Is there evidence for natural selection through changing DNA (to the point where the DNA evolves into that of a different species)?
​
Yes, much. Not least of which is the observation of new species arising. When we check we find distinct genetic differences between the new species and its parent species.
​
I think there is a misunderstanding here. He things that selection directly changes the DNA??? That is the way I read it.
