The most obvious refutation of Darwinian theory...

In the years since this theory has been presented, nobody has been able to demonstrate the evolution of a single species from one to another.

They can show natural selection *within* a species, but I don't think anyone argues about that point.

Take some horse-flies, put them in a container full of fruit and lets see them evolve into fruit flies... THAT would be the kind of proof we have not seen.

yeah so some supernatural agent (a big guy in the sky, presumably) waved a magic wand and made 2 people. He then put em on a planet with he also created, but with rocks that were already a billion years old.

Good alternative theory!

Wrong. See for instance, J. R. Weinberg et al. 1992: 'Evidence for rapid speciation following a founder event in the laboratory.' Science 46(4):1214-1220.

There are hundreds of observed speciations. I guess that makes your whole notion about science completely wrong.

Doh!
