Because Evolution is speculation.

WE see evolution's effects all the time. even in just a short period of time we know that people live longer and are taller, as a byproduct of our evolving. Bacteria seem to be some of the quickest to evolve as well as the influenza virus which is why we need new antibiotics all the time and a new flu shot yearly. Not ONE shred of evidence points to god. Evolution takes up entire buildings with artifacts and fossils, god has nothing. You ask humans to reproduce something that we didnt' cause in the first place, and religious fanatics scoff at the idea of turning water into wine because only jesus could do that. Even jesus said you could move mountains, and yet not ONE religious believer has ever done it in the history of forever. So you weigh out the probabilities: that which can be witnessed in museum after museum, or that which is written in a book of errors and false promises never to be witnessed again?

rofl. Who says we can't?
Tell me, do you really honestly believe something so stupid as to think that science knows everything there is to know right this second?
Honestly, use your brain please.
Now, did you know that amino acids have been created in a laboratory but science doesn't yet know how to make them combine to form any kind of life?
"What are amino acids?" you ask? Well they're the building blocks of life. Without amino acids, no life would exist. They're what makes up DNA. And EVERYTHING living has DNA.
Which is why the discovery was so significant. Because WE DID recreate the environment our beginnings started in.
But, we have yet to create life. Why? Because technology has yet to reach that level.
But scientists are learning new things every single day. Its only a matter of time. We'll either figure out how to do it, or we'll blow ourselves up.
As for evolution, why can't Christians get this through their thick skulls? It didn't happen overnight. Should I type it in larger letters? IT DIDN'T HAPPEN OVERNIGHT.
Evolution takes MILLIONS of years. Maybe you Christians can't conceive of that amount of time but its still fact, not fiction.
There are plenty of examples of microevolution. Things like bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics. Do your research.
Please, I'm begging you, do your research. Become educated. Because this is an embarassment to the human species.

Actually, we are, but you can't see it, partly because the process is slow (remember, we've been at this for four billion years), and partly because most change isn't visible. We are better resistant to disease than our ancestors were, but the bugs have been evolving also, so we still get sick -- but with different illnesses than our medieval ancestors had. By the way, the theory of evolution is now a proven fact (details on request).

Because evolution took billions of years. But 'natural selection' can be reproduced. It's called 'artificial selection'. This is why we have various breeds of domestic animals.
Bacteria have evolved since the 1940s to resist antibiotics. this process can only be explained by evolution.

We can, we see it every day in a microscopic level. Virus' and bacteria adapt and evolve constantly to our antibiotics and drugs.
Larger more noticeable changes take many years to occurr and happen at a much slower pace.
My question to you is... why doesn't god create a new species? There's a "challenge cage" for god to create a new species of animal in that cage to prove the creation theory. Surely this would be a simple task for god.

There is no need to recreate it, it's happening all around us all the time. Get your eyes out of the bible and look around once in a while.

We're a little short on time. Give me an empty planet and a few billion years, and I'm sure I can come up with something for you.
Why can't we reproduce Creationism?

We can and do reproduce it all the time. Why do you think doctors tell you to finish your course of antibiotics?
Get an education, retard.

Why CAN'T *you* REPRODUCE Evolution?
Because *you* LIVE in a CAVE with Fred Flintstone.

Set a teacup poodle next to a Rottweiler, back up five paces and think about it.
