People are taught colors at a young age - "this is blue, this is green", etc. But how do you know that what I see as green is not what you see as blue? No one would ever be able to tell, because you only recognize the color through learning and it is not like an object that you can draw and show someone else to repeat.

So much of the evidence what might be called Darwinism has been proven faked or manipulated. What's the REAL hard evidence that evolution is a valid theory? I don't mean a finch growing a slightly harder beak, that's environmental adaptation, not evolution. I'm talking about one species evolving into another; a fish to a beaver, or a pig to an ox, a worm to an aardvark, something like that. I'm not trying to be provacative, and I would appreciate serious answers only without the obligitory attacks on "fundamentalists" or Christians.
