Good luck with this one lol, even though the head evolutionist refuted his very own idea they still continue to push this crap and now they have even changed it into something else just to keep the bs story going. Going by most of the evidence that is proof of evolution, a pimple forming on my forehead is an evolutionary breakthrough.
How is that an evolutionary breakthrough? Please, demonstrate to us your flawless grasp of evolutionary theory.

Maybe you should demonstrate why I should put faith into evolution...

5.) If you do this long enough, we will eventually have humans with super tough skin, psychic abilities, vision into the infra-red and ultra-violet, and any other desirable trait you might want.
Do I have this down pretty much correctly?
Only if such mutations confer a significant reproductive advantage.
And given that in today's rather artificial western world, just about anybody no matter how dumb and ineffectual can successfully reproduce, I wouldn't hold your breath.

They have to find ways to make science look ridiculous because their only other option is to make creationism look probable.

What a very odd thread!
The posters here are interested in evolution, so I'd like to ask for a lesson in it. I am seriously asking out of ignorance. Just looking for a little clarity, so I'm hoping you can clear up errors in my thinking. It seems to me that:
1.) Science doesn't really have an answer for how life (or consciousness for that matter) arose from non-living material.
2.) Once life began, the current belief is that cells went through mutations every now and again.
3.) Most of the mutations ended up killing off the creature, but every now and then the mutation survived and continued to reproduce.
[I]charles1952[/I]4.) Eventually, the mutations were passed on from one generation to the next, resulting in a different animal. This, to me sounds like the infinite monkeys situation, except that instead of requiring the monkeys to produce Shakespeare's works, they only have to produce some piece of literature.
5.) If you do this long enough, we will eventually have humans with super tough skin, psychic abilities, vision into the infra-red and ultra-violet, and any other desirable trait you might want.

We have proved it we are related to other Great Apes....
BTW we have seen evolution happen in our life time...from lizards to moths.
If you are from the states please stop dumbing down everyone...It will be the USA's undoing teaching kids lies.
Speak for yourself and stop shoving your dogmatic religion of scientism onto feeble young minds who can not yet think enough about how much BS they're being taught. Evolutionists are quite the loony bunch.
And in spite of evolutionist claims, it is not the same as micro evolution. that is simply an argument used to backtrack and excuse irrational evolutionist faith that "time did it" in spite of the evidence to the contrary.

Please explain and provide the "evidence" to what logical or biological barriers would prevent microevolutionary changes from becoming macroevolutionary changes over long spans of time

That's just it. When you're dealing with facts and the scientific method you DON'T NEED FAITH!!!
Faith isn't required in Science. Save your Faith for your Religion.

Science is treading water; one reason is it will not allow Metaphysics to enter its realm of interest; or the thought that Magick (something else they cant define, alchemy, energy transference or transmutuation by humans...). Old school thoughts of science are stuck in the 'hard school" no room for elasticity or new approaches to old problems that can easily be solved, theorums; some have been solved and published but the stalwarts forgot how to read.
