Changes

'''Macroevolution''' is a distinction made by some evolutionists and all [[young earth creationism|biblical creationists]] that separates the change of certain characteristics of various kinds of animals (causing [[species|speciation]]), from the changes that [[natural selection]], [[mutation]]s, and genetic drift that allegedly, given enough time, lead to the creation of radically different, new [[Baraminology|kinds of organisms]] consisting of a single common ancestor and all the descendants of that ancestor. For example, evolutionists have false alleged that [[bird]]s are the descendants of [[reptile]]s and that [[mankind]] descended from a common ancestor of [[ape]]s.  Macroevolution has never happened and the earth is approximately [[Young earth creationism|6,000 years old]] and not billions of years old. Some prominent modern biologists have made a distinction between microevolution and macroevolution (for example, see quotes of prominent evolutionists below).

Macroevolution is defined as genetic change taking place above the species level.<ref>https://catalog.loc.gov/vwebv/search?searchCode=LCCN&searchArg=37033383&searchType=1&permalink=y</ref> [[Microevolution]] is genetic change taking place below the species level in [[Linnaean taxonomy]].
