    Well domestic animals like dogs, cats and even cows (I think) are still interbreedable with their wild ancestors. Till that changes I'm not sure if we can talk about different species. When we can, however...
    Why not? We can see genetic codes are clearly heriditary and carry information. Sooner or later they will be so different as to prevent cross-breeding, at least usually. Therefore different species. I'm not sure there is any sensible way to argue against that, at all.

    That's what I was referring to. Since evolution of living things is basically a side effect of heredity, it would seem to me refusing one would basically require also dumping the other more or less per definition.
    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."
