Don't flatter yourself, my confidence is NOT shaken.
Changing teeth are not representative of species in mid-transition.
Depending on which direction you believe whales evolved, (land to sea or vice versa), why aren't there examples of more than a vestige of legs?
Did the species transition in a single generation? Across the globe?

Take over here, wouldja? I'm too grumpy for this right now. It was your dialogue, and I never should have jumped in.

Of course it isn't. You've already decided on what the truth is, thus any "facts" that get in your way are irrelevant. Reality be damned, you know how things are!

Why not?

What, specifically, would you want to see?
Did the species transition in a single generation?
No, of course not.
Across the globe?
No, of course not. Why would you expect such a thing unless you are fundamentally ignorant regarding the way that evolution works?

You were shown an example that, although basically a marine animal, could walk out of water on its legs. Do alligators have "vestigial" legs? There is a slightly later cetacean which is about as marine-adapted as a modern sea lion. THEN we get to whales with (increasingly) vestigial legs.
Why are none of these things transitionals? Is it because they are not obviously maladapted monsters?
What does it mean to offer as evidence against evolution the lack of something you call a "transitional" if, to make the statement true, you have to define the word as something evolution does not predict and which no scientist expects to find?
