I got news for you sweetie, micro- and macro- evolution are a bunch of fabricated church terms that don't mean anything at all.

creationists have been trying desperately to find a way to concede undeniable evidence, but without giving up on their fairy tale altogether.

No. Evolution within a species refers to the most readily verifiable form of adaptive evolution. The fact that certain survival traits tend to become more dominant, and that traits that tend to be dominant are also ones that are often more generally useful to the species. In fact, many creationist models still allow for in-species adaptation, since that conforms to observable fact and centuries old programs like selective breeding.
Macro-evolution refers to significant physiological or structural changes, and is one area where the adaptive evolutionary model is more reliant on speculation and less supported by observable facts.

Many people have a complete misunderstanding of the word "species" and we probably would be better off if the word species didn't exist. Because it does nothing but mislead people into thinking that populations of animals can be divided into nice neat groups A, B, C, where if groups A and B can mate, and groups B and C can mate, that implies groups A and C can mate, and such is not the case. Really the concept "within a species is flawed" to begin with.

I think your talking about micro-evolution. Micro- is a prefix that means small, while macro- is a prefix that means large (evolution means change). Micro-evolution means change within a species; for example a finches beak may get longer, but it's still a finch - it doesn't turn into an elephant. Macro-evolution is change from one species to another; for example an ape into a person. You might want to get it straight before you try to disprove God.

no, that is "micro evolution", which is not evolution at all, merely natural selection (*Natural selection is a biblical concept, and was first written about by a creationist Edward Blyth (1810—1873), a chemist and zoologist. Natural selection supports Creation, not evolution). macro is the fantasy that says our common ancestor is a rock.

No it's not. Macro evolution has never been proved where as evolution with in species has. In fact Darwin after he published his theories on evolution regretted it and said that he was wrong. Christians will admit and believe in macro evolution when it it proved. I personally know my great great great great great great.........grandaddy wasn't a rock that got rained on.
