Can one oppose the theory of evolution without opposing the scientific method?

Yes, one can oppose the theory of evolution without opposing the scientific method. The scientific method involves forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, and drawing conclusions based on empirical evidence. If someone believes that the theory of evolution does not have sufficient evidence to support it, they may oppose it while still respecting the scientific method.


Which scientist proposed a theory about how evolution works?

Is Charles Darwin contradict the theory of evolution?

What do you think of the theory of evolution?

It does not mater what anyone thinks about the theory of evolution by natural selection. The theory of evolution by natural selection is the best explanation we have for much of the observed and observable fact of evolution. The theory is internally consistent with the fact of evolution, it is supported by myriad lines of converging evidence and it generates testable predictions in the form of scientific hypothesis. The opinion of no one is needed by the theory of evolution by natural selection and educated people have come to accept the theory.

Why is evolution reffered to as a theory?

I don't exactly know why evolutionists refer to it as a theory, but I do know this. A theory is an explanation or model based on observation, experimentation, and reasoning. According to the definition of a theory, evolution is not a theory. Evolution cannot be based on observation. No one was here to observe it. So evolution should be classified as a hypothesis not a theory. It is only a guess as to how things came about.

How is evolution related to other branch of science?

First of all, evolution is not a science. One of the first rules of science is observation, and no one has observed evolution. We have observed gene mutation, yes. Breeding almost any animal will show you variation and mutation. I suppose, to answer your question, evolution is a theory derivative of genetics and biology. But, evolution is a theory, it has no confirmation. It is just a theory.

Why should people believe in evolution?

People should not " believe in " evolution but accept that evolution, the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms, is fact. The also need to consider the theory of evolution by natural selection, which explains much about evolution, as one of the most well supported explanatory theories in science. Then they would, if they are intellectually honest, come to accept not only the fact of evolution but the theory of evolution by natural selection. " Believe in " is a term one uses when one can provide no supporting evidence for one's concepts and this does not include evolution and the theory of evolution by natural selection.
