Negative that, GhostRider.

I may not be an evolutionary biologist myself, but I've read enough Gould, Darwin, and Johannson to know that once a mutation, or pangenetic change (ahh, the elusive pangene theory we all forget), or an unexplainable break in the fossil record shows a change from one species to another... or a change in type, then we have what is called macro-evolution.

Oh, but we will argue that all changes are micro changes and eventually, though we can not observe it, a macro change happens when you compare the original species with the new species.

Problems occur though. Where in the genetic code of any known species can we see the ability to adapt outside of the genetic code? Mutations, you say? Name one beneficial mutation that has been observed in the last hundred years, even on the single cell organism level, that has caused a permanent change in the species. If you can, which, I believe, cannot be done, name one mutation in any complicated organism that is not identified by the disease it causes.

If it can't be observed, then how is it good science.

I'm not saying creationism, or intelligent design is good science either, just that evolutionary science, as it is today is based on a set of beliefs that the 'science' is molded to fit.

Try, as many have, but I will not be convinced otherwise. And, no, I am not open minded about this, just as I am not open minded about alot of things. Taxes are bad. Communism sucks. America is the greatest country this planet has ever seen. God is real, and He created the earth as we know it. These are all a matter of belief. Do I completely understand every aspect of any of these? NO, but I do know more than most. I keep myself educated about much, and from what I do know, I base my faith.
