First, you would have to understand what evolution is. You do not have this understanding. This might help, but only if you actually have the capacity to learn: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/evolution/library/faq/cat01.html Note that the common definition is "a change in the allele frequency in a population". These small changes, over time, lead to large changes in populations. This is a more generalised definition and is what genetics and the fossil record demonstrate. Second: http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-speciation.html http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/speciation.html Note that the first of these contains over 70 references (just like the transitional FAQ) many of which are to professional science journals. Here is a quote from it: "Digby (1912) crossed the primrose species Primula verticillata and P. floribunda to produce a sterile hybrid. Polyploidization occurred in a few of these plants to produce fertile offspring. The new species was named P. kewensis. Newton and Pellew (1929) note that spontaneous hybrids of P. verticillata and P. floribunda set tetraploid seed on at least three occasions. These happened in 1905, 1923 and 1926." >From this we can see that speciation (a change in allele frequency) was observed at the beginning of this century and you, Jabriol, still have not updated your knowledge. Now what was that you can claimed about me not updating my knowledge? The fossil record demonstrates that species have not remained the same, just as Darwin predicted. Over the entireity of the fossil record, we see species come and go. There is no evidence that these species were magically created each time. There is evidence - in the form of transitional fossils - that the species changed and evolved. Get it now? Now to your "scientific method" URL. Your reference lists these items: Observation As I have shown above, evolution has been observed. The whole reason the Theory of Evolution came about in the first place was because Darwin observed and theorised upon those observations. A massive amount of evidence supporting his theory has been steadily accumulating ever since. Question Darwin observed differences in populations. He asked the question - why. Why were the finches on the Galapagos different despite similar habitats? Hypothesis Darwin hypothesized that populations change - evolve - over time. Prediction He predicted that the fossil record would show this. He was right. Experiment Science has conducted many experiments to determine if evolution holds true - particularly in genetics. It has proven so. The more closely species are thought to be from an evoltuionary perspective, the closer they are genetically. Analysis My analysis is that you are as clueless as you appear. That you do not understand, you cannot learn, and you have not a shred of evidence to support your position, which is why you are reduced to lying and offering argument from incredulity as your only support. Decision My decision is that I will keep on demanding a this list of "colossal holes" from you until you admit that you cannot supply such a list. Get it now? Budikka
