>But... as for vertebrates... one that is clearly seen to have evolved: Homo Sapiens. You will note that geological strata more than a few hundred thousand years old show no modern humans.

How would you try to show that they are different species.
St.Bernard and Poodle fossils would probably be considered different species.

Valid questions. But then... can, say, a male St. Bernard truly create successfuly offspring with, say, a female Chihuahua?

How woudlw e show that a Homo Erectus is a different species froma Homo Sapiens? Not sure, without breeding stock. But it is clear thatserious changes occured over time, and the lineage can be traced back a half billion years.

Of course, creation "science" has no valid hypothesis to explain the existence of Homo Erectus or any of the other millions of extinct, distinct fossil species... or how to explain why they are geologically stratified in the fossil record. Find a Tyrannosaur with a human femur in it's teeth, or a trilobite in the stomache of a bird, and maybe y'all will have something. But even after more than a century of searching, and numerous frauds, your side has utterly failed to deliver on actual evidence... while the evidence in favor of evolution has piled up like a mountain.

Y'all are reduced to such ludicrous notions as argueing against carbon dating because of some wacky notion that a miles-thick ocean of water was somehow suspended in the friggen *sky,* blocking cosmic radiation (but magically allowing sunlight to get through, imagine that).
