Evolution has already been observed on smaller scale. Evolution from primates is a near impossibility to prove, but evolution on its own is something we do every generation.
The size and development of our brains alone are a massive evolution over even a few hundred years ago.
The only parts of evolution that can make any sense are survival of the fittest and natural selection. They are self evident truths. Neither of which are avenues to cross species mutation.
First: I have already stated that it's essentially impossible to prove because it happens over a period of time that we are incapable of observing
Second: The whole point of the theory of evolution is that we are sort of the same species
Third: I actually no longer have a personal opinion on this topic at hand between them. I am actually of the opinion that evolution and creation are not mutually exclusive like both sides want us to think. Even if God created us, it does not mean we cannot change or evolve -- after all, that's literally what these vaccinations have been aiming to do.
However, it is a fact that we have evolved over time to smaller degrees (and survival of the fittest is irrelevant to this beyond passing those genes on, which has become much easier over time anyway) and that alone shows evidence of evolution.
But because there is literally no way to prove one way or another, it is ultimately an almost entirely pointless argument to have.
