OK , CAN CREATIONISTS STOP PRETENDING THAT ONLY GRAVITATIONAL THEORY HAS LAWS, IT SHOWS HOW UTTERLY IGNORANT YOU ARE
Here it is,
there are five laws of evolution, natural selection is one of them, they are a small part of evolutionary theory.
Newton had his 3 laws of motion, they are a small part of gravitational theory.
the difference, theory explains "why"
newton's laws of motion did not explain why the apple falls, general relativity , as part of gravitational theory explained why
now can creationsists stop saying only gravity has "laws"
sheesh
Scientific Hypothesis, Theory, Law Definitions
this guy in the link does a better job than i can
Laymen think laws are more powerful than theories, but in science it is the reverse.
Goddam english language for coopting jargon from one field and applying it totally differentlly in another. It makes it so unprecise! ( and very confusing for those of us who had to learn english)
