I'm asking about if you believe in adaptation...and if you don't, why not?
note: this is not exactly the same as evolution. So let's keep the evolution debate elsewhere...we all got enough doses of that debate.

Yes, within species.
God built in the genetic code of creatures the ability to adapt in order to survive.

Well I'm not religious; but I'll answer anyway, since I *am* a Christian!
Yes, I believe in adaptation (small "a"). And you're right; this is *not* the same thing as evolution!

I do believe in adaptation. For example, there is a species of deer which lives in the Florida which has developed webbed feet because it lives in the swamps and marshes. Also, man has been given adaptation features as well to deal with the climate that he lives in. Black people have high amounts of melanin in their skin to deal with hot weather. Whereas, in caucasians it is absent because of living in cold weather climates. Also, asian have an extra fold of skin on their eyes to deal with the bright sun.

I think this question is directed at Christians, so I'm not sure how helpful my answer will be. I do believe in adaptation, of course. I have just as much faith in science as in anything else.

adaptation in the sense of adjusting, yea sure. certain characteristics arise from certain regions, but as far as monkeys evolving into humans, no.

Angelina Jolie and Madonna are my role models for Adaptation. It is so sweet what they have done for those kids!
