When you say "theistic evolution," does that mean you are in the Baraminology/macro versus micro evolution camp? I apologize if I am oversimplifying your position. As I said, I am not trained in this particular field of science.
I had to look it up... That is the first time I have heard about Bariminolgy. While I am sure that like anything else; theistic evolution has many different nuances and distinctions within the group, it normally refers to those who believe in theism and many of the ways in which the word evolution is framed.
For me, macroevolution would be the line where I become skeptical, and don't think the claims are very well supported. Granted for a naturalist, who believes that the world and life had a beginning, I do understand where many of the claims are the most reasonable explanation.... I also do not think that evolution is falsifiable under this view.
You become skeptical when macroevultion comes into play?
Good one... you forgot that as a Christian your not really questioning everything. Taking things as you've been told.
But either way.
The only difference between macro and micro evolution is the time span. At least when it was first used.

Read 2001 a space oddesy, it explains it well.
