I keep on hearing this argument: "microevolution is real, macroevolution is false".
Odd, because macroevolution is merely the result of a lot of microevolution over a long period of time.
Do Creationists see some magical biological or logical barriers that prevent microevolution from becoming macroevolution? Or do they simply deny the existence of time?

It pretty much boils down to theists being overwhelmed by the size of things that are large. "Wow, this mountain is so big it MUST have been created by a god or something! It's just too darn big to have come about any other way!"

Well, man instituted a time reference so one could argue that till the cows come home. God gave us seasons and we mark it to death with time.
I would disagree with you that Micro is Macro over time though. I could throw you a bone and say mutation makes the Macro possible but I do not believe that. If evolution as you described it was real we should see some example of it going on in nature as we speak.
Also, should we not see more hybrid species? Ones that are caught in the throws of change? Surely there would be more than one?
But, apes are still just that, other critters seem to be content with micro changes and no Macro as far as the eye can see.
But, I guess time will tell.

i do no longer one hundred% disagree with you, yet please submit to in recommendations that "dark count," besides as "dark potential," is a filler term that we are utilising till we've some thought as to what it certainly is. we can purely tell that some thing is doing some thing that doesn't extra healthful our observations and expertise. For all the info we've, dark count might desire to be something from an ordinary, dense particle that we've in no way considered before to a gravitational anomaly that for the duration of basic terms happens on a grand scale. once you start up assuming all of us comprehend extra advantageous than we do, you grow to be purely as undesirable because of the fact the creationists which you criticize.

Truthfully, I don't believe those 'creationists' who spout this stuff off here have a clue about it. I'm quite sure they've read some book or website that tries to argue this point, and they just regurgitate it back as if they actually understand it.
It's how the majority of christians operate when it comes to the bible anyway. what makes you think they'll actually study science if they won't study "God's Word"?

What does time have to do with micro evolution--Micro is Micro. Is hypothesis no longer part of evolution--YES--science says without evidence a theory is a theory and evolution has not proof of a beginning. That is a fact all over the world.

No. Time is sandwiched in between the two sides of eternity -- past and future.

FYI There is no such thing as time, it is a man made tool to measure change, not a creationist.

I completely deny all evolution. Evolution is one of the biggest long terms scams running.
