I believe that one species can indeed evolve within its own species such as a raptor like an eagle can develop better eyesight over a period of time or a tree can develop a resistance to a particular type of insect over time, however i do not believe that one animal can ever turn into another animal. The way i understand evolution is that out of nothing some kind of single celled organisim sprang and then that evolved into a two celled organism then that eventually turned into a fish, the fish turned into a lizard the lizard branched off and turned into a bird and a mammal and then from that we get monkeys and they turned into people.
This demonstrates exactly why evolution needs to be taught. It doesn't matter what you believe here; you're just plain factually wrong. There is no debate on this issue. Evolution is a fact; creationism is preaching in a labcoat. That's it.
How does this demonstrate why evolution needs to be taught? Isnt what I described evolution in a nutshell? if not where am I wrong? I can see your point that creationism is preaching in a labcoat, however evolution is not a fact. It is a theory.
Islam has killed millions in the last decade, lets focus all attention on Christianity!
