How do you define 'a waste of time and effort'?

Posting to creationists.

But for the record, "species" is a man-made concept that doesn't really have a clear definition in biology. There are many living examples of species in transition, in which the individuals blend as seamlessly with their immediate neighbors as points on my color gradient.

We do not need to look for transitional fossils. We have living transitionals.

It's too bad some well-meaning biologist(s) at some point in the past, oblivious of the religious implications, ever coined the largely meaningless and artificial terms micro and macro evolution.

Then post THESE to make your point: not a color spectrum.
