Now wait a second - I happen to believe in evolution just as much as the
next geologist, but it doesn't bother you at all that we have *never*
observed speciation? I mean, bacteria produce generations *very*
rapidly. If no scientist has ever been able to produce speciation in
bacteria, I think that that signals a *major* flaw in our understanding of
evolution.
