Do you agree that species evolve to adapt to their changing environment every day around us?

I wish YOU would adapt and think of something else to say. This whole post, it's just the same thing with you. I hope you copied your words the first time you asked everyone this question-you could save hours just pasting your words over and over again instead of having to retype the same thing, with no new information.

You think everyone is an evolutionist, whether they know it or not, and Darwin is really a god. I hope you're happy.

A farmer has a field that is infested with bugs.

The farmer sprays the field with a bug spray, and it seems to kill 80% of the bugs. The next year, tho, when he sprays, it only kills about 30% of the bugs. By the third year, the spray doesn't seem to affect the bugs hardly at all.

The bugs who survived the spraying pass the spray resistance down to their progeney, and the bug species has now 'evolved'.

The bugs have changed.

This type of thing happens all the time. Human's environment has provided them better nutrition, so humans have gotten taller, and bigger over the last hundred or so years. Humans have changed.

Are you suggesting you don't believe in this, which most Creationists/ID theorists call 'micro-evolution'?

If so, then all we can do is disagree.

If you *do* agree with this 'micro' evolution, as does medved and most of the creo/ID folks, then you agree with Darwin's theory, because that is all it says.

But they claim they don't agree with so-called 'macro' evolution, even tho the only difference is 'time'.

Because it is certain that millions of small changes over hundreds of millions of years equals big changes.

The origin of their claim is the 'young Earth' claim, that there hasn't been enough time on Earth for that to happen.

Again, I have no interest in disagreeing with such a claim. I find it fascinating Science Fiction, really fun stuff.

But the evidence says something very, very different, to me.
