Pleas from a YEC

Seriously? Do you think that evolution is dogs giving birth to cats?

This process is a very lengthy one, and humans have only been around for a relatively short period of time. We aren't suddenly going to evolve into a new species, but then, evolution never states that we might.

I didn't say it's not lengthy, I said it takes place primarily in the organism and not in the genetic code. How do you explain the human brain having 100 trillion connections from 20,000 genes? It's impossible to make a blueprint that complicated in just 20,000 genes - it cannot be done. We know for a FACT that the human brain builds those connections through learning which is not in itself genetic. Ie, we're provided with a brain that has the capability if programmed correctly to use our eyes, and we're provided with our eyes, but we do the programming ourselves - from the time we're born and continue refining the system until at least age 5 or so (maybe a bit later actually), DNA doesn't do that part. It takes 5 years (or more) of learning to build the neurological network for that aspect of the brain.

Furthermore we have schools for education - do you think there's a difference between a person who's completed secondary education and one that never went to school? How big a difference would you say would that environmental change have? More than the difference between two people the same age with 60 mutations and countless many different actual genes? Case in point.
