I have heard it proposed by YEC's that Noah only brought 2 or 7 of each Kind of animal on the ark, and that thrugh a process of micro-evolution these kinds evolved into the variety we see today.
So... if noah took only 2 mole kinds:

How on earth do you account for the quick development of this kind of mole, native only to the northern USA:
Nature - Not Found
http://www.sciencenews.org/sn_arc99/10_23_99/fob3.htm
Disregarding the obvious question about how the star nosed mole got to North America in the first place, can any creationist explain how micro, and not macro-evolution, transpired over such a short amount of time to develop such a highly complex and specialized organ on this animal?
If micro-evolution only provides for small changes over time, like size, color, etc. Then how did an entirely new organ, capable of sensing things we aren't even aware of, arise?

I find it amazing how YEC's readely dismiss the evolutionary model, yet will not take up the opertunity to explain their own micro-evolution model in regards to a presently living mammal.
If Noah's ark was real, how did the star-nosed mole come from the mole "kind"?
Does no one have a hypothesis?

YEC's seem to evade these II....
I decided to *BUMP* this topic, as it was thuroughly avoided by the YEC's. Aparantly they don't like arguing about specifics.
