It seems to me that intelligent design done over time has as much going for it as the above - if evolution was the only way to change species why do we still have very primitive bacteria that have Never evolved ?

This is a rehash of "if we evolved from monkeys why are there still monkeys" question. In the same way, if Americans came from Europe, why are there still Europeans?

they were exempted from the forces that have acted on other forms of life for billions of years--seems strange that any old form including sharks and crocks would not have had major evolutionary change when the Evolutionist tell us that Evolution is such a powerful force- why are these life forms not effected???

Ever hear of a local fitness maximum? Top-level predators don't have much pressure to change. But that notwithstanding, what makes you think evolution has no effect on sharks?

Perhaps you misapprehend what the theory of evolution actually says.

Evolution (the hypothesis) is changing as we learn more of genetics and biochem..I do not think evolution will ultimately be the strong force for biodiversity.

Intelligent design would not rule out evolution for variation within species, but, evolution seems to have weakness in explaining major new species which are not able to reproduce with progenitors. Are we to believe that such changes must produce offspring of both sexes at the same moment.

much like BOHEM's theory of a Holographic universe which is unfolding thru time..intellegent design may be unfolding thru time..it would explain for me at least major changes in bio diversity in very short geologic time periods.. so no I do not refute evolution I just think that it may not be the primary vehicle for major change.
