So, if we watch rabbits reproduce long enough, they should eventually produce a zebra... Is anyone working on this? Anyone? Anyone?

"Speciation is not a sudden, miraculous transformation from one species to another. The way creationists envision evolution theory, a pregnant female ape went into labour one day and a human being popped out! It is a gross understatement to say that this is a misrepresentation of the truth. In reality, evolution theory merely proposes that a great many small changes eventually caused an animal population to become intersterile with its ancestors."

If this is TRULY what current ET believes, then we should find, in all living things, partial structures that fail to have ANY function at this point in time, but are merely waiting for the last brick to be placed in the wall.

After all, the EYE is one of the many stumbling blocks:

1. It is so complex that the odds of random mutations occuring at the same time to form it are so great the Universe hasn't been around long enough.

2. Accumulating small mutations over time to form a functioning eye hits the same problem.

Hey!
 
It wasn't us "C" folks who came up with PunkEek!
 
The "E" side of this debate finally decided that THAT won't work, so they are left with only 'gradual changes accumulating' now.  (Can't have any MIRACLES happening in the fossil record.)
