7 Animals that are Evolving Right Before Our Eyes

But if they claim that natural selection isn't part of evolution, then they're being willfully stupid. Take the elephant example, for instance. Let's say that poachers eventually kill all the elephants with tusks and all the tuskless elephants remain. Poaching then stops because nobody wants a tuskless elephant. Elephants breed & thrive without tusks. That's evolution. Granted, it's not the only way evolution happens, but one of the most important. True, you still have an elephant, only sans tusks, but who knows what that elephant will become hundreds of thousands of years in the future?
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
