You are then making macroevolution dependent on the accuracy of taxonomic classifications.Yes. On the one taxa that (even if imperfectly or sometimes misidentified in the particular instance) corresponds to an objective existent: the species. All other taxa, however useful, and however much and even successfully the attempt is made to give them a consistent sense, are artificial human constructs.

Well then, if the validity of the evolutionary theory depends on taxonomy of evolutionists, then you wouldn't mind too much if the validity of creation depended on the taxonomy of creationists, would you? Oh? You don't agree? Then we're back to postmodern (double) standards.
