Does this article support Evolution or Disprove it?

In summary, a recent genetic study suggests that 90% of Earth's animal species emerged at the same time, implying that life is constantly evolving and species have a limited lifespan before evolving into something new or going extinct. This information has been used by some to disprove evolution, but the study itself does not support or disprove any specific theory. Ultimately, science is not about opinion polls and further research and questioning is necessary to determine the truth.

@FactChecker gave a great answer: evolution/ Also note that science is not about opinion polls, just like PF is not like Reddit or twitter. We use opinion polls sometimes down in the non-science section - General Discussion.

So let's call it a day - thread closed.

1. Does this article provide evidence for evolution?

It depends on the specific article and the evidence presented. Some articles may provide strong evidence for evolution, while others may not mention it at all.

2. Does this article disprove evolution?

No, disproof of evolution would require overwhelming evidence that contradicts the massive amount of evidence that supports evolution. Most articles do not provide this level of evidence.

3. How can I tell if an article supports or disproves evolution?

Look for the use of scientific evidence and reasoning. Articles that support evolution will generally present evidence from various fields such as genetics, paleontology, and ecology. Disproving evolution would require evidence that contradicts this wide range of evidence.

4. Can an article both support and disprove evolution?

No, an article cannot both support and disprove evolution. Evolution is a well-established scientific theory that is supported by a vast amount of evidence. An article may present evidence that challenges certain aspects of the theory, but this does not disprove evolution as a whole.

5. Should I trust articles that claim to disprove evolution?

It is important to evaluate the credibility and reliability of the source before trusting any claims, particularly those that go against well-established scientific theories like evolution. Look for articles written by experts in the field and published in reputable scientific journals.
