The new definitions are the "charactures". Those who publish them don't even use them in practice.

In fact, the current redefinition of evolution (as natural selection) is clearly a lie...nothing more than a retreat designed for damage control necessitated by the fact that people are finally opening their eyes to the sheer stupidity they've been presented with in evolution.
You haven't provide support for your contention that the definition of evolution has ever been redefined within the theory of evolution. Laymen and junior high school book publishers may have played fast and loose with the definition and even the scope of the theory. However, they aren't the ones who do the experiments and research in the field, are they?
Why "provide support" for universal knowledge? If there's been no change, we need only to prove Darwin wrong. I don't think too many evolutionists would claim there's been no change.

In fact, we see time and again "that's how science works", do we not? But the only official text available is On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life by Charles Darwin.

Besides that, you said the the people who believe in evolution are stupid. I think that is as much a personal insult as Russell2 calling conspiracy believers paranoid.
If this is untrue, I shall recommend that you be banned at once. In this context, where the use of the term 'stupid' is being discussed, and what has and has not been said is being discussed, such a misrepresentation cannot be permitted. You don't get to blatantly misquote another person's words post-clarification, in other words.

If it can be established to be true, it is my opinion that Russ deserves a warning, and such is for his own good. It is misleading and inaccurate to label evolutionists 'stupid', as a group, and this is well-known. I believe Russ has acknowledged this himself.

I have used the 'find' feature to scan for the word 'stupid' in Russ' recent posts, and have not found an occasion where he said evolutionists were stupid. It would be very time-consuming to scan every post Russ has ever made; I have not done so.
