Change, yes; evolution......?The most persuasive-and dangerous-definition for evolution is "change through time." Just because organisms can be observed to change over a period of time does not mean that all life has a common ancestor. If we think of the classic peppered moth example, we started with light and dark moths (Biston betularia) and ended up with light-and dark-colored moths of the same species in different proportions. This exemplifies the creationist idea of variation within a kind. The natural selection that produces the variety of living things we see today began after Adam rebelled against God. The concept of natural selection was published in a biblical context by Edward Blyth 24 years before Darwin published Origin of Species. Blyth is forgotten and Darwin is remembered because of the philosophic and religious implications of his idea, not the scientific applications. Natural selection has been shown to change organisms but always within the boundaries of the created kinds. This type of change is often termed "microevolution," and the hypothetical type of change that turns fish into philosophers is known as "macroevolution." The large-scale changes through times are simply dramatic extrapolations of the observed phenomenon of natural selection. This degree of extrapolation has no basis in operational science. There are limits to the amount and type of genetic change that can occur-no matter what amount of time is allowed. As an illustration: if you can pedal a bicycle at 10 mph, how long would it take top reach the moon? Bicycles have limits that would make this goal impossible regardless of the time you have to accomplish it.
