No one outside of the willfully obstinate questions the idea that new life forms evolved from older ones, a process conclusively illustrated in biology and the fossil record.,

Micro-evolution is what is being refered to here, adaptation to change WITHIN a species. There is no fossil record of a species evolving into a different species, known a macro-evolution. The mixing of these two ideas is what seems to cause the fevered debates concerning evolution.

"I see you have a nice collection of small pictures, arranged in chronological order, and affixed to a narrow strip of celluloid. An impressive display, but there is no evidence here. You claim these are moving pictures - but which picture shows the motion?"
