Yes, this is exactly the point! Apparently Dave is taking/relying on/following the usage of 'evolution' (i.e. change-over-time) with regards to 'understanding' from Richard Dawkins. Am I reading this correctly?
Memes are compatible with a Christian approach to science?
Please tell us about it if so.
