I don't think science should be a matter of belief. The paradigm of evolution is reliant upon several prevailing theories regarding geological dating, taxonomy, biodiversity, etc. And prevailing just means they haven't yet been falsified. Several of these theories are based on observations which are themselves theory-laden, since they rely on mechanical instruments and atomic dating techniques which can fail or just be flat out wrong. Falsification in any one of these areas can entirely change the paradigm of evolution. The scientific mind does not believe in evolution; it makes observations which have so far borne out the underlying theories without encountering falsifying observations -- always prepared to accommodate for falsification even at the cost of the whole paradigm.
Belief is not the same thing as faith. If you accept something is true that means you believe it.
I have to disagree with most of what you said though. None of that really matters, evolution has been proven to be true. And it’s logical if you have a concept of genetics and mutations.
Thank you for proving my point. Yours is not a scientific mind. I accept the theories underlying evolution as a matter of parsimony, not belief. Do not confuse your beliefs with my desire for truth.
