Anyway, the very first evidence is a bait and switch. The fundamental unity of life is not a prediction of macroevolution. It depends on the assumption that there is one and only one instance of abiogenesis. A different kind of life could be the result of a second instance of abiogenesis and would not contradict macroevolution.
I forgot about this bit of circularity in the first supposed evidence:
Quote:Based solely on the theory of common descent and the genetics of known organisms, we strongly predict that we will never find any modern species from known phyla on this Earth with a foreign, non-nucleic acid genetic material.Well, yeah, as something with foreign, non-nucleic acid genetic material would by definition not be from a known phylum.
So, he admits to having been shown this same link multiple times, and is what, just ignoring the information?
What the hell?
