yes we have

No, we have not.
yes we have, maybe you dont udnerstand what is actually meant by this
Science has never witnessed the change from one species to another.
that is what evolution is silly
What has been witnessed has been minor adaptiations for survival purposes
and when 1 germ invades another and takes over it becoming a multicellar creature that is no longer a germ it becomes?
Germs mutate, but not into plants or single celled animals, but another form of GERM.
we know evolution says it cant happen
Dogs do not evolve into cats,
we know evolution says it cant happen
petunias do not become roses,
we know evolution says it cant happen
cockroaches do not become butterflies.
we know evolution says it cant happen
Dawkins admits this in The Blind Watchmaker,
we know evolution says it cant happen
the editor of the Oxford University Guide to Natural Sciences admits it in that book -- Dennett, Gould, Onfrey, Ruse the list goes on.

It's funny...no matter how much evidence is presented, evolutionists will never change their minds...not until Christ returns, then it will be too late....

well were still waiting for the evidence to disprove evolution, i hope the wait isnt as long as for jesus
he said he would be back while the disciples still lived he's nearly 2000 years late ....... youd think a divine bieng could keep time

so far sorry but the only thing you have disproved is any notion you understand evolution
maybe you should read and understand the blind watch maker instead of just copy pasting other peoples quote mines and fale representations of it
ive got a copy if you want to borrow it

You all need to be better thinkers than this, but then you BELIEVE in evolution so it's probably not likely that you will think in scientific terms

I understand it quite well thank you, since I was required to take 3 philosophy of science classes (all A's, thank you) and 3 biology classes, including one specifically on the history of the theory of evolution (all A's, thank you). You keep on quoting the "popularist" books on evolution, while I have had to "data mine" the Lexus-Nexus database for peer-reviewed articles. Makes me wonder what your credentials are for pontificating?
feel free to point me towards and scientific peer reviewed litrature that says this should be happening as a cause of evolution?

Science has never witnessed the change from one species to another.

The Biological Species Concept
Over the last few decades the theoretically preeminent species definition has been the biological species concept (BSC). This concept defines a species as a reproductive community.
5.3.1 Drosophila paulistorum
Dobzhansky and Pavlovsky (1971) reported a speciation event that occurred in a laboratory culture of Drosophila paulistorum sometime between 1958 and 1963. The culture was descended from a single inseminated female that was captured in the Llanos of Colombia. In 1958 this strain produced fertile hybrids when crossed with conspecifics of different strains from Orinocan. From 1963 onward crosses with Orinocan strains produced only sterile males. Initially no assortative mating or behavioral isolation was seen between the Llanos strain and the Orinocan strains. Later on Dobzhansky produced assortative mating (Dobzhansky 1972).

Coloniality in Chlorella vulgaris
Boraas (1983) reported the induction of multicellularity in a strain of Chlorella pyrenoidosa (since reclassified as C. vulgaris) by predation. He was growing the unicellular green alga in the first stage of a two stage continuous culture system as for food for a flagellate predator, Ochromonas sp., that was growing in the second stage. Due to the failure of a pump, flagellates washed back into the first stage. Within five days a colonial form of the Chlorella appeared. It rapidly came to dominate the culture. The colony size ranged from 4 cells to 32 cells. Eventually it stabilized at 8 cells. This colonial form has persisted in culture for about a decade. The new form has been keyed out using a number of algal taxonomic keys. They key out now as being in the genus Coelosphaerium, which is in a different family from Chlorella.
i cant think of any either

no we accept it based on impiracal multi supported testable predictable proven evidence

Sorry, but no dice. Archaeopteryx is a fully formed species of bird (scientists dropped the idea of Archaeopteryx being a missing link 20 years ago in peer reviewed literature, even though popular literature still calls it such).
the arm is more dinosaur like then avarian in characteristics
began to form into a wing it would have to pass through a stage where the arm would have been a hindrance to its survival, because it couldn’t be used to grab food or defend itself,
with an average 3% fossilifiction process the number is drastically reduced, were lucky to have the millions of fossils from thousands of species we do
were true there should be MILLIONS of these fossils.

Oh? And your comment about Christians?
i do understand and can only form a conclusion by thier replies and thoughts the same with you
Your entitled to your opinion about others, but the Truth is you are not capable of knowing with absolute certainty the honesty of any individual, OT, Christian or otherwise.
When you understand that, then you will be honest with yourself.
were working on it
Peace
