There are no species identical to their archaic forms.
repeated for effect....
since I've never claimed they were I'm not certain why you mention it....

Crocodiles have evolved. They have changed less than other animals but they have evolved from archaic forms.

Not all evolution is divergence.
wrong.....ancient bears evolved in different regions as different species.......polar bears evolved in one region, grizzly bears in another.....
ancient humans are all homo sapiens.......
why aren't there homo sapienpolarpeople and homo sapiengrizzlypeople....
this is why I stated that multi-regional evolution is illogical......observational science does not bear it out.....
you mean apart from the fact I specifically stated they did, I denied it?.....
repeated for effect....
that assumes that phytosaurs are the archaic forms of crocodiles instead of simply being phytosaurs.....
consider the practical consequences of your claim......if there is no change, there is no evolution......in order to change you have to be different from the original.....
WTF are you talking about?
Yes, you denied it.
You claimed the entire population does not evolve.
They are simply both. There were no crocodiles at that time. Did they appear out of thin air?
Divergence or speciation is when a species splits into two or more descendant species.
Maybe this well help. I doubt it. You are claiming this is not possible, but you would not find any educated person that agrees.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anagenesis
Anagenesis, also known as "phyletic change", is the evolution of species involving an entire population rather than a branching event, as in cladogenesis. When enough mutations have occurred and become stable in a population so that it is significantly differentiated from an ancestral population, a new species name may be assigned. A key point is that the entire population is different from the ancestral population such that the ancestral population can be considered extinct. A series of such species is collectively known as an evolutionary lineage.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anagenesis
the other divergent species related to homo sapien....such as we observe with every other type of creature.....
lol.....no......I haven't......in fact I specifically remember stating I expected brown bears and polar bears to share 99% or more of their DNA.....
yet no such network is visible for any other species of anything anywhere........is this "hypothesis" supported by the scientific method?.......
the entire population does not undergo the same change that the divergent population undergoes.......
you have a population of archaic bears......one small portion diverges and is isolated from the entire population......eventually they evolve into polar bears.......another small portion diverges and is isolated from the entire population.....eventually they evolve into grizzly bears......the changes that the divergent population undergoes does NOT effect the general population, otherwise it would not be divergent.......the archaic population that did NOT adapt to a changing environment and diverge into something else, becomes extinct.....
well, you are already aware that I believe in creation......but at the moment we're discussing the failings of your own beliefs.......
aha!.......is it possible you have realized what I am talking about?........if homo sapiens is #1, who is #2?.......shucks, beetles got 37,000, we ought to at least have two.....
brillig!.....can you give me an example of a species that came forth through anagenesis?......(other than the claimed homo sapiens and their domesticated animals, of course).......
because if I don't, you don't respond to the things I say......Why do you insist on splitting every post into so many separate responses.
Another likely example of considerable anagenesis is the giraffe. It's closest relative, the okapi, is quite different. How did that happen?
A common example given is foraminifera. This source talks aobut a species of lemur like primates discovered by Gingerich.
