Would you feel that way, if I thought it was Hebrew?
I hope you realize that no biologists say this, and it makes you look absurd to those of us who actually understand ToE?
The term microevolution was first used by botanist Robert Greenleaf Leavitt in the journal Botanical Gazette in 1909, addressing what he called the "mystery" of how formlessness gives rise to form.[49]
..The production of form from formlessness in the egg-derived individual, the multiplication of parts and the orderly creation of diversity among them, in an actual evolution, of which anyone may ascertain the facts, but of which no one has dissipated the mystery in any significant measure. This microevolution forms an integral part of the grand evolution problem and lies at the base of it, so that we shall have to understand the minor process before we can thoroughly comprehend the more general one...
However, Leavitt was using the term to describe what we would now call developmental biology; it was not until Russian Entomologist Yuri Filipchenko used the terms "macroevolution" and "microevolution" in 1927 in his German language work, Variabilität und Variation, that it attained its modern usage. The term was later brought into the English-speaking world by Filipchenko's student Theodosius Dobzhansky in his book Genetics and the Origin of Species (1937).[1]

I suspect you don't understand it as well as you think, either.I can read it, but I can't write it very well.
Correct me if I'm wrong here:Yes. Because there isn’t evidence for THAT claim either.... even in your own Bible.
Do you consider evolution from a single cell oganism to a multicell marcoevolution.
Scientists Have Witnessed a Single-Celled Algae Evolve Into a Multicellular Organism
As biophysicist Dr. Lee Spetner explains, “All of the mutations that have been examined on a molecular level show that the organism has lost information and not gained it.” (“From a Frog to a Prince,” documentary by Keziah Films, 1998)...
As Dr. Spetner again explains, “I really do not believe that the neo-Darwinian model can account for large-scale evolution [i.e., macroevolution]. What they really can’t account for is the buildup of information. …And not only is it improbable on the mathematical level, that is, theoretically, but experimentally one has not found a single mutation that one can point at that actually adds information. In fact, every beneficial mutation that I have seen reduces the information, it loses information.” (Ibid.)

Well you're certainly entitled to my opinion.I suspect you don't understand it as well as you think, either.

Are you familiar with Dunning-Kruger effect? It describes creationists perfectly. To have a legitimate PhD (unlike Hovind’s book report “PhD” from a church), and to then espouse creationist claptrap would literally cause their mental health to be questioned.
If there had been " created kinds" the fossil record would show it.
Dog kind suddenly appears-a wolf maybe- then foxes,
coyotes etc rapidly evolve from there.
Nothing like that actually exists in the fossil
record.
Since this thread has degenerated into what educated people really think of us, I have a good question that you won't answer:Not sure of his mental health ...
It appears you are not particularly familiar with how science is done. Not all things in science are done "in the lab".

Does that demonstrate the capability of natural selection acting on random mutation to account for such largescale changes as fish to amphibian, reptile to bird, etc.?
Correct me if I'm wrong here:
You would claim there's no evidence for Jesus walking on water, since His footprints haven't been found on the sea of Galilee ... right?
And therefore anyone who does say He did, is thinking they are "superior to all others"?
Rather than just assuming that I am ignorant of science...
Large scale?
Perhaps you could define the exact differrnce
between a fish and an amphibian.
No fair looking anything up. We will know you
did, so no cheating.
You are the one who said there is a large
scale change. So tell us about it.

I agree.I believe it's only young earth creationists who suppose rapid evolution of species from created kinds, because their understanding of Biblical chronology requires it.
Old earth creationists, on the other hand, look at the fossil record for what it is, long periods of stasis followed by the abrupt appearance of new forms of life.
You are invited to show you are not ignorant by telling
us about the "large scale" change from fish to amphibian.
Go ahead.

All I said was "keep looking".No one says you are disallowed from having your beliefs but by the same token don’t command others to provide hard evidence as if that is a weakness of theirs thus making yours somehow superior.
Fair enough.
The only alternative I can suggest then, is to keep looking.
Maybe if you dig down another 10 feet or so, you'll find a correlated layer.
You tell me how natural selection acting on random mutation could account for it.
