How can evolution be proven?

Answer 1

Darwinian Evolution could be proven by the observation of an increase in useful information on the DNA by a random mutation.

There have been more than 100 years of observations on the induced mutations on the DNA of fruit flies. No increase in useful information have been observed.

The fossil horse sequence is evidence of evolution change over time. It is not evidence of Darwinian evolution as the horse fossil sequence shows a lose of information over time. Look at the pictures of the horse sequence. The earliest horse has four and three toes. The modern horse has only one toe. This is a loss of information.

The development of antibiotic resistance of bacteria again are evidence of evolution but not Darwinian evolution. The bacteria gain resistance to antibiotics by the loss of genetic information ( The Beak of the Finch pages 260-262)

There is strong evidence for Darwinian evolution in the similarity of DNA between all organisms, especially humans and other sapiens. This is not proof. The laws of information ( Shannon ) have the element of entropy. The transfer of information always result in a loss of information. There is no known mechanism for the method of how DNA could increase. The lack of a known mechanism does not disprove Darwinian evolutions as a mechanism is being sought. So the similarity remains strong evidence for Darwinian evolution.

Homologous organs are also strong evidence for Darwinian evolution. Descent from a ancestor is the best explanation of the evidence.

Similarities between embryos is falsely used as evidence for Darwinian evolution. Hackel was found to have falsified his drawings as shown by actual photographs of the real embryos. The focus needs to be on the DNA in the embryos not their superficial similarity are various stages of their development.

While there is strong indirect evidence for Darwinian evolution there is not presently proof of the theory. When there is empirical evidence for the random undirected increase in the information stored on the DNA there will be proof of Darwinian evolution.

Evidence from fossils, comparative anatomy, molecular biology, and biogeography supports the theory of evolution.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
