I am impressed. Just not convinced. I realize that the whole issue of defining just what a new species would be is a very elusive task in itself, and so my challenge was, in a way, unfair.

If you're impressed now, just wait another 10 or 20 years. This technology is very new.

I will certainly continue to consider every human equal, and believe this to be so. Evolutionists should not, and should hope to be in a superior race, else for the survival of the fittest should remove themselves.

What in the world are you talking about?

Evolutionists should also applaud any extinction as progress.

What in the world are you talking about?

I also understand only slightly how amazingly animals are fit to flourish and even adapt through natural selection of traits already inherent.

Yes. And also through natural selection of any valuable mutations that may come along.

In support of creation... I cite hybrid vigor to show that earlier gene pools had greater variation as well as more favorable phenotypes available for adaptation than pedigreed descendants.

I don't think this is accurate. Early gene pools had much less material than at present. Otherwise we wouldn't have the abundance of species that now populate the world. Although it's true that an isolated group can suffer from inbreeding. This is not, however, any evidence of creationism. Rather, if creationism were a fact, every species would be perfectly vigorous, having been created by an infinitely wise deity.
