: Research such as published in the non-creationist Michael Denton's "Evolution: A Theory In Crisis" is increasingly proving the impossibility of "macro" evolution.
You obviously ignore the fact that in his next book, Denton proved he fully accepted macro-evolution. He also proved that calling him a "non-creationist" is a truth with massive modification, since his basic argument is that nature reveals "design", ie. that a Designer (avoiding word "God") somehow put evolution on its tracks. So, even Denton himself fully ignores and implicitly refutes the arguments he made in "crisis".
I am waiting for the new book: "Denton, a creationist in crisis"
Btw, the "by design" argument was refuted by David Hume, and amazingly, his refutation needs little update after all these years.
