RE: Heated debate on evolution with brother
The extended synthesis will be adopted when it has enough weight of evidence in its favor over the modern synthesis. There does seem to be some misunderstanding of information theory on the fringes of it, though.

Not to mention it's not really non natural

Not to mention it's still no where near as well supported as modern

No it's not.

There is no rational evolutionary scenario for explaining how a new animal phylum might appear.

This has been explained to you.
Soft bodies do not fossilise well and small or single celled organisms are hard to find.
Your argument that they magically poofed into existence is laughable and kinda sad.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

That's not entirely true. There is the idea of progressive revelation. There is also the idea that churches gradually get corrupted and need reformation. God remains the same but our understanding changes as He changes us. That's just an outline. The notion is much more complex than that though.
