Default Re: Why Is Only \"Micro Evolution\" Acceptable?

[ QUOTE ]
I found it interesting skimming wikipedia on evolution the other day that evolution is not just a scientific concept...Wikipedia listed 3 or 4 types of evolution besides biological evolution which is the most discussed type...Guess I have to go back and read it...there are many types of evolution apparently but we are constantly focusing on the 1 type where all the debate is...

Good point! Creationists frequently make the mistake of confusing biological evolution with a vague overreaching idea of "evolution."

Biological evolution makes no claims about what initially sparked life. So the main creationist qualm (life from non-life) should not even be a part of the discussion!

When biological evolution is mistakenly conflated with other evolutionary processes, it can result in errors such as the claim that modern evolutionary theory says anything about abiogenesis (life spark) or the Big Bang.
