Can I expect you to act your age this side of 500 pages?
I believe evolution has its limits. It cannot explain origins. I also believe it is limited up to genus changes in taxonomy. For clarity, then, you;re now contending that the first asshole was wrong, and there is no "problem" with macro evolution or the emergence of new genera after all?
Sure, evolution has limits...but none that you've described in this thread. What about our origins do you think isn;t explained by genetic divergence? Additionally, are you sure that -your- issue is with the inability of biology to account for life..or is it that the reality of biology contradicts your preferred origin myth?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight.

Science cannot explain origins. A Designer created the heavens and the earth. I believe in mico-evolution but not macro-evolution.

1) What is the biological process which stops microevolution from becoming macroevolution over time?
2) How does this biological process keep tract of prior allele changes from prior generations such that it "knows" when to no longer allow microevolution to occur in current or subsequent populations? How does this process "count" prior microevolutionary changes from earlier populations? Does it use a calculator? A pencil and paper?
3) How exactly does this biological process stop mutations, natural selection, sexual selection and/or horizontal gene transfer from occurring in present or future generations? For example, how would it stop a cosmic ray from mutating a gene in a gamete? How would it stop a duplication error?
4) On which chromosome(s) are the gene(s) located which govern this biological process in humans? In potatoes? In bacteria?
5) Would you agree that all life must have these genes in their DNA?

Macro/Micro was a typo. Well gee....that clears everything up.......
Do you actually know what you believe, and why? Can you explain why you believe that science cannot explain our origins, and why it would even matter if that were the case? Can you explain how the arbitrary (and apparently movable) cutoff line for evolutionary processes works and why it;s malfunctioning, allowing for things beyond that cutoff line? Is there some reason that you cannot appreciate these processes for what they are and what they do -as- god at work? What do you gain from denying the efficacy of what must be gods plan, if there is a god, and it does indeed -have- a plan?
What are you doing in this thread, and what do you hope to achieve? Is it a soapbox for endlessly reasserting the articles of your faith..... or do you hope to make a case for that faith and explain it to others?

There is no real distinction it's made up creation bunk .So you can try to deny the inevitable conclusion.

The good old micro/macro dodge....the faithful assertion that 1+1=2 but at no point will adding another 1 equal 3.
