like beetles that have lost the ability to fly or species that can no longer procreate outside their species. Previously existing epigenetic information systems control traits of living organisms. Existing epigenetic information systems turn on certain traits. They turn others off. We observe changes as traits are turned on and off. Don’t get scared by the word “epigenetics.” You choose an application for your computer or your cell phone. That’s what epigenetic code does. It chooses different programs that have different results. These different results are the changes we see from generation to generation so you might have a smaller nose than your father or you might be taller. Evolutionists falsely credited these changes to the stories of evolutionism. However, the stories of evolutionism say something created new programs rather than choosing from existing programs.
The eight people on the ark who hadn’t lost information in their cells could produce all the races we now observe. The cats on the ark could produce all the cats, lions, and tigers we now observe. The dogs on the ark could produce all the dogs, wolves, and coyotes. So when “evolution” means these observed changes, we observe those changes. That part of the overly broad definition of evolution is scientific fact.
However, neither of these could cause the story of molecules turning into people. The word “evolution” can mean a story. The story says the genome changed from generation to generation. It kept changing until one-celled living organisms morphed into new, more complex kinds of living organisms. No one has observed this story. No one has observed the story of molecules turning into people over billions of years. It’s a story. Therefore, this part of evolutionism isn’t a scientific fact. So when “evolution” means a story about amoebas turning into people over millions of years, then the term “evolution” doesn’t mean a scientific fact. In this case, “evolution” means a made-up story since amoeba-to-humankind evolutionism isn’t even a good hypothesis.
