Could it be because he has NEVER had a scientific paper critical of modern evolutionary theory published in NATURE or any other legitimate, peer-reviewed scientific journal?

Could it be nothing more than personal incredulity?
Why are you obfuscating? We await your reply.
What he is saying is that one species turning into an entirely different species has not been proven and does not even seem possible. So he challenged any scientist with an understanding of it, to come explain to him how it could ever possibly happen at the molecular level. No one has ever been able to.
"But about seven or eight years ago I posted on my Web site that I don’t understand. And I said, “I will buy lunch for anyone that will sit with me and explain to me evolution, and I won’t argue with you until I don’t understand something – I will ask you to clarify. But you can’t wave by and say, “This enzyme does that.” You’ve got to get down in the details of where molecules are built, for me. Nobody has come forward.
[size= medium]The Atheist Society contacted me. They said that they will buy the lunch, and they challenged the Atheist Society, “Go down to Houston and have lunch with this guy, and talk to him.” Nobody has come! Now remember, because I’m just going to ask, when I stop understanding what you’re talking about, I will ask. So I sincerely want to know. I would like to believe it. But I just can’t.

[size= medium]Now, I understand microevolution, I really do. We do this all the time in the lab. I understand this. But when you have speciation changes, when you have organs changing, when you have to have concerted lines of evolution, all happening in the same place and time – not just one line – concerted lines, all at the same place, all in the same environment … this is very hard to fathom."
