Changes

Evolution has occured, according to Young Earth Creationists. The question is what caused it. YECs and supporters of naturalistic evolution disagree over that.

Global warming has occurred; air temperature has risen one degree Fahrenheit since the end of the Little Ice Age in the late nineteenth century. What environmentalists and real scientists disagree on is the cause.

Another interesting parallel is the way supporters of the liberal viewpoint scramble up the phenomenon and the cause. They speak about belief in "evolution" in a way that frequently fails to distinguish between (a) accepting that simpler forms of life appeared first and (b) believing that natural forces alone are enough to account for this. Likewise, environmentalists speak of "global warming" in a way that makes no distinction between the Modern Warming Period and the theory that mankind caused most of it.

When liberals ask, "Do you believe in evolution (or global warming)?" they don't want to entertain any discussion of cause and effect. They just want you to say that you agree with the whole package (and are one of them) or that you disagree (and are therefore some kind of simpleton or bad guy).
