Earlier this month, a long kept list of Ph.D. scientists who “dissent from Darwinism” reached a milestone — it crossed the threshold of 1,000 signers.
“There are 1,043 scientists on the ‘A Scientific Dissent from Darwinism’ list. It passed the 1,000 mark this month,” said Sarah Chaffee, a program officer for the Discovery Institute, which maintains the list.
“A Scientific Dissent From Darwinism” is a simple, 32-word statement that reads: “We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged.”

It's not reality that's important, but how you perceive things.

As (IIRC) Carl Sagan pointed out WRT evolution, The *theory* of evolution is conjecture and logical deduction based upon observation and analysis. It is (per the scientific method), and always will be an approximation of reality, as are *all* scientific theories.
However, that does not negate the *fact* of evolution which we see all around us, all the time.
They are not the same thing and should not be confused with each other.
No, no, you're not thinking; you're just being logical. --Niels Bohr
