Here is a great article from Nature magazine. They said it much better then I ever could, it is a credible source, and what they discussed is peer reviewed science. |
Nothing surprising there. A bunch of references to selective breeding is hardly a definitive proof of evolution. Totally different things. You specifically referenced dogs as an example of diversity through breeding for select characteristics; yet they remain dogs, not birds, lizards or whatever the next step is supposed to be.

Oh, and they give original references.
Current stuff, not stuff written more then 2000 years ago. They actually know that a bat is a mammal, and not as the bible says (Deuteronomy 14:18), a bird. They also know that a rabbit does not chew it's cud, unlike the bible in the same chapter.
You know, the scientific reality.

Taxonomic classification was not invented yet at the time. This is just a functional comparison. Hares do not regurgitate food to re-chew, but they do engage in refection.
