Just checking in... have the creos figured out that macro is just micro + time, yet? Or are they still on about croccoducks?
maybe this peer review would help you with that:

macro evolution is more than just repeated rounds of micro evolution:

Great link! Thanks for posting.

Did you read it? Do you finally accept macroevolution, then.

sir I post it for your benefit, to prove your concept wrong "that macro evolution is just repeated rounds of micro evolution."

and it's not.

so post refuted.

now we can move on.

thanks for this debate.

Lol. You didn’t read it... (I knew that already ;) ).

Macro = micro + time, is bedrock ToE. As with anything in science, there are observed nuances and exceptions. The article you posted is a solid article, and comports with all other observed data... that macoevolution happens.

Your linked paper seeks to demonstrate two inter-dependent things:
1. Macro-evolution is real
2. Macro-evolution is more than micorevolution

If you wish to use the paper to justify point 2 you must accept point 1.

Aside: Declaring victory in a debate you have just lost is petty and demeaning. I advise you find alternate means of dealing with loss.

There are no facts presented in this post as I have posted in mine. Just attacking my viewpoint does not disqualify it.

Your viewpoint is just a strawman though. That in itself is a disqualification.

If you want to support your view, you would have to present evidence that evolution actually works the way you claim it would. You're not going to find support for that claim though.

Taxonomy has a natural barrier to evolution this is why evolutionist have moved the goal posts and decided to use phylogeny instead.

Taxonomy is not a "barrier to evolution". That statement makes no sense whatsoever.

I know that , you already said that. The reason why I sent the article is it disproves what you said. These are your citations. Macroevolution is not observed, and thus no hypothesis can be tested with no observation. This it absolutely can't be science. At least until observation is made.

Yes sir phylogeny as I have posted via peer review in previous posts was created as an alternative to taxonomy when discussing evolution

You have not shown that the field of phylogenetics was invented as an alternative to taxonomy, don’t be silly.

Maybe this will help.. Taxonomy and phylogeny

According to the text, which is all we have, I'd say yes.... "You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures" doesn't mean some of the living creatures does it?
No.

What's the point?

Only the top genera boarded the Ark.

Domestic dogs, for example, wouldn't be aboard.

(Unless, of course, God wanted them there.)

“Two of all the living creatures”

“All”

Are dogs not a type of creature?

It seems you die hard literalists can also pick and choose which parts of the text can be ignored if they don’t conform to your own personal opinions, how rich.

“What’s the point” is a good question though, the whole saga defies logic.

So you think a theory is a 'belief.'
And you think a self-replicating robot penguin disproves evolution, even though there is no such thing and even if there was, it would not be a living thing.

Are you actually just a bot of some kind?
do you think that a robot that is identical to a penguin can evolve naturally?
