evolution discussion with faith

It isn't normally called 'micro-evolution' by anyone other than creationists. Allowing 'microevolution' to encompass speciation makes it a totally meaningless term.

​

Can you provide any evidence, ideally in the published scientific literature, to support your claim that this is the normal usage of 'microevolution' in evolutionary biology?*ABE* Sorry my mistake, I see there are some texts which consider single instances of speciation as microevolutionary.TTFN,WKThis message has been edited by Wounded King, 11-Jan-2006 10:10 PM

So kind is a non-specific term? It can mean any one of a number of levels of relatedness? The 'Finch kind' is a sub classification of the 'bird kind'? Put like this it just sounds like a linnean system with all of the taxonomic levels changed to 'kind'.TTFN,WK
