Actually, that's not what the theory of evolution proposes at all. The theory is that all organisms have slightly different charachteristics at any given moment in time. This part is borne out by observation of any group of organisms. People are taller, shorter, faster, slower.... The theory states that these variations will cause some to do better in life, mostly by surviving and having more (or more successful) children. Those children would then face the test again during there lives. A case in point, (pardon me that I don't have the details at hand, I'm not a biologist) A certain type of moth in england was known to be mostly white, but after the industrial revolution began, it was observed that these moths began turning black. (Not any individual moth, but as a group, each successive generation had more black coloration) The presumption is that the darker moths were better able to hide from their predators in the sooty environment. OTOH, I wonder why predatory birds do not have light blue undersides, instead of dark colors. Then again, I do not share the same visual system as their prey, so I can't be sure that to the prey, the bird dosen't look much like the sky. There are examples, if you open your eyes to see them. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.2 for non-commercial use iQA/AwUBOOgYsIFlGDz1l6VWEQJc4wCgteGaYx/nN0nnQSGo66dRY7d9sv4AoMNj wmUQoV3lLXmsKOaY9d2kIGBv =iBuM -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
