Abstract
This article is a critical examination of current evolutionary thinking, as exemplified in statements by prominent evolutionists. Six points especially noticeable in this thinking are (1) disregard of the grounds of and limiting principles of scientific methodology; (2) equivocations of the word "evolution"; (3) primary reliance on circumstantial evidence; (4) extensive extrapolation; (5) dependence on error; and (6) use of "cover words" as practiced by evolutionists.
