re: #74 dog philosopher ஐஒஔ௸

from what I’ve gathered reading about this: creationists have seized on scientific language to argue that creationism is real. Basically, in evolutionary biology, microevolution is a term used for short term evolution; while macroevolution is a term used on the geological scale of time. Creationists play the “we can’t observe things on the geological scale therefore it’s not real” game; but they admit microevolution exists because even they recognize things like different breeds of dogs and cats. But in reality, from a scientific point of view, there’s no real difference between micro and macroevolution (it’s the difference between one baseball game and a season or career).
