What Has been observed in a lab of one species turning into another completely different kind of creature.?
What new body plans were observed?
I repeat this because of lack of direct answer.
What you may be referring to is micro evolution, minor changes and adaptations already encoded in the genome
What is a completely different kind of creature? Chimps and humans are only 10% different and yet you could say they are different kind of creatures.
But let's say you mean like from a pig to a dolphin which takes somewhat bigger leap since creatures also change living conditions.
While that kind of change happened it would be hard to do it in laboratory since it takes time for animals to mature for copulation and a lot of money.
Maybe there will be some experiment like that in the future, but, till then, we'll have to rely on other evidence it happened, like fossils and genes. Not everything has to be observed in laboratory to be considered true. For instance, nobody ever observed a star from birth till supernova and yet there's other evidence it happens.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
