I see that in citiing a link, you've resorted to the old bait and switch of the evolutionist: providing scientific proof of environmental adaptation by a species and attempting to claim that this somehow provides proof of the descent of all life from a single common ancestor over billions of years.

I believe that you have misread js1138's posting. Nowhere did he claim to have provided "proof of the descent of all life from a single common ancestor over billions of years". In fact, I am aware of no one who claims to have provided proof of such an event, or in fact proof of any scientific claim at all.

And the fact that we can see planets orbiting the sun, and even toss a few tiny ones of our own into the fray, is no proof that the earth orbited the sun in Biblical times. One should never assume that physical laws and phenomena are constant over time.
I'm sorry, but science doesn't deal in proof. It just seeks the most elegant descriptions and explanations of phenomena. Among these phenomena are the geologic column and its embedded fossils, ERVs, polyploidy, and ring species.
For starters.
