" The belief in natural selection must at present be grounded entirely on general considerations. When we descend to details ... we cannot prove that a single species has changed; nor can we prove that the supposed changes are beneficial, which is the groundwork of the theory."
-C. Darwin
" As a theory, natural selection makes no unique predictions but instead is used retrospectively to explain every outcome; and a theory that explains everything in this way explains nothing."
-R. Milton
" If an animal is dull in color, it is claimed that it survived because of camoflauge. On the other hand, if the animal is brightly colored, its survival is attributed to increased sexual attractiveness or that the color served as a warning to enemies."
-Donald E. Tyler
So where in the hell does that leave us. The answer seems to be unknowable the Bible is not a literal history and Science is a little wishy washy on the subject. Maybe its just some species survive due to luck. When the next volcano or tsunami comes and wipes out a species is that survival of the fittest or survival of the luckiest?
