Yeah, I can show you how clouds create themselves into farm animals too! Ok, so you have an alleged 200 "ify" finds that abe interpreted any number of ways. For one, the intermingling of bones within the bone field can go a long way to describe what theses poofs...er...I mean "proofs" attempt to show.

That's it? That's your obesrvable evidence? And you're gonna rest your entire theory on a mere 200 alleged exaples? Darwin claimed that there would be thousands of such examples! Your 200 finds are but 1/100th of the fossil record. Actually, the number of transition examples should be almost as many at the fully mutated variety.

Observable (it isn't today, nor ever has been), testable (we can't, don't and never will), repeatable (again...won't happen!)...those are the scientific rules for claiming something to be a scientific fact. You have demonstrated none of these requirements that the scientific field demands. Every example of a mutation observable in nature is a negative mutation.

It most certainly is observable - try "The Beak of the Finch: A Story of Evolution in Our Time" By Jonathon Weiner, a Pulitzer Prize winning observation of evolution.

This is too funny. I was just about to tell you, you'd probably be getting a link about the big beaked finches or the moths that changed color. There's also a flower that morphed into a flower!!! Can you believe that one???

Those are just the vertebrates. (Admittedly, vertebrates fossilize better than do a lot of the invertebrate life forms. Nevertheless, there's a growing fossil records for invertebrates including protozoans.)

What's so "iffy" about the two hundred examples I gave you that you can excuse dithering between "not ONE" and "just ONE?" Discredit an example for me:

A comparision of Eusthenopteron, a lobe-finned fish, with Acanothostega, an early amphibian:

A Comparision of their skulls.

What's an amphibian doing with a fish head?
