Something that should scare you very much is that my Google showed a
bunch of articles for evolution without asking for it. That means that
Google is spying on you every time you use your phone or desktop.

It doesn't scare me at all, it's nothing new, and it's not just google. Take your Ritalin, tommy, you're losing focus again.


But anyway, these Google articles made several very good points:
1. Thinking that evolution works is like thinking that a watch
assembles itself.

No article I reference claims that, and if that's the line of thinking your following, it's clear you have no understanding at all of evolution.

President Clinton said, "If you see a turtle on top of a fencepost you can
be sure that it didn't get there under its own power."

He was talking about politics, you asshat.

This is not a
very strong an argument but certainly has to get you thinking.

Not even worth considering in the context of evolution.

2: If evolution worked the way that it is supposed to, speciation could
be expected to occur in a linear manner and that is NOT what it has done.

There was never an expectation that evolution or speciation would be linear.. Your interpretation of Darwin (to Rolf) is incorrect, and the concept of "constant pace" is highly subjective.

Particularly in the Cambrian Era where species of all sorts suddenly
appeared.
Also throughout the history of the Earth, rather than species evolving
they suddenly appeared in large numbers of species. This does not look
like evolution but rather mutation.

Whenever a species is affected by increasing selection pressures, beneficial mutations result in variations of that species and the result is evolution. No selection pressures and the population remains genetically stable (with the exception of genetic drift). The factors behind the Cambrian Explosion are well-documented, and it wasn't 'sudden'. The period lasted for at least 13 million years - sudden in terms of the formation of the earth, but not exactly like it would be noticeable in the context of a known natural observer.
