That may be so, but that isn't evolutionary theory, at least not the
evolutionary theory proposed by science. That's the straw man evolution theory
creationists build so they can attack it and knock it down, pretending they've
destroyed science's only theory which explains evolution. :/

NEITHER of those theories explains anything very well. Actually, neither of them
IS a scientific theory. Both of them fail the to qualify as scientific theories.
