That doesn't go to why a creature who has found it's nitch in it's respective environment can produce the diversity of life we see in such a short period of time.

You seem to believe these things can happen at a rapid clip, despite the evidence in that there were many mass extinctions, which shut down the majority of the long drawn out changes that could lead to what we see today.

Utter foolishness by any stretch of the imagination. This evidence clearly goes to the fact that there has been little time since the creation of the various life forms we see today. Why do you seem to have such a strong desire to ignore the obvious implications?

A billion years with little to no change clearly flies in the face of Darwinian theory. A slight advantage developed in an "evolved" organism competing for the same resources eliminates the chances of a less capable predecessor living in the same nitch.

Deducing and reasoning among Evolutionists has lead to the fantasy of Punctuated Equilibrium. Sad really.

You were supposed to wait until tomorrow. Anyway, that's not what happens. The ones who are well settled in a niche don't change much. There are still protists. There are still fish. There are still amphibians. There are still reptiles. This is true despite all of these things having also spawned something different.

Tempo and Mode of Speciation. It can be fast, yes. Extinctions in particular figure in the adaptive radiation scenarios discussed at the end of that presentation. A lot of diversity is lost in mass extinction events but the surviving forms radiate into empty niches and evolve rapidly.

By comparison, the several different massive extinction events we see at their different levels in the fossil record (together with the horizons of appearances for different life forms) make utterly no sense against the YEC interpretation that the geologic column is the remnant of a single mythical worldwide flood.

When you know more of Darwin than a novice in a nunnery you can announce what the implications of his theory are.

Unsupported question-begging. On what thread ever did you lay a glove on punctuated equilibrium? There's plenty of evidence for punk-eek scenarios happening.
