If you don't know the difference between micro and macro-evolution, you don't know enough to belong in the conversation.
While I am now in the military, I started as a biologist. My comments on brain-washing are based on my time getting my BS in biology.
ANYONE who says macro-evolution is a fact is either a liar or ignorant. Facts can be observed. Macro-evolution, if it occurs, takes place over millions of years - making it kind of hard to carry out experiments.
It is therefore a suitable subject of inquiry for historians, not scientists.

"If you don't know the difference between micro and macro-evolution, you don't know enough to belong in the conversation. "
If you think there is any essential difference between micro and macro evolution, then you have been reading too many creationist websites.
"While I am now in the military, I started as a biologist. My comments on brain-washing are based on my time getting my BS in biology."
That doesn't mean you know what evolution is.
"ANYONE who says macro-evolution is a fact is either a liar or ignorant."
I am neither a liar, nor like you, ignorant. Common descent is a fact.
"Facts can be observed."
Atoms exist. Have you ever seen one? Has one been observed? Have you ever heard of indirect evidence?
"Macro-evolution, if it occurs, takes place over millions of years - making it kind of hard to carry out experiments. "
I guess not.
"It is therefore a suitable subject of inquiry for historians, not scientists."
Are there any facts in history?
