not saying god is a parlor trickster when it comes to "evolution", but let us say that the finches of note in the article, all "adapted" rather than evolved, because after all this time, they are still finches....

now as far as darwin's evolution, his theory has proved the galapagos were an excellent laboratory for adaption of species, but not a cross species evolutionary model.

this evolution from adaptation takes a great leap of "faith", pun intended.

Adaptation, at least as it occured with the finches, is evolution. Speciation need not occur in evolution (though speciation has been observed elsewhere).
