So, big pause right here: "scientists are not in agreement" about evolution? That's funny, because 97% of scientists accept that evolution is true. So, um... just factually wrong, on that point.
More importantly, you're now just being difficult for no reason, when you say that we have no reason to believe that millions of years would lead to the evolution of new species because we haven't seen it. What you're saying there is that little changes will never equal big changes- that walking one step at a time, you'll never walk a mile- and there's absolutely no demonstration of a mechanism of effect that would stop evolution from continuing to happen to a lineage clear out into another species. Without a reason to believe that there's something stopping those small changes from making a new species, in a cladistic sense, why believe that it exists at all, other than to be intractable?
The evidence right now points to evolution being responsible for the diversity of life on the planet, and though you say that the genetics involved could also be evidence of a common designer, there are so many problematic elements of the body of every living creature, from a design standpoint, that don't make sense from an intelligent design standpoint, but make perfect sense from an unguided, evolutionary standpoint.
You're positing a designer there, and offering no evidence for it. Why bother?
Oh, and finally? Scientific theory.
