Huh.... Evolution in its most basic formulation is exactly that which
you seem to deny it is
evolution: Darwin defined this term as "descent with modification."
It is the change in a lineage of populations between generations. In
general terms, biological evolution is the process of change by which
new species develop from preexisting species over time; in genetic
terms, evolution can be defined as any change in the frequency of
alleles in populations of organisms from generation to generation.
