I don't know much about dark energy, but I've heard several debates over the issue of Evolution. I'll look into the energy thing though. And, what you have just said is exactly what I'm talking about. Too often Evolution is treated as fact but you've said yourself "Evolution is regarded as fact" just because it was simply regarded as or treated as fact does not make it a fact. For thousands of years Christanity was regarded as fact. By your logic. It must have been fact back then. But, wait how could they both be fact? You tell me.
The theory of evolution, provided a sufficient change in the body of knowledge may be demonstrated as incorrect. There has been no such change. No test of the theory of evolution has yet been constructed that shows it to fail to make appropriate predictions. If you have evidence for such a test, present it. Otherwise, it may be regarded as fact.
As for the even/process/whatever of evolution itself, it is an observed, undeniable fact. Do you deny the differences between dogs and wolves? The development of an immunity to pesticides? The development of immunity to antibiotics?

And, ID does not deny observed phenomenon at all. Quite the contrary.
The concept of irreducible complexity does not conform with observed reality and subtractive changes. Simple as that. The basis of ID does not fit reality.
Quote:
In fact there have been numerous times where
complex organisms have been found in the oldest observed layers of the earth's crust where Evolutionists say organisms of far less complexity than what was observed.
Evidence.

But by trying to disprove my case you have helped it You said "It was the result of a series of well defined phenomena." you showed that more than one event would have to take place. That is where the statistics come in for how improbable that would be for it to happen without some other powerful logical force affecting it.
Show your statistical calculations. Not merely the end result, but the actual statistical calculations that say it is near impossible for a star system like ours to exist.

I'm sorry but your comparrison of generations to intermediate species is almost comical. By that logic we would be a totally different species from our parents or grandparents. That's not to say there aren't differences in our mental and social behavior those along with numerous other things do change from generation to generation however we are all humans
Homo-sapiens (if someone is reading this and isn't human I'd definetly like to meet them) descendants of other
Homo-sapiens.
Immediately, yes, the changes are not significant, but such generational trends are evolution. There are physical characteristics that change from generation to generation in a progressive manner. If the human population were small, such changes would propagate quickly and substantial changes could be observed in a handful of generations resulting in major differences. The size of the human population, however, and the lack of a major selective process tends to slow things down resulting in only minor structural changes.

Intermediate species and the observation of them is much more about
physical attributes. For example for a monkey to turn to a human (yes I know this isn't real Evolutionary beliefs I'm using it as a simple example) there would have to be species over time changing. A monkey's descendants begining to walk upright theirs to have arms shorter than legs, etc. For this to occur it would go through many generations and with our scientific advances we'd be able to find examples of such species yet there aren't such examples. I'm hearing a lot of people say "But there are!"
PROVE IT!
Species time line of human evolution
Another timeline branching into other apes
If you notice, they show a development from one to another. As the next species becomes more dominant, the previous species starts to disappear.

That quote by Darwin is a direct quote and I can provide sources to back that up. Now, I've used some of your quotes in this post. They were direct quotes which I used to further disprove your point is that quote mining? I'd say no. If you do think otherwise please tell me.
Please state the quote for me. Also, you really did not use my quotes against me. I used the terminology you ewere using when referring to the theory of evolution and here I have made a distinction between the theory of evolution and evolution. I also further explained the quotes which you seemed to attempt to use against me.
