Not willing to admit failure in light of new scientific evidence, the view became the Synthetic Theory (neo-Darwinism), where mutations were added to natural selection. Evolutionists are not in lockstep, and controversies continued. Some admitted that there was no evidence, but hey, there's no Creator God in their worldview, so they proposed a different idea that also has no evidence: evolution happens in bursts.
The cell, genome, epigenetics, and other continuing discoveries further show that evolution is not supported by scientific evidence. They are proposing the Third Way (not to be confused with Buddhism's Middle Way). Sure, scientists have learned a great deal over the years, and have many tools at their disposal. It should be easy to make this idea take hold. Not happening, old son. To read about the latest attempt at damage control, I suggest you click on "Evolutionary Crisis and the Third Way".
