Um, no? Like TE, ā€œevolutionā€ lacks specificity. I think of it in terms of three separate definitions:

  1. Change in biological populations over time. (Descent with modification, change in allele frequencies.) Everyone agrees with this. ID/YEC fully compatible.

  2. UCD. Some IDists agree, others do not. ID fully compatible. All YECs disagree. YEC incompatible.

  3. NDE as mechanism for all biological diversity. All YEC/IDs disagree. All TEs agree with some minor qualifications. M&C made this all but explicit.
