Biblical Genetics | Fisher's failure and the dramatic end of Neo-Darwinism @biblicalgenetics8838 | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 19 hours ago.
RA Fisher was one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th Century. He is also one of the primary founders of Neo-Darwinism, the field that claims to have unified Mendelian genetics with Darwinian natural selection. His main theorem remained untested for 90 years, but we now know where he went wrong. Yes, natural selection can increase 'fitness' over time, but only if you make unrealistic and demonstrably non-biological assumptions first.
