Your faith in evolution has no relationship to the the size of a hard drive in a computer. Computers are and will be "created". Your faith in the future of evolution has all the characteristics of a religion. At least yu are honest enough to acknowledge that a belief in evolution requires a degree of faith.

My prediction was that technology will allow evolutionary mechanisms of natural selection an mutation to be directly tested over millions of generations on organisms alive today. This is exactly like a prediction that 1tb harddrives will eventually be widespread. It's inevitable in a culture of increasing technology and knowledge about genetics.

No it isn't. Hard drives already exist and there is a history of them being made smaller, faster and less expensive. In order for advancements in technology to proof that evolution is true, you must first assume that macro evolution is true in the first place. The reality is that there currently is no proof that it is true.

BTW, natural selection is widely accepted, so advancements in technology would have little to add to the debate on evolution. It is macro-evolution that is the issue.
