The "science" you speak of is shoddy at best. It's called 'Baraminology' and, even among the Creation Science community is poorly understood. For example, no one has been able to offer a definition of what a "Kind" (or Baramin) is. Is 'Cat' a kind? Or is 'Carnivore' a kind? At what point in the classification system is the division of kind? Nothing has been offered from the Creation community other than a vague notion without any kind of supporting evidence.

Your problem as always is in your interpretation of the evidence. History is 5% evidence and 95% supposition based on that 5% evidence. Any science based on history cannot be embraced with the same confidence as science confirmed by the scientific method. It's too easy to see something in your grilled cheese sandwich that's not there.

This is one of the most common arguments that the creation community uses and is also one of the poorest as it's based on a misunderstanding of both the evidence supporting evolution and exactly what the 'scientific method' is. HINT: your grade six science fair project is not the only way to apply the scientific method.
