I do read books in areas that interest me, I've enjoyed five Charles Dickens novels this year and probably will read another by the end of the year. Until you observe one species change to another you will have never seen evolution.

That's how I know you don't understand what evolution is.
If I did see one species change into another, it would defy everything we know about genetic inheritance.
You don't even know enough about it to ask the right questions, man!
(P.S. - Dickens is awesome.)
Yes he is, I've enjoyed each book.
I understand that evolution (if it were true) is far more complicated than any simple explanation or question. As for asking the right questions, I already have the answers I need. The smallest of organisms haven't been observed changing and they probably would be the first to do so and if they did what would it be, could you tell me what species they would become. I do not think you would have any idea, so if it happened what would the new species be, a newly discovered species or an evolved one, how would you possibly know for certain unless you observed it through the whole of the process.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
