Because you want to believe things "adapt" does not make it true. It could all just be coincidence
(Though I am not keen to argue this as I believe Evolutionary theory is an excellent explanation for the change of species over time from one to another. Even with the gaps in the evolution of numerous animals which appear to arise out of nowhere.)
Yes evolution is true. Do not start word bending i never sold it short. I put up this argument for it. If evolution did not exist we would need different variations of the flu vaccine.
That being the case if it didn't exist. But that is not true we have different variants of the flu vaccine. Along side with infections diseases and other sorts of this that need antibiotics over time become resistant to medication and antibiotics meaning they evolved. Simple enough is not? Again generation a set 1 antibiotics work generations 3 4 5 antibiotics work well but not enough generation 6 8 9 + antibiotics do not work and a new set of medication needs to be made. That is the best example of what i can give.
Cue some idiot (I'm looking at you, Steve) offering the "but that's microevolution, not macroevolution; you don't see viruses turning into ducks" argument.
