In your post #285 your wrote: Macro-evolution (species changing into another species) Now if you accept that species can change into another species (ie one species of salamander changing into another species of salamander), then you accept macroevolution. You asked: You have any species in the process of becoming another species while we speak? I replied with the salamander example. You answered "salamanders are still amphibeans". Yes that is true, but beside the point. You specifically asked for change from one species to another, not change across higher categories like amphibeans to something else. When the bird becomes a reptile, then you have proof of Macro evolution. But you could just shift the goalposts again and claim "but they're still vertebrates" Oh, you understand very well what we are saying. Each anti-evolutionist seems to have their own definitions for things, and a different set of things they accept and deny. The anti-evolutionist position shifts from person to person, and even from thread to thread.

No, the evolutionist wants to pretend that micro-evolution is Macro-evolution.

When a fish turns into a Reptile, or a Reptile into a Mammal, then you have Macro-evolution.

Is the Salamander still a reptile?

If so, then evolution that attempts to explain life moving from a single cell to man has not been shown.

And that is the evolution we are talking about. (as you well know)

Nope. Micro-evolution is change below the species level, macro-evolution is change above. It is clearly defined.

When a fish turns into a Reptile, or a Reptile into a Mammal, then you have Macro-evolution.

And also when one species of reptile turns into another species of reptile you also have macro-evolution.

Is the Salamander still a reptile?

There are about 500 species of salamander. In fact there are 10 different families of salamander.

So do you believe one species of salamander turning into another species of salamander is possible? Is this an example of micro or macroevolution?

Is one family of salamander turning into another family of salamander possible in your opinion? Is this an example of micro or macroevolution?

Do you accept that all salamanders could share a common ancestor and can be derived by darwinian evolution?
