"The theory of evolution, as formulated by Darwin, is an important contribution to our understanding of the variety of the living world. However, it must be clearly stated that this theory is not scientifically rigorous in the Galilean sense of the term. True science - the kind that Galileo made great - is based on two fundamental requirements: mathematical description and experimental reproducibility."
