Evolution is a Truth

"Maybe before attacking my argument...debate is something in which we share out opinions and not on which we attack each other on there (sic) improper ways of speaking." Let's turn to the Oxford English Dictionary shall we? "An argument about a particular subject, especially one in which many people are involved" Source: http://www.oxforddictionaries.com... Not the word "argue" and notice the lack of the word "share". If you wanted to just share your views, you should have kept to the forums and not posted this on the debate platform, where we are going to pick and choose a winner based on their ability to argue and present. And yes, I am going to attack your improper ways of speaking. If you speak improperly, we cannot know for sure what you are saying or you will say something you do not mean. Thus, your whole argument is undermined by your own improper use of language. How else are we to know what you are trying to convey? Telepathy? It is your responsibility to clearly form your speech and therefore arguments, and your opponents job to argue with what you put forth. "You also seem hung up on the way I used truth and how it can confuse users...." Yes I am. I said that in my very first post in this debate. That was what I said my whole debate was about in fact: how you use the word "truth" and your claim that it "requires no further explanation", which you responded to by clumsily backtracking. And your response to my demonstration of your backtracking (e.g. you claiming that you DID NOT say "requires no further explanation" in R2) is that I am overly aggressive. No I am not being aggressive, I am sticking to my original points in R1. " I think you should read up on the fact that evolution in biology, botany, genetics, and other sciences is accepted as the diversifying of species over time and through DNA changes and mutations." I did read up on that, in fact I provided a source listing out the differences of the term "evolution" in different fields. And whether or not the term is exactly the same in each discipline of science is mute, when each of those fields will examine, retract, and expand upon the THEORY (not truth) of Evolution based on NEW EVIDENCE and NEW EXPLANATIONS. "The earth was once thought to be flat and that was true for them. Later we discovered it to be round and spherical, does that make it false in there time? Yes, but with the information they had at the time without any other points to show it was spherical, the argument was held to be true by the limited knowledge they had." Your proving my point. Look, I do not know how to spell this out to you any more clearly. If something requires NO FURTHER EXPLANATION it means that everything that can be said, or needs to be said, has been said. THINGS IN SCIENCE are constantly getting new explanations via new data and new experiments. I could not take what you originally said any other way. You said Evolution is a TRUTH that requires no further explanation. MY whole argument has been taking that statement apart and making you eat your words, which is what is happening. You have yet to give a definition of "truth" outside of your own whimsical and clumsy definition, and you cannot stand by the "needs no further explanation" consistently. R2 you said you did not say it, and now you are saying it means that science dictates getting new information all of the time, and somehow that goes along with "needs no further explanation". IN SUMMARY I have set out to do what I said I would. Make you eat your words about "truth" and "further explanations". You don't cite anything. You backtrack and contradict. And your counter argument is along the lines of, "don't pick on me for not using language well!". And no one could take your original evolution "Argument" because you phrased it so so poorly. All you're really saying (well, trying to say really) is that Evolution is a thing scientists talk about and collect data for. OK? Evolution is not a monolith. Not all scientists agree on the details or even the general concepts. Be more specific in your proposed argument next time.
