Could you provide an argument (other than one from personal incredulity) that explains why this isn't evolution?
See to me, The Theory of Evolution is was supposed to be in theory the best explanation of the Diversity of Life on this plant and how it came to be. That is not what you are providing however, which is a good thing to tell the truth. I'll explain this.
You see, If that is your definition of Evolution, then it can fit into the Creationist (or ID) theory with out any problems, because of its vastly limited and microscopic focus, and holds no bearing on if Creationism, or ID may or may not be wrong, it equally so, holds no bearing on if common decent, or single ancestor is valid in any shape or form.
So, given that, we have nothing to discuss, by your own admission, you can not by this limited view even start to say if Creationism may or may not be wrong and better yet, by clinging to this limited scope, you are in effect saying that it is most likely correct. After all, if this is all that Evolution is to you, it fits into all Theories, and none more so then ID and Creationism.
Now why is that?
Because Creationism allows for that very same scenario, and even supports it, in many cases, Creationism supports that what you have defined as Evolution, is all that Evolution really is.
If that is the Case, and this is the ALL that you view Evolution as, then Welcome to the ID, or Creationism fold RedAndy.
In the end, I guess we really do not have anything to debate about. What you have defined as the ALL of Evolution is completely compatible with my beliefs, and even supports the Theory of Creationism and ID.
Thank you for this Discussion. It has been a joy.
God Bless
