But... They’ve never been anything other than horses. Evolution my ass.

They're talking about breeding by humans over the last 5500 years, which is nothing on an evolutionary scale. The eohippus was a small dog-sized creature 55 million (note: not 55 hundred... that's four order of magnitude more) years ago... so much for your "never"...

However, the Equidae family tree does include the Equus, so you may rest assured that your ass is included in that evolutionary lineage.

None are so blind as those who refuse to see.

That’s just a bunch of fossils lined up in a row. I could easily line up a spoon at one end, a pot on the other, and differently shaped scoopers and pans in between, and claim that the pot evolved from the spoon. As Michael Denton points out, 99% of an organism’s genetic information is in its soft anatomy, so ultimately we’ll never have hardly any genetic information from any fossilized creature. I don’t “refuse to see,” I merely interpret the fossil record differently than you.
