Microevolution is a term - when used by creationists - that is the evolutionary equivalent of saying that the mechanism you use to walk from your bedroom to the kitchen is insufficient to get you from New York to Los Angeles

I like that. Mind if I paraphrase it for my tagline?

I can walk from NYC to Los Angeles.

I cannot walk to Australia.

Micro-evolution -- a fruit fly having descedants which are different fruit flies.
Macro-evolution -- a member of the order of animals known as reptiles having descendants which are members of the order of animals known as mammals.

That's like walking to Australia. Deep Waters. Science has no evidence for such a thing. They simply believe it happened.

I think a better analogy would be the difference between you child being born with a few less hairs than their parents versus being born with fully functional wings. I know evolutionists would argue the wing slowly develops over millions of years so would they just be lumps for a while, and then one day they are actually functional.

Of course we have all sorts of species with body parts which obviously do not work now but will be useful in a few million years.
