Maybe he suscribes to Kirk Cameron's view that proper evidence for evolution should be something that would ironically disprove evolution. Also since he believes that creation was poofed into existence, he expects evolution should happen within a creature's lifetime as well.

Ok, most of you are giving examples of evolving in little ways. I should have clarified this but i am talking about a change of kind. IN the case of evolution some people think a fish or a monkey to a human. Do you have evidence of a change of kinds like a fish to a human, or a monkey to a human.

What you are describing is not in any way, shape, or form what evolution claims.

As a student of irony, I do appreciate it when a religious person, flounces in and demands evidence and facts for something as overwhelmingly supported as evolution.
Meanwhile, they are quite comfy ignoring the Elephant in the room -- their own pet mythology has zero evidence and facts. Just a lot of hot air from ancient times.
Ancient hooey is still hooey.

Called it.
How can you expect to be given facts that support evolution when you fail to understand the theory?

Quit being a lazy asshole and go take a course in biology. Perhaps you could at least be decent enough to be honest with what you are actually here for, you aren't here to learn. You just want to stubbornly say "that's not good enough" to everyone who waste's their time on you. There is a shit ton of evidence out there for anyone who genuinely wants to learn, there is a pretty good reason only bible belt Christians and simpletons are the only ones who pretend they do not to get it.

"Kind" is a creationist term, not a scientific one.

Why would you ever think a fish could evolve into a human?
Why would I ever think an intelligent thought could evolve in your brain?
