For Creationists.

Most of you believe in micro evolution. So for those of you that do, you must understand all macro evolution is is simply micro evolution that has accumulated. In other words its simply small changes time. Think of it like the gray scale on your TV. Can you point to one block and say this is where black became white? Of course not
Not that I have clear that up on to the question at hand. If micro evolution is true and the changes occur, then what is the mechanism that stops resets the changes so as too stop a change of kinds?
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

No, no. Ray Comfort tells them to demand a crocoduck.
Suggesting 'murricans embrace science is like asking them to embrace syphillis.

Well embracing syphilis is easy. After all they do say "A night with Venus, a life time with mercury."

It should be obvious that you hit a genetic wall which is intrinsic in all living things that you do not cross.
Your cohorts have been trying to cross it for a long time with no success.
Time to wake up.

What genetic wall. I have seen videos of someone holding up a progression of skulls of Humans and other apes, and asking people which ones are definitely Human, and which ones are definitely some other ape. Most people have differing views when it comes to some skulls in the middle, because the differences are smaller. given enough time, you have dinosaurs turning into birds. A bipedal reptile turning into an avian. We know that feathers are modified scales. We know that we share enough similarities with chimps and gorillas, that we are put in the same group as them. Great Apes. We just happened to have lost most of our hair, possibly due to a semi aquatic stage, and our brains got bigger.

Not that I expect any of our creationist buddies to read it, but here's what evolution is about. In this case, the common ancestor and the differences between humans and african apes.

Just to prevent the all too common, but fundamentally stupid question of why there are still apes.

WHY is it obvious? Where in the literature is the genetic wall that prevents further change?
When someone tells me that something is or should be 'obvious', alarm bells go off that tell me someone hasn't done their reading assignments.

Hi Brian,
Did the part of my quote where I said, "Your cohorts have been trying to cross..
for a long time" pass your notice.
These experiments have been ongoing for how long?
A hundred years maybe?
Trying (by application of intellect -NOT chance) to cross the genetic limits of
"AFTER THEIR KIND" (or within each kind of biological critter) To NO avail.
How many times do you strike out before the truth dawns on one that the whole shebang is a lie- a deception by the willing for the willing.

To which I reply with one simple word: READ

That's science, an alien concept, I know.
