This may be because of the deplorable state of public schools or the fact that the micro-evolution/macro-evolution devide is simply an artificial construct of the anti-Darwinists based on the "Clinton Operative Truth Theory" (COTT). COTT is a rhetorical device designed to admit only that which can be proven today. To evolutionists, there is no micro/macro devide. however, the experimental evidence for what IDer's call "Micro" is so overwhelming they can't deny it. The Blue Dress of denying "macro-evolution" has already been stained. The DNA tests are being performed. It is simply a matter of time before the IDer's are reduced to arguing what the definition of is is.
A new KIND (no two people agree on what the word “species” means) of animal is an animal with new kinds of organs, new requirements for integration of the new organs with other organs both old and new, and a new basic plan for life. Producing a new KIND of animal would be macroevolution, as opposed to microevolution. This stuff ain’t complicated and there is zero evidence on the planet to support the claim that macroevolution has ever occurred via any sort of a process which anybody could call ‘evolution’.
Get back to me when experiment proves the hypothesis that one species can develop into another.
