All I have to deny is the magic wand you try to wave over speciation to get it to equal evolution. Because that is all you have. The problem is your faith in the lie of evolution is not strong enough to admit the truth. If it was you could admit the obvious truth and it wouldn't effect your devotion to your religously held faith.

- Creationism doesn't even have that. So, has your lot come up with a working definition of a "kind" yet?
"speciation to get it to equal evolution"
What the fuck is "equal evolution"?
Is this a creationist buzz-phrase I've missed?
Species have evolved at very different rates, the enviroment being a driver of not just changes being favored but outright extinctions. You creationists are always claiming it doesn't work because turtles, sharks and alligators haven't changed as much over 50 million years as other species. That's because they stayed suited or already were geared for slight changes.
Nothing in Evolution sciences claim all species have some abitrary 50,000 year old turnover.
What?! Speciation is the one aspect of evolution many creationists reject, while accepting things like "microevolution". So somehow speciation (just like adaptation, genetic mutation and specialisation) is now not a part of evolution. Of course.
Tell me, if you idiots will accept that an animal can undergo genetic changes, adapt to its environment, specialise to a niche in an ecosystem and even eventually completely diverge from its original gene pool and become a new species, what parts of evolution don't you admit to be fact?
I'm not even going to rant about the fact that accepting any part of the Theory of Evolution means you accept the fact of evolution (as in biological change over time).

Confused?
