the validity of microevolution only?
Line 1: Line 1: −
'''Evidence of evolution''' consists of all historical and modern facts which suggest the validity the [[microevolution]]. There is no physical evidence for [[macroevolution]] which is also referred to as the general [[theory]] of [[evolution]].  The three aspects of macroevolution which must be proven are: first, that the various species of life have appeared gradually over the course of time (i.e., hundreds of millions of years); second, that all forms of life have a common ancestor (see [[common descent]]); third, that the cause of the first two aspects can be accounted for entirely by natural means (see [[natural selection|theory of evolution by natural selection]]).

[[Creationism]], particularly the religious idea generally called [[Young Earth Creationism]], rejects the latter two aspects of evolution on Biblical grounds. Creationists approach the problem with the faith that God created every important form of life. Just over half of creationists agree with the first aspect of evolution (gradual appearance); see [[Old Earth Creationism]].
