That’s a question you need to answer for yourself. If you have evidence, then you don’t need faith. Opinion isn’t evidence! Using a holy book to verify it’s own claims isn’t evidence!
By the way, it’s not my definition…it’s the accepted definition.

The question you’re asking, for clarity’s sake is: Without the presence of one of the stimuli, can mutation occur?
If that is your question, then the answer is yes.

I don’t understand your second question. You’re asking if you can have change without change…that’s not a reasonable question.

I’m not using a book to verify it’s own claims … I’m using logic and reflection and experience to test the arguments in the book … When I found soundness in the arguments then I edged closer to accepting it … For the areas that I can’t possibly test then I use reason to accept them too that … If the testable falsifiable areas have been true, then there is no good reason for me to take the untestable parts as false.

For me faith and superstition are different …
