Comment Re:Burden of proof lies with Evolutionists (Score 1) 1049
Speciation has been observed in some plants (specifically, mutation doubling the number of chromosomes for some plants has created seperate species that cannot interbreed with the parents, but interbreed with each other). Insects, plants, and even other animals have been observed to go through natural selection processes - not necessarily complete new species, but significant changes as expected in evolutionary theory. Your definition of evolution is meaningless anyway. The key is, the processes have (mostly) been observed.
Stating that the Genesis story is history is ridiculous - why is that particular story historical, and every other religions creation story not? They are not the same. I assume Native Americans or Hindus just didn't know what they were talking about? Even if it is historical, if all the *observable* evidence contradicts the story, then the burden of proof falls on the storytellers/ "historians".
The burden of proof for science is to prove (well, gather evidence for, they never prove anything) thing to other people who understand science and the theories. Unfortunately you don't really seem to fit in that camp. Of course you can't think of a single case where it has been reported, you haven't even looked. Instead you make up things like "it would have to happen very frequently" which you have no basis for.
