"Is macro evolution a sad attempt to confuse people?" "What evolution is it is small changes over a period of time. Small changes over time can lead to really big changes. I am a christian by the way."
Only science deniers use the words micro and macro. Their idea is "micro yes, macro no." These people are uneducated morons.
We are an ape species and we are most closely related to chimpanzee apes.
We are human apes. You Christians worship a dead ape. What are the religious implications?
Another problem is your dead Jeebus was an evolution denier. This means you worship a dead ape who was an uneducated moron. That definitely has religious implications.
Are you sure you want to continue believing in your Magic Jeebus Man?

Somebody else (name is Alexis) wrote this which was well done:
"Macroevolution" and "microevolution" are not actual *things* in science. They were obscure references to words coined by a Russian entomologist about a century ago, until Creationists revived them to create the erroneous impression that there is some qualitative difference between evolutionary change below the species level and above it, when there isn't. You won't hear actual scientists use the terms "microevolution" or "macroevolution" except in what have become unfortunately necessary responses to Creationists and their nonsense.
There's just "evolution", the variation of frequencies in allele variation in a population over time in response to environmental attrition. Evolution above the species level is absolutely important from a cladistic sense, and in a population genetics sense as well. But there's no qualitative difference in the actual allele variation over time. It's just cumulative over time, punctuated in times of environmental upheaval, in relative stasis over long periods of environmental stability.

"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
