草草看了一下,那个list里也就一半左右和化石有关。下面这个和化石无关。
A thousand years ago, just about every remote island on the planet had a species of flightless bird. Evolution explains this by saying that flying creatures are particularly able to establish themselves on remote islands. Some birds, living in a safe place where there is no need to make sudden escapes, will take the opportunity to give up on flying. Hence, Evolution predicts that each flightless bird species arose on the island that it was found on. So, Evolution predicts that no two islands would have the same species of flightless bird. Now that all the world's islands have been visited, we know that this was a correct prediction.
基于进化论可以被证伪的预言多了去了。我也预言一下:没人能从石炭纪及以下的地层里找到哺乳动物化石。
