Most people do not know that there are two kinds of Evolution. The first is called “Micro Evolution” and is defined as changes within the species based on adaptability to environnement, lack or abundance of food supply, predators or availability of suitable mating partners. “Micro Evolution” is observable today in many different species as they adapt to their environments and other factors.
The second type of Evolution is called “Macro Evolution” which is defined as one particular kind of species that Evolves over a long period of time, say millions of years, into a completely different species. Macro Evolution has never been observed anywhere at any time. There are no fossils in the geologic record that have ever shown one kind of species evolving into a different kind of species, say a Dinosaur evolving into a bird, or an ape into a man.
I found an interesting article on the MSNBC website written by John Roach which is a classic example of the problem that Evolution has in being able to become viable and true. The following article goes to great lengths to show us “Seven signs of Evolution in Action”. The problem is that all seven of these examples are of Micro Evolution, evolving within a particular species for adaptability purposes. Not one of the following seven examples show any proof of Macro evolution where a species is seen evolving into a completely different species. This is important because the entire point of Evolution is to show that apes evolved into man.
I present the following seven examples of evolution in action to make the prevailing point that Evolution from one species into another does not happen, has not happen, not will it ever be found to have happened. Case in point, seven examples given here, not one of which is of any species evolving into another species. Notice as each of the seven examples are given that each one is only of a particular species adapting to environment by making changes to itself to fit that environment.
“Seven Signs of Evolution in Action”
MSNBC, by John Roach
Scientists around the world are celebrating the 200th birthday of British naturalist Charles Darwin, who was born on Feb. 12, 1809. Darwin’s groundbreaking 1859 book, “The Origin of Species,” proposed the theory that species evolve over time through the process of natural selection. Organisms most suited to their environment survive and reproduce, passing on their advantageous traits to offspring. Organisms that cannot compete go extinct. Though this theory remains a hot potato in the culture wars, it forms the foundation of modern biology.
Darwin’s finches evolve
The seed-crushing bills of little songbirds called finches, which were adapted to various niches throughout the Galapagos Islands, proved integral to the formulation of Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection. And the birds haven’t stopped evolving. For example, the medium ground finch (Geospiza fortis), shown here, recently downsized its beak to exploit small seeds more efficiently after a larger finch arrived on its island and began competing for food. The smaller beaks on the smaller birds allowed them to thrive, while the big birds ate all the big seeds and nearly went extinct, scientists say.
Notice, no evolution into another species, just evolution within the species.
Humans influence natural selection
Is human activity “natural”? Scientists say human activity is indeed affecting the evolution of other species. In one example, the human preference for large snow lotus plants, which are used in traditional Tibetan and Chinese medicine, has meant that only the smaller plants go to seed. Hence, the snow lotus is getting smaller. In another example, scientists have found that human preference for trophy game such as big fish and caribou is driving these species to become smaller and reproduce at younger ages.

Human evolution speeding up?
With more people crowding into ever more ecological niches over the past 10,000 years, humans appear to be evolving more rapidly than in the distant past, according to scientists. What’s more, as people adapt to different regions, cultures and diets, they are becoming increasingly different from people elsewhere. For example, Europeans have evolved a tolerance for dairy products into adulthood, whereas people in China and most of Africa have not.

Butterflies rapidly evolve resistance to killer bacteria
A population of tropical butterflies on a South Pacific island evolved resistance to a killer bacteria in the span of a single year — a blink of the eye in evolutionary time. The bacteria infects females and selectively kills males before they hatch. The strategy reduced male Blue Moon butterflies to just 1 percent of the population. But just 10 generations later — a year’s time — males made up nearly 40 percent of the population. Scientists said the rebound is due to the evolution of a so-called suppressor gene that keeps the killer bacteria in check.

Toxic toad evolves longer legs
A toxic toad, introduced in 1936 to wipe out a beetle species wreaking havoc on Australia’s sugar cane crop, has become an uncontrollable pest itself, evolving longer legs to help it hop across the country at an ever-increasing clip. For their first 20 years or so in the country, they spread at a pace of 6 miles per year. They now cruise at about 30 miles per year. Why? Researchers found that the toads leading the cross-country march had legs that were 6 percent longer than those of the stragglers. The added length gives more speed, which permits the long-legged toads to secure the best habitat at the newly conquered terrain.
Notice, no evolution into another species, just evolution within the species.
Intermediate form supports flatfish evolution
Flounder, sole, halibut and other flatfish have long struck biologists as evolutionary oddities: Both their eyes are on one side of the head, an adaptation that allows them to lie flat on the ocean bottom while keeping their eyes on the lookout for passing prey. The transition happens in the youth of flatfish, one eye migrating up and over the top of the head. Opponents of evolution argued that this curious anatomy could not have evolved gradually, as suggested by the theory of natural selection. That’s because there would be no advantage for an intermediate form —a fish with an only partially migrated eye. But now scientists have found those intermediate forms in museum collections. The 50 million-year-old fossils, including Heteronectes chantei shown here, have a partially displaced eye.
Notice, no evolution into another species, just evolution within the species.
Lizards lose limbs
Australian lizards called skinks are dropping their limbs to become more like snakes. And, according to a genetic family tree, some skinks have gone snaky in just 3.6 million years, relatively fast in evolutionary time. Scientists said the skinks’ lifestyle appears to be driving the change: They spend most of their time swimming through sand or soil. Limbs are not only unnecessary for this, they may be a hindrance. Once a skink goes snaky, they never go back, the researchers add. One of the snakelike skinks is shown here.
Notice, no evolution into another species, just evolution within the species.
I think you get the idea. Do you see what kind of nonsense evolutionist have been feeding us for decades. Their contention is that since we can see the above evolution within the species, that this is proof that evolution from one species into another species is also possible. This is a pretty big stretch by any sense of the imagination to go from growing longer legs so a frog can hop faster, to growing an entirely different body all together which is not the same species that it was before.
This is the foolishness that evolutionists would have us believe. Carried to the extreme, the evolutionists teach that because we do see the kinds of evolution within a species that helps them adapt to their environment, then an ape could evolve into a man. The problem is that an ape is classified as a completely different species than a man. None of the seven examples given above are any species evolving into another species. This is what they are teaching our kids in school and this is the lie that has been sold to unsuspecting Americans for several decades now. Evolution from one species into another species has never been observed to occur anywhere.
I hope that this article serves to inform you of just how foolish evolutionary theory really is.
