I just have to repost this just for you:

Well, yeah, but... I mean, if there is Micro-evolution, then there MUST be Macro-evolution. At least, that's what my biology teacher said. And he seems pretty smart.

He said this God stuff is for stupid people.

</sarcasm>

Micro- and macro- evolution are as different (actually more so) than the wind blowing the sand into the shape of a rudimentary teepee and the wind blowing the sand into a fully functioning Boeing 777.

They are only similar in that the same word is embedded in them. Kind of like "COMputer and COMmute."

I read that original post and ignored it because it means nothing. And by the way, any biology teacher that would invoke a deity is horribly misguided for doing so. That's the point: Creationism or ID or whatever it'll be called next week invokes the supernatural, faith, god, etc. And that's the point!

I could be wrong, but the micro and macro designation was bestowed by a non-scientist at some point, and is quite simply meaningless in scientific forums.

Oh, and I never had a biology teacher who believed that sand, teepees, or airplanes were capable of reproduction. But you've already proven you had a pretty bad bio teacher. as RWP is fond of saying, "*&$^$% public schools."
