Russell is right that Crow does not address other organisms besides humans (well ... fruit flies). But what kind of twisted thinking could justify the idea that other higher organisms would not be subjected to the same problems?
Face it. Diversication and speciation (within very limited boundaries) happened very quickly following the abatement of the Global Flood and subsequent repopulation of the earth.
(As would be expected from what we know ... thank you Dr. Ayala)
Following this, many species went extinct as a result of climate change and other factors during the Ice Age.
NOW I would bet that there is almost no speciation going on and probably has been very little in the last 3500 years or so relative to the massive amount that probably took place during the first 800 or so years following the Flood.
Rather, at the present time, what we hear about is endangered species, not new species.
Would you disagree?

Jesus approved of speaking the truth, confronting error, and being polite, except with hardened deceivers (which I don't think you are one). Have I called you any names? Have I treated your statements unfairly? Or if I did, not fixed it immediately? Yes, I think Jesus would approve.

I didn't ask you to engage me. you chose to. You have always been free to leave whenever you like.
