ID creationists do not deny microevolution because they cannot deny it. It is perfectly obvious and incontrovertible that it happens. It would require a suicidal degree of stupidity to deny that microevolution happens rather often and easily. But they assert that macroevolution either has never been observed or is theoretically impossible... If these processes can effect minor, or at least intraspecies modification over remarkably short time spans, there is no reason in principle why these same processes could not effect major modification, i.e., speciation, over remarkably long time spans.That is why we stated at the outset that evolution is a complete theory: it encompasses both micro and macro variation and emergence under exactly the same mechanisms.
