So you have to give us an argument that shows that there will never be the possibility that variation leads to different species.

There is no evidence that it has happened in the past, so there is no reason to think it will be different in the future.

There is no evidence that it has happened in the past

*SIGH* There you go, again...

So, AGAIN:

IF (as you have repeatedly asserted) the statement "There are gaps in the fossil record of transitionals"equates to "There IS NO fossil record of transitionals"

THEN (by your "logic") the statement "I have gaps in my teeth" must equate to "I have NO TEETH"

As this latter set is demonstrably contrary to fact, the "logic" of its construct is obviously false. It is a logical fallacy, in any application.

Recognize this, and henceforth modify your arguments, or you automatically VOID your claims to logic and rationality.

your choice.

Which choice, the record shows, you have now made: To continue on as before, in blithe illogic and dishonesty.

by the way, I find it ironic that one who goes about under the ID of "connect the dots" would complain so much about "speculation" by scientists - are you aware that "connect the dots" derives directly from "extrapolate the line or curve from the individual points of the data set"?

"There is no evidence that it has happened in the past, so there is no reason to think it will be different in the future."

My mother once possessed an unbreakable vase. I was much younger than today and didn't knew this fact. Some day I smashed it on the ground. It was tested breakable.

Things happen without reason. So after your logic we will always have enough oil because we had enough in the past?
