:The [[Law of Large Numbers]] establishes that populations revert to their averages over time. Children of extraordinarly bright or athletic parents are, on average, not so extraordinary. Nothing said above disproves this logical truth. [[Charles Darwin|Darwin]] and other founders of [[evolution]] were weak in [[mathematics]] and [[probability]], and their reliance on random genetic drift is nonsensical as illustrated by the [[Law of Large Numbers]].--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 00:36, 18 March 2012 (EDT)
::Genetic Drift wasn't described until the mid-1900s. How can Darwin have been reliant on it when proposing his theory? --[[User:RedGoliath|RedGoliath]] 11:58, 18 March 2012 (GMT)
