A lot of people in this section seem to be looking for proof of evolution by reproducing it in a lab... I hope this helps!!!
OK!!!
1) Obtain a gene splicing machine. The cost millions of dollars, are enormous, and take a lifetime of learning to use.
2) Learn how to use gene splicing machine.
3)Obtain super computer to calculate genetic sequences, this may cost in the region of billions.
4)Learn how to operate super computer.
5)Splice up some genes from like, some cells, from some animals.
6) Put in a preheated oven, and WAIT MILLIONS OF YEARS.
Oh, yea... About that... Sorry! Oops! Thing about evolution peeps, you can't recreate it in a lab, unless you have a couple of million years or so to spare!
Does that help much?!

Watching viruses and bacteria DOES NOT SHOW evolution. It shows how they mutate.
Evolution is the progression of different species into countless other different species... It is a process that takes millions of years. Viruses and bacteria may mutate, but they are still the same species.... you dig?

No you silly ****. I am saying that it is unprovable in LABORATORY CONDITIONS.
It is provable by observation of things like the fossile record etc.

Or you could watch the common cold...either ways good.
Mutations are a mechanism of evolution. It's generally called microevolution, but it is the proverbially first step of a thousand mile journey.

actually yes, you can demonstrate evolution (albeit microevolution) in a lab. or rather, in a kennel, or garden.
proof? see the attached website.
look up high school genetics. selective breeding *proves* that selective reproduction results in specific variations that could be advantageous or otherwise desirable, and these reproduce further, more effectively.
like the moths in europe where the amount of white and black ones changed and they adapted to the environment. this *proves* that microevolution absolutely does work.
now, the question about microevolution actually being viable to simply expand over time to produce macroevolution.

Drug resistance in bacteria, HIV and Plasmodium falciparum (a parasite that causes malaria), insecticide resistance in mosquitoes, changes in the average size of finch beaks and changes in the coloration of moths...
Does that help?
Edit: Lol, you hippie dumbazz! Sorry but I just gotta say it! Didn't you know mutation is what helps define "biological evolution?"

everyone believes and accepts evolution within a species. but evolution outside of a species....as in soup to fish to bird to ape to man.
sorry, keep blowing the smoke around, might get a buzz sooner or later. I walked that lie for 30+ yrs, I know that lie too well, for it is a lie. And science, not the Bible, tells us its a lie.

Not true. You can get bacteria and yeast to evolve fast enough that you can see it. You just have to pick an organism with a very short generation.

Non-evolutionists are not truth seekers. They might as well belong to the flat earth society. Save your energy.

So you are concluding that this is an unprovable theory. Wait, isn't that what evolutionists say about Christians?

the millions and billions of years mess doesnt add up ... that would put human intelligence at its current level about 100thousand years ago with a population of 35million or so at that time ... yet there is no evidence of civilization before 4000bc .. not likely ...

Notice the MILLIONS of dollars you have to use just to explain "Evolution?" It doesn't take a penny to explain God.

then the genes will start turning into humans, and start walking around.
