This is funny; you proved right here that you lack a BASIC understanding of Evolutionary Biology when you assert that the word Evolution can mean only one thing and one thing alone. It means several things, and that's why you are committing the fallacy of equivocation when you keep changing its meaning half way through the discussion. Minor changes in gene frequency and expression do not logically prove common descent in any way, not to mention to assert they do is a classic logic misstep as I have already demonstrated. You can believe in common descent, but this article provides no evidence supporting it. I already have my own faith, so I don’t need yours.
Wow, thanks for putting words where I didn't post any! You've just proven you're blind as well as dumb! You said I assert that the word evolution can mean one thing and one thing only? Where did I say that? There may be many aspects to evolution but the general concept isn't too frickin hard to grasp. As I said you are yet to demonstrate you're a highly achieving student in the field of evolution as you say you are, so I was merely ridiculing the claim until you show some proof of it. So far you seem to be talking out your ass so I see no logical reasoning to suggest that you happen to know what you're talking about, especially if seen as you're so enlightened in the topic you disagree with it yet THOUSANDS of scientist who do truly know about evolution think it is the best explanation possible and it is widely regarded as FACTUAL scientifically.
Basically what makes your understanding of evolution so poles apart to the vast majority of scientists who have devoted their lives to the subject?

Both of my degrees are hanging on the wall of my music room in my home, but that is getting off topic now isn't it?

It's not getting off topic if you're stating things as fact by arguing from authority which is what you were basically doing. You were trying to give your argument more weight because you are an apparent 'expert' in evolutionary theory (or at least you seem to think you are).
