Since it was 3.5 billion years ago, there are no traces. However you can work backwards through time and surmise the direrection . Entering all know data ,you make a computer model to show how it works. https://news.nationalgeographic.com/...ngle-ancestor/
Put blame where it belongs
ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

Scientists try to speak with precision. I, personally, believe in evolution, but when it becomes a "fact" scientists will stop calling it a "theory."
Parts of it are fact.
Bacteria evolve resistance to antibiotics through natural selection acting on mutations. I absolutely believe that because the evidence is unassailable.
When you get into macro evolution I start to get a little shakey lol, though I’m fairly confident in it. I’m even more skeptical of the alleged jump from single cell organisms to multicellular organisms with organs, limbs etc.
And even though it’s not evolution, I’m severely skeptical something like DNA and the genetic code could form from simple organic chemicals, regardless of time or number of trials involved.

let me guess....does Desh think blue butterflies are racist?.....
Republican Congressman Ken Buck:
“We’re at a time in American politics, that I am not going to lie on behalf of my presidential candidate, on behalf of my party. And I’m very sad that others in my party have taken the position that, as long as we get the White House, it doesn’t really matter what we say,”
Of course he does. He is a delusional hate filled moron whose ego is aligned with an absolute absurdity.
Why would he not hate objectivism, rationalism, empiricism, logic, proportion and reality?
They are delusional idiots. They are incapable of reason. It would take deprogramming to make these losers worthy of your time in conversation.

But as strictly a philosophical matter, it’s quite rational to infer design based on the evidence.
Why is that so threatening to some people?
No of course it is not rational at all to infer that. Feel free to articulate in English exactly upon what evidence you draw the inference(s)
What is understandable and lamentable is how some uneducated and undisciplined people buy in to the anthropomorphism that projects the
false sense of human intention upon the natural universe. It's the most important thing to science that this fault does not occur.
As scientists we want to understand the world as an intelligent robot. What your sad religion does is explain reality 90 percent injecting
human emotion and experience onto the subject of investigation.

In science a Theory is supported by evidence, predictive testing and observation, not the more common usage which would be called a hypothesis in science. So, when a detective has a theory, if he were a scientist he would call it a hypothesis, once he has evidence the detective calls it proven, while science then calls it a Theory. You shouldn't attempt to be a wordsmith unless you happen to actually understand the meaning of the words in context.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Do you mean the evidence, predictive testing, and observation supporting a theory and claimed to have proven something that later changes because someone else found different "evidence" that refutes what has been called proven fact? 2 + 2 = 4 is a fact. Something claimed as proven fact doesn't change. If it does, it really wasn't a fact at all.
