Evolution is straight up bad ass...Such a cool field of study.
That's always been how I've seen it, too.
Earlier I gave the example of how Tiktaalik was found. That is so bad ass... Evolution helped them find where geographically, how deep to dig, and what specifically they should find. After a decade of search; they eventually found almost exactly what they were looking for.
Another predictive sign of evolution. Try to find evidence of a dinosaur 300 million years ago...its not there.
If it was all "created in an instant", why are there layers and layers of differing life forms? Why is it that they get more simple the deeper you dig (exactly what evolution predicts), and more complex in the more shallow layers. And all of this was predicted LONG before we began finding fossils en masse.
Evolution also predicts that you should find dinosaur features in birds...and we do; especially in fetal development.
