When all life is extinct.
There is and they are. For an example, look up the E. Coli long term evolution experiment. Or see this link for evidence of rapid evolution in lizards: Lizard experiment suggests rapid evolution
I believe everything was created just as it is today. I believe when things are taken out of their original elimate they either adapt or die. I know that when you cross breed different breeds of dogs you can make legs longer or shorter the muzzle may be different or you can make the breed of dog smaller.
Or you can just google modern evolution or something like that. I'm certain there's plenty to find.
Yes. DNA change (mutation) is one of the main factors of evolution.
can one type of animal totally change to another. What dna has been mutated to a totally different species?
Well, there's no gene or anything expressly saying "this is a cat", but all cats share a very recent common ancestor, so all share a very similar genome.
Living creatures never stop evolving. As long as their is genetic change, evolution is occuring. Evolution is the change in the DNA of a population. All living creatures share DNA, the more similar the organisms are, the more similar their DNA is (for the most part).
They haven't.
Yup, and they do.
Yup.
Species are genetically distinct, but that doesn't mean they're stuck to a template and can't change from it.
can one species of animal cross breed with another?
Given that each member of those species is unique I'm not quite sure what you mean here. Yes, there are genetic similarities between felidae. No, that doesn't mean they're fixed into that family for all time either.
Like cats are in the feline species, dogs canine etc.
You are of course correct. But there are a number of laymen on this board who don't understand how science works, and think what their pastor declares from the pulpit trumps clearly observable and peer-reviewed scientific research.

I don't blame you for the way you are but you might want to look elsewhere for your guidance in the future because the people around you are not doing you any good at all, it's time you started looking out for yourself.When have things stopped evolving? If there were evolution wouldn't things just keep evolving? When things do evolve does the dna change too? Doesn't every species of animal have a certain dna that says it's a cat for instance? There may be housecats, lions, leopards, tigers etc. but don't they all share the same dna?
can one species of animal cross breed with another?
Pretty much.
Where does it originate from?
Social bonds becoming stronger as humanity evolved. The stronger your attachment to someone was, the less likely you are to let a smilodon eat them, especially if they were carrying your young.
Altruistic reciprocity. aka I'll watch your back, you watch mine. It was important to look out for each other in order for people groups to survive.Okay, where does compassion come from, forgiveness?? Morals?Laws , marriage? From a group sitting in a circle?
Don't ask other people about it, think about it yourself, use a little common sense, you live in a community, what works best for the community?Okay, where does compassion come from, forgiveness?? Morals?Laws , marriage? From a group sitting in a circle?
Off the top of my head, dolphins are quite aware and exhibit a sense of humor, elephants mourn their dead, animals (including humans) need to sleep at least once a day, and time is an artificial construct anyhow. As for living in harmony, it's homo sapiens who have pretty much screwed up our environment and are responsible for wiping out untold species, which isn't so moral in my opinion. And bigger brains allow us to figure things out and come up with concepts like morality, nothing special about that. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that he's probably better off if I don't steal my neighbor's car, sleep with his wife, and then kill him to cover it up and then lie about it.

No, that's coming from an athiestic, worldly point of view. Compassion comes from God. I'm talking about loving a brother when he does not love you in return. I'm talking about forgiveing when they don't deserve it.

Think Maflower Compact.
If evolution is correct why are we made so different If we all started from the same thing would't we all be the same, same dna, think the same. When and how do we become different with our own dna?
Indeed. Not only do they not understand the basis of science they are also equally ignorant of the Bible.
Wayseer, will you show me in scripture about anything remotely to do with evolution?
If evolution is true then we should all be different. Mutations occur in every generation so that no generation is identical to the last. Sexual reproduction mixes these mutations even further. If evolution is true only identical twins (i.e. clones) should be genetically identical.
