Dear Reader,
Recent blog posts at mormonsandscience.com about macroevolution and common descent have created quite a stir (for example, see here, here, and here). While I have argued that confirmatory evidence of macroevolution is not available, some readers have argued that confirmatory evidence is available.
I therefore conducted a search of hybrid species and life forms in transition on the internet. I went to various sites including the pro-evolution Talk Origins Archive website which has an excellent article titled 29 evidences for macroevolution. The results were shocking (hence the title).
It turns out that there is abundant evidence for macroevolution and that evidence is is sufficiently confirmatory. I thus abjure my formal skepticism and declare unequivocally that macroevolution is real. I've gathered some of the best evidence. After looking over some of this evidence (presented below), I am sure that you will come to the conclusion, if you have not yet done so, that macroevolution is a fact!
You people who disagree with this evidence are just a bunch of creationist hacks. I suggest you spend less time at the Discovery Institute for the Scientifically Challenged and more time reading legitimate sources.

(Just a little humor, folks. I hope you had a good laugh.)
