Maybe I am giving the wrong impression here, Joe. I don't deny that evolution occurs. Duh. When you look at the replica of the Mayflower, you can appreciate how much bigger we are than our ancestors of just a few hundred years ago. With the horses, I have seen the charts that illustrate the evolution of that animal over a much longer period. As to the tapir, it is clearly in the horse family. So I am not denying evolution, and I regret if I have seemed to do so. In your analogy of tracing the horse backward, my problem comes at the point where you talk of a horse-ancestor that no longer looks anything like a horse. Well, what DID this creature look like? And what DID the creature that preceded that one look like? And what did all the transitioning creatures in bewteen these two look like (the ones that were half one specie and half another specie, or one quarter and three-quarter)? Why do we find no fossilized examples of any of these creatures that were part one specie and part another? It seems to me that we have no logical explanation for this.
