Lapse into irreverent humor:
On the first day, God created the Earth,
And he created heaven.
I did Grimsby and Scunthorpe.
I'm his brother, Kevin

John Hardly, the bacteria I mentioned completed only a single change/genetic adaptation, and many are needed to become a new species. I don't know enough about bacteria to know if a new species has developed, or if anyone happened to be watching when it happened.

In humans and animals the number of changes that occur before something can be called new species take hundreds of thousands of years. Most people seem to think one creature simply gives birth to a completely different creature, and that doesn't happen. With archeological evidence and humans, we have too many pieces of a chronological puzzle to logically say evloution didn't occur. Each change happened in a specific time period, and the changes were progressive.

Lena, maybe you double-click on the "Submit Message" button? That would do it.
