Oh!!!! What experiment underlies "the theory of "they mustta used ramps" or "they mustta been superstitious"?
What are you on about?
What experiment underlies the belief that we don't need to understand consciousness to study life?
The statement was that experiment underlies theory.
What you are asking about here does not concern a theory.
What experiment shows that unlike every single other thing that affects individuals change in species occurs gradually?
Every agricultural program.
Every live birth.
Every long term evolution experiment.
Every cultivation program.
Members of species X don't give birth to members of subspecies Y.
The borders between species are blurry, not fixed.
This is so because evolution is gradual.
Every individual ever born was of the same species as its parents.
Just like every individual ever born grew up speaking the language of its parents and peers.
Yet latin turned into french, spanish, italian,...
But at no point in history did a latin speaking mother raise a spanish speaking child.
I'm sorry if you can't understand that.
Where is your experiment to show luck, happenstance, and randomness doesn't occur to every individual at all times?
Populations evolve. Individuals don't.
Individuals introduce change. But unless the change spreads to the rest of the population (which takes a lot of generations, which incidentally is why it is necessarily gradual), no evolution is occurring.
Consider change in language again. Say the new verbe "to google".
If one person starts using it and nobody else picks it up, that usage will disappear with the individual upon its death.
If others pick it up and it spreads to the general population, it can be said to be a new verbe in the english language and it will start showing up in dictionaries.
Where is your experiment to show that we even are aware of every variable that affects how, when, why, and in what manner life changes?
No idea which "theory" this is supposed to be about.
You believe in gradual change solely because of the "fossil record"
No. I accept gradual change due to observation, experiment and general understanding of the mechanism of how change is introduced and subsequently spreads throughout the population over generations if and when it is picked up by natural selection.
but no experiment has ever been performed on the fossil record.
Kind of hard to experiment with dead things that no longer reproduce when the thing to be tested is how change happens through reproduction.
No definitions have even been put forward with regard to saying when or where each species arose but you know how.
No idea what you are on about now. It sounds like yet another ginormous strawman.
How species arise is countless quintillions of orders of magnitude more complex then other questions involving change in species
Only in your head. It's actually quite a simple process. Which has been observed, fyi.
You might want to google "observed speciation".
and you believe the entire formatting of all these changes has been laid bare by simply observing the fossil record without performing experiment.
Again, no idea what you are on about here, but it again sounds like a strawman.
Again, it is possible Evolution is essentially correct but there is no experiment to show it
Especially not if you ignore all the experiments.
and there are simpler explanations for all of our observations and experiments.
Do those "simple" explanations involve invoking magic?
