[QUOTE="Tree of Life, post: 75707790, member: 325007"] I understand full blown evolutionary theory to be the idea that the diversity of life that we see today is explained by common ancestry and evolution. Common ancestry is that all of life has descended from some common ancestor. Some life forms have closer ancestors than others, but all life on earth shares some common ancestor. Evolution is the idea that variation and diversity is explained by random genetic mutation winnowed by natural selection. Accordingly, every species has some theoretical evolutionary history even though we do not know precisely what this history is for any given species. Every species should be able, in theory, to be traced back to the earliest life on earth highlighting a history of genetic mutation winnowed by natural selection. I accept that the mechanism of natural selection is a thing. I accept that species can adapt and evolve. I accept that an evolutionary history for any given species might be theoretically possible. I accept that God might have created all of life through the means of evolution. But because I believe in special creation and a literal, seven day creation, I do not believe that any species in fact has a complete evolutionary history. [/QUOTE]
