A Misconception that should be rooted out

Evolution is a simple and elegant. It's that simple. There are no holes in it and the reason it can't be proven without a doubt is because of the time scale it operates on. It most certainly makes more sense than, say, being created from mud.

If you take a bunch of mice into a lab for 25 years and intrude mutations to successive generation's gene pool you would almost certainly have a different breed of mice. And while these mutation might not drastically alter the mice to the extent that they become a different species they would most certainly be different from the mice that were not in the control group. Now if you do this over 1000 years they would most certainly be classified as different species. This is evolution, this is real and can not be dismissed so easily.
