Not long ago, my long time friend, Gregory, posted about his recognition that biological change occurs across time, even to the point of the emergence of new species. He asserted that recognizing biological change across time does not make him an "evolutionist." I take his point, and I think it is valuable in several ways. First of all, it provides for rational, evidence based, common ground. I also recognize that there is overwhelming observable evidence for biological change across time--not even considering the abundant tangible evidence that life forms existed that no longer do. This all got me thinking about whether or not I am an "evolutionist." There is a sense in which I am, I suppose, but there is also a sense in which I am not. Maybe that is worth further explanation.
