I was reading something a college professor (who is also a paleontologist) posted on his website. He said, "Evolution is an observable and testable fact whose predictions have been repeatedly corroborated." If you will, please help me understand this better. According to my understanding of evolution, it takes many, many years for changes to occur, so how can anything be observed?
Please only answer this question if you can keep your emotions under control. I say this because many people seem to get very upset or otherwise excited when they talk about this subject. Notice I have placed this question in the Science category and not the Religion and Spirituality one. I am purposefully trying to avoid a debate. If you are a creationist, please do not respond to my question to tell me what you believe in. I am fairly well versed in creationist viewpoints, so there isn't any need for your responses, thanks.
