In a similar way, Darwin's primary hypothesis of variation and selection is still completely valid, but has been refined over the decades, and further refined by molecular biology. And the parts of evolution that creationists are usually busy attacking are the parts that have been recognized by scientists as inadequate for 75 years and long ago updated.

Actually, this is often used as a point of attack by creationists. Science, they say, is so inadequate that it must constantly revise itself to account for newly discovered data. Religion, on the other hand, remains the same no matter how much it is shown to be completely contrary to reality.

I wonder how atomic energy woud fare if its science was judged by 1925 standards.
