Why can't any evolutionist clearly and concisly state the generally accepted
fundamental aspects of Evolution that are facts and the fundamental aspect
of Evolution are theories? I know "the theory explains the fact" but
Evolutionists have the most difficult time knowing themselves what the facts
vs. the theories are.

Why did Carl Sagan say "Evolution is a fact, not a theory." Was he ignorant
of something so basic? A liar? Or, IMO, just being honest about his
(religous) beliefs?

Why does my biology book and my dictionary say say ameba-to-man is a theory
but the talk.origins archive article on evolution being both a fact and a
theory sayd ameba-to-man is a fact? Do facts=data?
