We were to simply offer a cheerful greeting and ask for a minute of the person's time.
The thing is, everyone in the area knew that if there was a knock at the door at the most inconvenient time on a weekend morning from someone who only offered a cheerful greeting and a request for some time... it was a Jehovah's Witness.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
