For those of you who say members of the same species can become different but not become a new species have the burden of proof to show what mechanism prevents speciation.

[RodHullIOnceWasHim]

Indeed!! Well said.

[robokill387]

macro evolution is evolution from one species to another, i.e what has been demonstrated. proposing that this can't lead to much larger changes over time is like saying that you beleive in millimetres but not kilometres.

[robokill387]

"its naturalistic and philosophically materialistic overtones"

such as? besides, that doesn't mean anything. what is truthful and what is pleasant are not always the same thing.

Another similar species found in the same regions is also an example of real-time evolution. Batrachoseps salamanders, also called slender salamanders, are also quite diverse. One species is trapped in the inyo mountains, and isolated, and might be extinct in ten years or so. macro and micro evolution are both the same thing.

I love this Video. Thank you!

God is running around with paddles, bashing any creatures who show any interest in becoming a new species on the head so that they fall back in line and give up on their dreams of speciation.

I mean, duh?

[Rockster969]

[jesseakers]

"we used to determine a potentiality for criminality based on things like lumps in the skull ofa possible perp.(this was science)" no it wasn't.

"we also saw the results of modern science from the prison camps of germany" no it wasn't. it was a religious and political agenda which used distorted science to justify itself.
