Evolution is directly testable and it has been directly observed.

And even if you are still misspeaking after all these years and calling speciation “evolution” - that too has been observed and is absolutely testable and predictable.

One need not see a star form from beginning to end to utilize the theory that stars form through gravity and nuclear fusion and make testable predictions based upon it.

One need not see the Grand Canyon form to know that erosion is both necessary and sufficient to explain its formation and make testable predictions based upon it.

One need not see the Himalayas rise up into mountains to know and understand the forces causing it and make testable predictions based upon it.

And it IS different than the offering of a religion in that it is testable, useful, and explanatory and based upon known physical means rather than miraculous presupposition that is absolutely USELESS.

Well then, you must be older than Methusaleh to have "observed" this (i.e., macroevolution) directly.

Congratulations on your late old age! This would make you — what? — about 4.7 billion years old???

May you live forever!

As long as you have on rose colored glasses, make up rules for others that you can't possibly follow yourself. In short if you're a liberal you can most certainly observe it. ;)
