I am glad to hear that the panel came to a decision on this matter.  I have a question though and '''it is probably based on the panel seeing a prior version of the article and not the current article. '''

Today advocates of evolution no longer adhere to "natural selection" as the definition of evolution, but rather define it simply as any "change over time" in the genetic composition of a population....

Merriam-Webster's dictionary defines evolution as a "theory that the various types of animals and plants have their origin in other preexisting types and that the distinguishable differences are due to modifications in successive generations." <ref>http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/evolution</ref>.....

'''MY SUMMATION STATEMENT TO THE PANEL:'''

I think the above current version gives a concise and adequate explanation of the theory of evolution and Aschlafly concurrs.  I am hoping that the panel agrees and that they based their statement above based on a prior version they read.

The above is actually non-sensical. No scientist equates natural selection with evolution.  Natural selection is ''one'' of the processes that drives evolution, hence the need for a well written summary of the scientific aspect of the article.  I cannot really participate in the Creationist part, as I am no expert, and it needs to be well written by one of the many experts here.  Please feel free to refer to [[Basic Theory of Evolution]].  Thanks for your time.--[[User:palmd001|PalMD]]<sup>[[User_talk:palmd001|talk]]</sup> 18:36, 9 April 2007 (EDT)
