Nonsense. Utter nonsense.
If you have a better theory, let's say magic, all you have to do is conjure up some and prove that evolution through natural selection did not cause speciation. Simple as that.
If you're of a mind that a god created man from scratch, all you have to do is have him come down, call a press conference, produce some more men out of thin air, and tell us that he did this 3000 or so years ago to Adam and Eve, and thereby prove to me that evolution through natural selection is false. He can also mention how he deliberately produced geological strata and fossils of shellfish on top of mountains just as practical joke.
For anyone who relies on magic to falsify what's REAL, all they have to do is produce the magic.
What's your theory, Fred?
