The biggest and most frustrating thing for me to understand about evolution is what follows. It really has very little, if anything, to do with "creationism" but I couldn't find a better spot for this thread.
If evolution is created from slow change over billions of years, due to natural selection, to what to degree is this "slow" change?
You see... If it *really* takes billions of years to develop an eye how do those tiny, and I mean ridiculously tiny, changes help keep an organism alive?? I understand, for natural selection to work, the organism develops certain characteristics to help it to survive but I fail to see how a slight deformation could possibly help an organism stay alive.
And if it's a larger more dramatic change then why don't we have evidence of this in nature? (Something that changed dramatically and helps the organism survive. It's also important that the trait is capable of being passed on to the next generations.)
I want to know about how fast evolutionists believe creatures change so I can better understand how this theory is suppose to work.
