Re: Another nail in the coffin?
So no, there is no circular reasoning. Evolution is a fact and a theory. Anyone in disagreement is ignorant and/or a fool.Fact = Something that has really occurred or is actually the case (OED)
Theory = A scheme or system of ideas or statements held as an explanation or account of a group of facts or phenomena; a hypothesis that has been confirmed or established by observation or experiment, and is propounded or accepted as accounting for the known facts (OED)
Your schema that "fact = theory" would appear to be self-referential (circular reasoning).
