So, going for the derail since the OP is not about YE creationism? Try to stay on topic.....
Evolutionism is a part of YE creationism. As you learned, it's all the misconceptions people have about evolution.

Strengthening families through biblical principles.
Focus on the Family addresses the use of biblical principles in parenting and marriage to strengthen the family.

Hmm yes well as I see it Jesus is a creationist.
If He was an evolutionist I would expect to be reading things like
'but from the beginning of the evolution of man they were male and female...
therefore despite evolutionary change a man should leave the nest and settle in with his wife'.
Reads silly doesn't it,
so the best alternative is to believe God's word as He has given it to us.
Evolutionism
The term is sometimes also colloquially used to refer to acceptance of the modern evolutionary synthesis, a scientific theory that describes how biological evolution occurs.
creationists often call those who accept the validity of the modern evolutionary synthesis "evolutionists" and the theory itself as "evolutionism."
When you learn what you are talking about
BTW, population is a collection of individuals.
A population cannot evolve until individuals evolve.....
you should know that.
Please re-read......When you learn what you are talking about and no longer contradict yourself, please come back and join the conversation.
BTW, population is a collection of individuals. A population cannot evolve until individuals evolve.....you should know that.
You can't even quote correctly, can you? I distinctly said 'a population cannot evolve until individuals evolve'.
Misrepresentation of what a member says is reportable......no more reminders.
Hello calvin here
As I see it and I might be wrong.
A population might be able to evolve, but only if the individual organisms change.
Looked at one way, an individual might change, but if it is an isolated event it will not amount to anything. On the other hand if many individuals made the same change then that change might stay.....(safety in numbers)
Talk about drawing a long bow..:yes
I can understand the idea that a group of organisms when subjected to environmental changes will change to accommodate the new conditions.
There is another possibility other than evolution though that might be verified when we know a lot more about things than we do at present.
Perhaps the Lord created organisms with a built in variability such that they can switch to suit a certain amount of environmental change.
By way of example; I dabble a bit with Amateur Radio and because radio propagation varies from band to band over the course of a day and over the course of the seasons, I have a multi-band transceiver which enables me to operate on which ever band is best making communication possible.
Did we (mankind) think up something that never occurred to God when He was doing His creation? No I don't believe so.
Just something to think about.

Darwin called it "descent with modification." We call it "evolution." The interesting thing is, God made it to be extremely flexible, so that over time, it could make change after change, each generation building on the changes of the previous one.
Well regardless of the actual age, what seems to be interesting is that it was a bird not a winged feathered reptilasaurus.
If the 100,000,000 age estimate is correct, then that means birds have been birds for a very very long time.
The other thing of interest to me is the fact that it seems to have been smashed about either before or after entombment in the amber.
See what I mean? The coloring book version...throw in a little God...and who can challenge it?
Yes, genetics is flexible. But, Barbarian mentioned change after change...ASSUMING...it can actually happen.
What he forgets is that the mutations are RANDOM.
Secondly very, very, very few would be considered as beneficial.....and if a second beneficial mutation happens along Barbarian simply assume it will effect the same DNA responsible for the "evolving" trait....
Perhaps Barbarian wants to tell us God is directly causing the mutations to occur in the precise location of the DNA and it's really not random a all.
Hmm yes well as I see it Jesus is a creationist.
