I haven't seen macroevolution...

...but I believe it happens because of the fossils intermediate between forms. I see an isotropic distribution of long-period comets with semi-major axes clustered around ~20,000 AU, so I believe they're from a spherical Cloud.

Tell me it's all faith, Jake.

        Then where do we get long period comets from??? - Adam Crowl - 7/14/2008 6:44:58 AM

        You're trying to indicate that the Oort Cloud theory explains a lot? - Jacob - 7/14/2008 2:21:04 AM
        
        It is not impossible that a better solution might somehow be found for the evidence at hand. - alcaray - 7/14/2008 2:41:09 AM
