You are doing just that when you say things along the line of, "Evolution is false because it contradicts my interpetation of the bible." your saying you know for a fact what is true in the bible, and rejects what god has left in nature. I don't reject literal bible because I scared of the bible or anything, I reject it because it doesn't comport with reality that I see. The evidence is with evolution, so either your right and the bible must be taken litearlly and therefore is false, or your interpetation is wrong, there is no third option as far as me and many others see. I rely on what is in nature, not what I think nature should be.
God is the one who said he created in 6 days. Maybe you need to go read the Bible again.
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.”
And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.
Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation
And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years,
And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”
And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.”
Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
I don't have to say a thing, God is the one saying it. In fact, I could say nothing but just paste Bible verses here.
Evolution is a man-made theory to explain how life came to be without God. Evolution claims that a one-cell creature gradually evolved into swimming creatures, that came up onto the land and became air-breathing animals. That one of those animals turned into some ancestor of man and finally after millions of years of death and struggle mankind came into being. It goes against everything that Genesis stands for, as well as many New Testament verses.
Nowhere in the Bible does God mention evolution.
The Bible clearly states that there was no death before sin. The sin committed by Adam is what brought in death. A bit different to evolutions take of millions of years of death before mankind.
Romans 5:12
12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death came through sin, and so death spread to all because all have sinned—
The other option is to not look upon the evidence through the lens of evolution but from what God told us.
An evolutionist points to similar DNA between animals and cites that as proof of common ancestry and evolution. Why is that a proof of evolution? Who says it's a proof of evolution? They do. I challenge that notion.
We can all agree that there are many similarities between animals and much-shared DNA. That point is the fact, what comes after that is opinion on it.
Why can't similarities in DNA be because the same creator made us all out of the same materials? Why wouldn't there be similarities, in fact I would be surprised if there weren't any. If you want to know how do I know it was the same materials, well that's in Genesis 2.
And
7 then the Lord God formed man
from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.
Then in
18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner.” 19
So out of the ground the Lord God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.
The evidence didn't change, the fact of similar DNA didn't change. The only thing that changed was the opinion on why it is similar.
There is a third option, some people not wanting to believe in the chance random process of evolution and also not wanting the God of the Bible have turned to outer space for their answers. They believe the earth was seeded by aliens. This of course beggars the question of who made the aliens, but I guess that doesn't bother them.
