Ok. Can we agree that species go extinct? That is a fact right? You've heard of the term use it or lose it?

So if so many species have gone extinct - and don't get replaced or evolve into a species or creature that can survive changes - there wouldn't be this abundance of life on the planet. If humans didn't evolve to survive disease, viruses, bacteria - we wouldn't exist today. We would all be dead - extinct.

Do you believe that God currently adds new species to the planet?

The earth itself is not static, plates move, continents move - at a rate that your fingernails grow. It's slow, but lets look at the earth over the course of the 6000 years of the bible. Lets say the average plate moves 4 inches a year - over the course of 6000 years, that's 1/3 of a mile. It may not sound like much - but what effect do you think it's going to have on a climate in specific locations?
