Evolution and the Texas Sharp Shooter Fallacy

[Clueless Morgan]

This is what I've come up with so far:

Her:

The theory of evolution started out as a hypothesis trying to explain observational data - that didn't make it a sharpshooter fallacy as continual observations since then have supported the hypothesis.

Me:

… So you accept evolution now?

And no, the Theory of Evolution did not start out as a hypothesis trying to explain observational data, it was a hypothesis formulated after making an observation.  Once Darwin had formulated his hypothesis, he then went about collecting the actual data that would support or refute that hypothesis.  It was after years of collecting such data that Darwin published On The Origin of Species.  And, might I add, his initial observations about the various beak shapes of the finches on the Galapagos Islands was not even discussed in Origins.  The Darwin's Theory of Evolution did not commit the sharpshooter fallacy.

And I currently have this meme copied into my word document - if only to amuse myself - because this is the face I make every time I read her emails:


What do y'all think?  Succinct enough?  Explanatory enough?
