bill   "..in a sh0rt time scale" illustrates what I say. you call it evolution, but it is observational science in line with just about any biblical creationist position.......not the same thing as goo to you via the zoo evolution story, though confusing the two is a useful evolutionist tactic , intentional or not.
mrrzy, I appreciate that diagrams teach what is the perceived connections that link everything together, but does it demonstrate that it actually does. I think that what you ascribe to common ancestry ,I ascribe to common design. identical and similar, is to be expected. if God had not done it that way, I would assume there would be biological breakdown, but I confess to tentative thoughts on this.
lighter- argument from authority, does apply to you, because you have not presented evidence for the grand theory of evolution, only the short scale stuff which is far short of the evolution you adhere to.
......and of course I can direct you to renowned experts as well, but then I would be......arguing from authority !.
