Well the short answer is
of course animals change!
The real question is how much change is possible?
For macro evolution(what)
to be true you need to change a bacteria into a man! Bacteria don't have eyes,
skin, and most importantly a conscience. This is the
problem. No one is arguing about wither dogs can make different looking dogs.
But if a bacteria suddenly grows a leg and eye balls even the most ardent
evolutionist would be surprised. Why? Because doesn't happen not even in
multiplied billions of years.
Wolfs, coyotes,
dingoes, and domestic dogs are classified into different species. However they
are all interfertile. In other words they can all get together and make more of
the dog-kind. Genesis tells us God created animals after their kind. This is
different from a species. A wolf, coyote, dingo, and bulldog are all the same
"kind" of animal.
We see lots of variety
in humans as well. But we are all the same species. Even today we see variety
coming from different people like this couple
pictured Here. Variety is a matter of DNA.
We have the
information in our DNA to produce different looking children. Actually when
parents have children the child is a combination of the DNA in the parents, a
mixture if you will.
If Evolution is true
you have to produce "NEW" GENETIC information (DNA)
that was not there before. What does happen in nature is something called
Natural selection
(what).
Natural selection works like a quality control.
When a animal (in this
case lets say of the Dog Kind) is introduced into a new area where it is
extremely cold. This dog has the genetic variety to produce dogs with long hair
and short hair. The "short" hair dogs freeze too death and the long hair dogs
survive better then the short hair dogs. The long hair dogs make more dogs with
long hair. Soon all the dogs have "long" hair
because the gene for "short" hair was not
"selected" and eventually lost.
You start with one
kind of dog with lots of built-in variety and then after spreading the animals
out over the world into different living environments the dogs begin to look
more and more different becoming better fit to their new environment. The dogs are
LOSING information as they become more specialized
to an area not
GAINING it. Even a
Great Dain is interfertile with a Chihuahua.
There are some obvious mechanical problems but interfertile none the less.
In some rare
cases these changes along with mutations can even lead to some animals no longer being interfertile. But
you can still tell they were of the same original kind.
You can bread wolfs to get a Chihuahua but you could not breed Chihuahuas to get
a wolf. Why???? Because they don't have the information to make a wolf. But the
wolf does have the information to make a Chihuahua, and coyote etc.
This is so important I
will say it again.
If Macro Evolution
(what) is to work there has to be a way to
GAIN New information in the DNA.
Evolutionist have know about this problem for
many years but have yet to come up with an answer that is viable. We have never
observed a reptile growing something of which his kind did not have the
information for in their DNA.
Example Dinosaur to Bird Evolution
A good example of that is the idea of dinosaurs evolving into
birds. Retiles do not have the information in their DNA to produce feathers,
Also Birds don't learn to fly from their parents. They learn to fly yes but it
comes about instinctively not from watching others. Many species of bird
navigate hundreds of miles to places they have never been before but
instinctively know where to go. They do this without their parents to show them
the way. The amazing thing is each generation goes to the same place without
fail, and without any one leading they the way or even teaching them to fly at
all.
