Rav Kook comments on evolution
Kahane-Was-Right BT:
--- Quote from: edu on October 05, 2010, 12:57:48 PM ---When you say evolution you have to further define what you mean. Because for example, there is the school of thought of many Darwinians that evolution is slow and gradual and determined by the survival of the fittest and then there is a school of thought that supports rapid evolution and massive sudden changes from one species to another.
In any case, on Scientific grounds, I think there is enough scientific evidence out to disprove the Darwinian school of thought.
--- End quote ---
The second school you describe is what any scientist today refers to by "evolution." The Darwinian model had to be adapted to the evidence which shows punctuated equilibrium rather than gradual longterm change. The theory that better fits the facts is the punctuated equilibrium and everyone accepts that.
