Okay, I'll take on the debate. I'm no creo. But I find huge faults with evo'n logic. Apparently, the same evo'n that can create modern humans from more primitive ancestors in 100,000 years, can't manage to change a mosquito over 100 million years. There are fossilized (in amber) mosquitos that science claims to be that old. And they look indentical to modern day m/s. If the forces of evo'n can't alter a bug, how did it transform humans in such a comparatively short period of time?

I'll take a stab at it.

If an insect or an organism fits it's environment or more then one environment, then, natural selection has no place in separating it's stronger genetic traits from the rest. In other words, they DON'T die because of natural disasters, environmental changes etc.

They survive to old age and reproduce, and their mutations are so spread out through the gene pool, that it makes no REAL changes in the species itself. If there is no drive for natural selection, then there will be no drive for a species to change, therefore, it's genetics mutations remain spread out, and have no real effect.

I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong in specifics, or if they want to get more specific, but that is pretty much the basic gist of it.
