When people in the pro-evolution scientific community speak about animals evolving into "new species," are they referring to one family of animal evolving into an entirely different family of animal (eg. a squirrel evolving into a bat or a dinosaur evolving into a bird)--which are examples of macro-evolution?
Those are not examples of evolution of any sort. They're creationist pipe dreams. Like the crocoduck, useful only to serve as examples of how disingenuous, incredulous and/or deceptive creationists are.
ALTER2EGO -to- CTHULHU DREAMING:
No, those aren't creationist statements. Charles Darwin said evidence would be found in the fossils showing a whale on its way to a bear and a squirrel on its way to a bat. I'm glad you at least acknowledge the idiocy of his theory and that you're so embarrassed that you're now blaming it on creationists. Here's the weblink to a source that quoted Darwin saying it. When you get to the website, scroll down to paragraph 8.

Where's the evidence to prove any of what you're speculating? Present it on the forum for all to see.

Based on your other thread(s), you might want to pick up something on chemistry and cosmology while you're at it.

In case you haven't noticed, I cited two school textbooks in my opening post.
