Terry, wouldn't it seem equally as plausible that a designer God would create
beings with the genetic capability to adapt to what you call "stressful"
circumstances, and rapidly at that? These rapid micro-mutations work
beautifully. But the evidence doesn't suggest major change occurs this way.

What about that scenario? Why must one take a leap to major change based upon
beaks?
