From the article:

“The Biblical Creation model actually predicts and requires not just speciation, but rapid speciation!

Creationists believe that after the Flood, each animal kind (baramin) rapidly diversified, over just a few thousand years, often forming new species in the process.

But speciation is not evolution! In fact, we had written about how the rapid rate of speciation continues to astonish evolutionists in cases of new species of mosquitoes, weeds, and house mice.

The idea that creationists do not believe in the formation of new species is a strawman argument often put forth by uninformed evolutionists, and you yourself have fallen for that fallacy. In reality, anyone familiar with creationist literature would know that creationists reject the fixity of species—we even mention fixity of species as an argument creationists should not use!

Interestingly, the fixity of species was actually taught by Darwin’s anti-biblical mentor, Charles Lyell, and it has more to do with the teachings of Aristotle than the teaching of the Bible.”

Evolution is the change in the frequency with which a gene is expressed within a given population.

Evolutionists push the crazy.

In their world, the crossover from asexual reproduction to sexual reproduction is a simple mutation. What is left unexplained is that in their millions of successive mutations, how TWO identical and compatible mutations occurred at the EXACT same time and in precisely the SAME microworld where they could begin their new "family."

It seems like evolution demands a high degree of faith.

I predict this thread will end up being an evolutionary dead-end.

As in “no thanks.”

But I am letting lurkers now many Conservatives do understand TToE and it just isn’t worth it to list all the fallacies in this rehash of all the old Creationist fallacies.

Have a blessed day.

Just look how rapid it was in humans. Over the course of what, about 1,000 years, the descendants of Noah developed the characteristics of sub-Saharan Africans, east Asians, south Asians aboriginal Australians, Native Americans, and Caucasians. I’ve always wondered which characterisrics of today’s populations most resemble those of Noah. Was he Black, White, Asian or some equal mix?

At this rate creationists might as well finally get honest say that evolution is part of creation.

Trust man’s wisdom at your own detriment. God said He created everything and that it was good. Death didn’t come about until after the fall of man in the garden of Eden - so thus, no evolution for a creation process.

Any of you preaching Theistic evolution are preaching a Gospel not found in the Bible. You are calling God a liar at Genesis 1. Jesus said that for anyone teaching young Christians a lie, this is His promise to you: But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. - Matt 18:6

Even 2 Peter 3:8, the day-to-thousands that Theistics love to quote, is curse upon you. Don’t believe me? Read the chapter in full. God does not forget His promises.

Don’t follow the lie. Don’t preach the lie. Repent and Trust God, for you can only serve God or man, not both. (Matt. 6)

I find it interesting when they talk about present day mutation in genes. For them everything should be a mutation.
