The ToE and common ancestry of all life forms did not come from looking at the evidence

Consider this point then. To believe in evolution means you have to believe (have faith in) it "just happened." In believing God did it means having faith (believing) that God did it.
Nope.

Man came from monkeys! I guess it depends on which fairy tale you are comfortable with!

So when we type, "People did not come from monkeys," you read that as "People came from monkeys"? Good to know.

DO NEW SPECIES EVER ARISE?

Thank you. I got it from a pro-evolution site! Thank them.

sarcasm, it doesn't show that humans came from moneys, or vice versa, in fact it shows that humans and monkeys have a common ancestor that was neither human nor a monkey, but a primate, nonetheless.

One species does not form into another species. Again, you are showing your ignorance.
Apparently it does, over millions of years of course!

Gradual change occurs untill a species would be unable to reproduce with it's ancestors. That is when it is classified as a new species.
So humans eventually mated with monkeys?

So the new species is able to reproduce with it's parents generation, or grandparents, etc., but if you go back far enough, there is to much difference to reproduce.
Question: When the first fish with legs came out of the water what did it mate with?

Blame the site I got it from then.

RND:

New species do come into existence.

New species never come into existence.

Which?
Your question was: Is it your position that no new species ever evolve? My answer was: That about sums it up. Thus my position would be that no new species arise.

O.K. great, got it. Your position is that no new species ever arise. Thanks.

Did you notice it's the exact opposite of the position of the other YEC in this thread, Man of Faith? His position is that new species evolve, rapidly, from and within "kinds."

So we've given you several instances of actual new species actually evolving. I gave as an example the London mosquito. It's a new species of mosquito. You deny that it exists, or that it's a new species, or what?

Are you saying that the entomologists who have identified it as a new species are all incompetent?

Do you know what the word "species" means, in Biology?

RND,
Your complete ignorance of Evolution and the Theory of Evolution makes you unprepared for any conversation concerning them.

You have also evidenced an ignorance of hereditary DNA, basic biology, scientific classifications, and scientific models.

Your juvenile arguments are rather pitiful, and your unwillingness to accept known facts makes your ignorance willful.

You are free to wallow in your self righteous ignorance or you can actually educate yourself. Your choice.

really? because we have evidence of new species coming into existence within a short span of centuries. So, if it is your view that no new species ever arise, than you are lamentably mistaken.
