A science denier did not understand what he was denying.

Science denier:
If evolution is the established truth, then why do biologists claim that different species not mate.  Evolution claims that is how we arrived at the current set of species by them procreating with each other.

My reply:
I think you misunderstand how evolution works. What happens is members of the same species become separated from each other. Since these creatures can no longer share their genes with the other group they are likely to evolve differently. A good example are bonobo apes & chimpanzee apes. Their common ancestors became separated by a river. Over a very long period of time they gradually became different species. They look different and their personalities are the complete opposite of each other. Bonobos are constantly making love. They would never kill each other. Chimps also make love a lot but they frequently get a bit violent with other groups of chimps. Some chimps are killed.
The common ancient ape ancestors of chimpanzee apes & human apes became separated and obviously they evolved differently because of the different environments they lived in.
I suggest google "speciation" if you're interested in this stuff.
