4 Special Theory of Evolution There is a theory which states that many living animals [and plants-DAE] can be observed over the course of time to undergo changes so that new species are formed. This can be called the “Special Theory of Evolution” and can be demonstrated in certain cases by experiment. G.A. Kerkut, Implications of Evolution, 1960, p157 G.A. Kerkut, Implications of Evolution, 1960, p157

6 General Theory of Evolution On the other hand there is a theory that all the living forms in the world have arisen from a single source which itself came from an inorganic form. This can be called the “General Theory of Evolution”… G.A. Kerkut, Implications of Evolution, 1960, p157 G.A. Kerkut, Implications of Evolution, 1960, p157

21 ONLY THE TIPS OF THE TREES “The extreme rarity of transitional forms in the fossil record persists as the trade secret of paleontology. The evolutionary trees that adorn our textbooks have data only at the tips and nodes of their branches; the rest is interference, however reasonable, not the evidence of fossils.” Stephen J. Gould, Evolution’s Erratic Pace, Natural History, May, 1977, at 12, 14. Stephen J. Gould, Evolution’s Erratic Pace, Natural History, May, 1977, at 12, 14.
