> Apparently, you are unclear on the definition of science. Evolutionary science makes testable hypothesis. And a great many of the tests have borne out true. So far, all the verifiable evidence regarding evolution has either supported it... or modified it... nothing yet refutes it.

One of the limitations of science is that it cannot prove a universal negative such as "No type of evolution has ever happened anywhere." So you have not proved anything by claiming that science cannot prove evolution has not happened.

>nothing yet refutes it.

It would be better if someone could prove it possible... how about designing (I know that is cheating, but evolution would require it) a new species from the many breeds of dog.

Sure. But that, as you are aware, was not the main claim in support of evolution. It is dishonest of you to suggest that it was, when the actual quote was: "So far, all the verifiable evidence regarding evolution has either supported it... or modified it... nothing yet refutes it."

Evolution is supported, not refuted. Creationism is refuted, but not supported.

>It would be better if someone could prove it possible...

It's been seen to happen, and within a span of decades. New species emerge. Game over.

Been done. Discussed in few recent threads:
Changing One Gene Launches New Fly Species.
Evolution Caught In The Act.
Enzymes stitch together non-natural DNA [Getting closer to lab-made life].
Evolving Artificial DNA [Closer to making "life- in-the-lab"].

I've posted this before, something to think about:

Imagine an island with plenty of pasture, water, etc., but no animals. Introduce 100 male horses and 100 female donkeys. Come back in 100 years. There will be no equids.:

Now imagine an island with plenty of game, water, etc. Introduce 100 male great Danes and 100 female chihuahuas. Come back in 100 years. There will be no canids.

Conclusion. Great Danes and chihuahuas are different species.
