In her Feb. 6 letter “Use reason, not emotion,” Clarice Schorzman doesn’t understand that evolution is a philosophy masquerading as science. The accelerated mutation experiments she alludes to prove only that mutations occur, but they don’t prove speciation, or one species’ changing to another. All the researchers got were lots of strange fruit flies. Even the Hox gene didn’t help.
Any theory has an experiment that can disprove the theory, or be falsifiable. These accelerated mutation experiments would seem to fill the bill.
