: That's because you appear to have little understanding of formal logic and the scientific process; and thus your usage of logical concepts like "proof", "induction" and "evidence" is necessarily limited by your lack of logical understanding.: (I'm not saying that makes you inferior, bad or subhuman; it's just that you're trying to use logical concepts to back up your beliefs when you don't fully understand the concepts you're trying to use.)
Why is it logical to believe something is true when it can be proven that it is not? I'm not talking about the process of proving that the sides of a rectangle are parallel by assuming them not parallel, proving that assumption false, and then assuming your original assumption is true. Is that your idea of proving evolution true by proving it false?
Sorry, but even if I'm using terms of logic incorrectly (I won't argue against that possibility/probability), we're still talking quantum leaps. Whether evolutionary changes occur suddenly, as in a mouse giving birth to a hippo, or over time, as in a mouse giving birth to a bigger mouse which gives birth to a bigger mouse, etc., until we have a hippo, is not as much the issue as it is that evolution requires NEW genetic information which can not be gained by mutation. Somewhere in the process of the bigger mice, we need to add information that makes the organism a hippo, genetically different from a mouse.
And I'm not convinced that the finches "evolved" different types of beaks. Why could they not have been created with different types of beaks in the first place? The fact that they share similar genetic information does not inherently require similarity of ancestry -- it could mean that they have the same Designer. After all, if wings work for one species of birds, I'd probably use them for a second and third species if I were the one creating them -- and I can't begin to understand the creative imagination of One who could design mice, hippos, finches, people, and T. Rex's to occupy the same earth which He also designed in a universe that shows His creative ability.
