"Evolution doesn't occur in biology, except for microevolution."

Microevolution IS evidence for macroevolution. What is “increasing complexity” if not a series of small changes? Unless you can propose a method by which microevolution is halted, given time microevolution will necessarily result in macroevolution.

But there hasn't been enough time for macroevolution to take place, even according to the most generous speculations about the age of the universe.

Now you'll probably pull out the argument "well, the fact is that macro-evolution did happen, so that's a proof that there was enough time," or some other tautological argument.

Increasing complexity? Microevolution is a LOSS of information.

Keep hitting the k instead of the i for closing italics tags. argh. Well, one of these times it'll evolve into an i before it hits the FR server. I'm sure of it.
