I also studied Biology and haven't heard of speciation ever being referred to as “special evolution”.

Are you manipulating, or are you really that dense?

I was not trying to create a term called "special evolution;" I was using an adjective, special, as in resulting in the emergence of a new species. Since no new species has occurred since God finished his creation, this use of the word has to be taken hypothetically of course.

Your tendentious use of the word 'mutation' is a far leap from reality, since the adaptations so frequently vacillate, and thus are not true mutations. But then, you are here to sow confusion, so I guess we should not be surprised.

Speciation: the arising of a new species.

Mutation: A change in the sequence of DNA.

I hope that clears up some of your confusion.
