Would someone enlighten me on the difference between "classic Modern Synthesis
Evolution" and "natural selection" which is not evolution?  It seems to me
that if changes in characteristics are seem which a) are inherited and b) are
causing those possessing the characteristic to occupy a growing proportion
or the population, thereby indicating that this characteristic results in
a higher probability of survival, that this demonstrates the natural selection
which is claimed as the central factor in evolution.
