There Is No Known Way to Disprove Evolution (A Message for Richard Dawkins)
I'd like to point out an error in the thought of "The Greatest Show on Earth." First, let me clarify myself, I believe in evolution and I this is not an attempt to attack this theory. It is stated in your book by one of your scientist friends that there is a way to disprove evolution. The example given is that of finding a fossil in an odd time period would disprove evolution. However, this is exactly what happened with the Coelacanth fish. They were thought to be extinct for millions of years, and then someone found that they are commonly caught in fishermens' nets to this day. That is, by what is given in your book, this should have disproved evolution. However, it didn't disprove evolution. What happened was that scientists changed the dates of the geological strata where we are expected to find Coelacanth fish. That is, all we did is change what we know about Coelacanth.
