Evidence for Evolution - Your Elevator Pitch

. Having slightly modified species poof into existence rather than being modified in situ would be an extremely odd way to work.

Wouldn’t modification in-situ make common descent irrelevant?

I dont know why people equate common descent with evolution. To me,the entire point of evolution is that it is “unguided”.
Would you view “Guided evolution” as evolution?
