I have not seen enough evidence to convince me of speciation via evolution. I have not seen enough evidence to convince me that there has been enough TIME for all of the crap they expect us to swallow about evolution. Punctuated equilibrium and Epigenics make sense, but I still have not seen any evidence of speciation via these mechanisms, so I am stuck.-That is why I think evolution is guided. If you read Michael Denton's two books: Evolution & Nature's Destiny; and add Simon Conway Morris' Life's Solution, you will begin to understand my viewpoint. Morris makes a powerful point in his discussion of 'convergence'. Six different kinds of eyes is an example.-Having traveled the Grand Canyon by oared raft with one of the world's leading canyon geologists, head of a major university geology department, I really appreciate the layer cake the Earth is. From your background I'm sure you do also. The ages of those layers are pretty specific. The complexity of the fossils increases as you travel up in time from the Vishnu Shist. Evolution by some method must have happened. By chance mutation, no way. The origin of life falls into the same category. The books above are the best threesome I have encountered to suggest pre-plannng.-And it is OK to be a scientist and believe in God. Any reasonable person looking at science can see the pointers to God:-Nobel Scientist, Dr. Phillips, and his thoughts: -http://uip.edu/en/articles-en/ordinary-science-ordinary-faith
