Why are these even questions?

I confess, I'm really not sure what to say to someone who doesn't wonder about questions like these. Especially in a science-oriented discussion.

You don’t question why a Natural process would result in different wing bones

Sure I do. And science gives me an answer: bird wings evolved from the arms of one group of animals, and bat wings evolved via a mutation in the paws of another group of animals. Both groups found flying a useful success strategy. Convergent evolution. Makes perfect sense.

Science does no such thing- they ask you to have faith and they provide you no evidnece to support their imaginary scenarios. At best, all they can show you is MICROEvolving physical structures- that’s it- yet you have no problem taking hte leap of faith and beleiving that a biolgically impossible hypothesis links all species together?

[[Convergent evolution. Makes perfect sense.]]

“Makes perfect sense”? And a specifically and fully formed and designed species which shows scientific evidence for MICROEvolution doesn’t make sense? Why must God have NOT used variety in creation?

[[I confess, I’m really not sure what to say to someone who doesn’t wonder about questions like these.]]

If you can hsow a valid reason to wonder abotu somethign, I’ll wonder, but your qquestions go nowhere really. The diesigns work, they function, and al lthe species you listed have thrived for 1000’s of years just fine. Since Macroevolution is biologically impossible, it isn’t rleevent to speculate on why there is variety except to pursue the relationship of hte variety to the species and the environment- the greater speculation would be how those varieties are constructed in light of IC- but for those bent on discounting ID, the evidences will of course be simply ignored, and the impossible scenarios will be embraced.

[[ bird wings evolved from the arms of one group of animals,]]

They did? Got any evidence showing that?

[[and bat wings evolved via a mutation in the paws of another group of animals.]]

Really? Hmmm- last I checked there is no evidence for that either- just wild speculations about past events.
