I've used this before but...
When someone says that the planet is 6,000 years old and you compare that distance from pitcher to first base at Yankee Stadium then the actual distance is from the pitcher to second base...at the Dodgers Stadium.
The age being quoted is so monstrously ridiculous that it's not even wrong.

It's worse, if my calculations are correct. The distance between the pitcher's mound and home plate is roughly 60 ft. It's a bit further to first base.
13,800,000,000 / 6000 = 2,300,000
2.3e6 * 60 = 138,000,000 ft
138,000,000 / 5280 = 26,136 miles which is more than one time around the earth at the equator.
60 ft vs. one time around the world at the equator.

You don't know the power of Satan, and how deceptive he can be.
Paul even warns against embracing evolution, saying it can lead to atheism.

You appear to be backing the explanation that you are no longer yourself. In which case it is not you getting eternal life, it is a facsimile of you. Very altruistic of you working so hard to get that reward for something else, but what's in it for you?

Common biological functions are interpreted as originating from a common ancestor, back to a single cell, due to presupposition of naturalism, and won’t even consider the possibility of a common creator using economy of design.
This despite the fact that there is no feasible explanation of how life could go from a single celled organism that replicates via division, to sexual reproduction of multiple trillion celled animal life.
And there are no transitional forms between single cell and multiple trillion celled life - there are no two cell, fou cell, hundred cell, etc life forms.
A common creator fits the facts better than common descent.

Okay, genius, show me the transition form between single cells that split in two to reproduce, and hundred trillion cell life that uses sexual reproduction.

Aren't you going to tell me the fatal flaw in evolution? I dontbecpect to hear it, thst would take a genius.
Nothing special in intro biology tho. No genius needed. Average middle school will do.
Look for conjugation in paramecia for early sexual reproduction,
then try something like " evolution of multicellular organisms".
See how you do with those, before trying harder stuff.
