And this is a problem... how, exactly?
Naturalism is, IMO, a far more robust theory than the "invisible, intangible, utterly undetectable being with All The Power There Is created modern-day humans out of dirt and spare parts for shits and giggles one day, then got miffed because a Talking Snake chatted up a woman and suggested she eat fruit from an off-limits tree" hypothesis.
No matter how many gaps there may be in the ToE, it will always be superior to the nonsensical creation fable in the BuyBull.
Not a problem at all. Just trying to be precise as to what evolution is and is not. I agree it is the best naturalistic theory we have.

I am curious to know your academic credentials? And, why should I believe you over the National Academy of Sciences?

I don't have a problem with the OP nor does the OP contradict anything I said -- so your dilemma is imagined. As I said several times, it is the best naturalistic theory.
