2. Can you observe evolution happening? Because for many species, humans included, evolution happens over the course of many thousands of years, it is rare to observe the process in a human lifetime. Usually only laboratory scientists studying quickly reproducing life forms, like single-celled creatures and some invertebrates, have the opportunity to see evolutionary change happen before their eyes. All of us can and do experience the indirect effects of evolution nearly every day, however. One of the more important evolutionary concerns facing humans today is the emergence of antibiotic-resistant microbes. A battle against bacteria that we have been winning with medicine for the last 50 years or so is now an even race, according to some scientists -- because of the rapid rate of bacterial evolution. Similarly, the use of pesticides in agriculture has driven the evolution of resistant insects that require more or harsher chemicals to be killed. Scientists studying Galapagos finches have seen evolutionary changes in beak size and shape in just a few years. Major evolutionary transformations take much, much longer.

The only reason evolution is still around is because it has given and provided over 1,000,000 jobs to people during the 20th and 21st century to study and publish in books and television series. Without evolution, jobs are GONE, people are out on the streets, families poor and broke. Just like the cure for HIV/AIDS and all kinds of diseases scientist ALREADY have found the cure for. The only pawns in this game getting played is Atheist that really think evolution is true and told. And I'm not trying to be offensive or start an argument. But honestly, Atheist are the only ones foolish enough to believe there is no God! Scientist must discredit God at every chance in the eye of the public or else they fear that if people knew creation was the LIFE truth of the world, Christianity and the laws of God would reign supreme again and that is what they don't want! They want to live their lives in sin and keep the world Anti-Christian so they are not forced to hear the word of God and the consequences of their sin (which is Hell!)! THAT is why evolution is STILL here and still accredited, accepted, and shoved down our throats by the scientific community. It is NOTHING but a huge LIE the world has been duped by!!
Your ignorance is astounding.
