If evolution is nonsense, then how do you explain this?

The E coli that has just hit Germany is a mutated strain of a previous known type. If it did not EVOLVE then how did it develop? You can't believe in micro-evolution and NOT believe in macro-evolution, the only difference is the amount of time.

Can't wait to see the answers.

    It's called mutation.

    This justifies macro evolution, but doesn't justify the theory of evolution. Just seeing that macro evolution is fact, and is still happening should be proof enough to those who don't accept the theory, but unfortunately it does not mesh with religion.

    @No Chance Without Jesus You are a fine example of ignorance. A species adapting is the process of macro-evolution, over time they will evolve into new species.

    @pentex well micro and macro evolution are demonstrable facts, they just don't believe the theory of evolution.

    I guess here's a prime example of some bacteria evolving into....

    bacteria. TADA!!!

    When it "evolves" into something that's not bacteria, then put it in the news and I'll be convinced of macro evolution. Otherwise, the statement that things must remain within their type is still true.

    Your never going to justify evolution to people that believe in creation. If they can't understand something so simple as when you plant a seed it evolves into a flower, then just let them live their fantasy and smile at the fact that you have common sense.

    As they say ignorance is bliss, to each their own.

    Strangely enough, there's people who believe in micro-evolution but not macro. How does that work? I have no clue, but i'm sure they'll try to throw some incoherent pseudo-scientific explanation.

    I predict a good number of the old creationist made distinction of micro macro evolution, as if they were something different.

    Somehow, magically, "microevolution" never leads to "macroevolution", which is the most illogical thing considering given enough little changes, over time it appears like a big change.

    Everyone is going to say "God did it" but then why the hell won't he take the time to give me a motorcycle? Why do E.Coli bacteria get all the miracles??

    And yet it is still e-coli

    Hmmm

    A species changing and adapting......but remaining the same species.

    Not evolution

    Without speciation evolution fails
