I am not a scientist, but I will say this that there is plenty of true evidence against evolution, a chief one being that Mutation's and Natural Selection both decrease genetic information, not increase like evolution claims.
In any case, even if there was all the "scientific" or "worldly" "evidence" for evolution, I wouldn't believe it because the word of God is truth, not man's opinion's and man's research.
But, true science evidence points to creation, not microbes-to-man evolution.
Strange.
Science points to nothing, that is the nature of it. the scientists make the judgement.
Explain the Galapagos finch in terms of Creation. (in relation to different species filling different ecological niches on the mainland)
Explain the Human eye or Knee in terms of Evolution.
both are impossibilities.
If " Mans opinion" is worthless, why do you express an opinion at all.
Evolution is a theory of how we got here - it is truth, because it is testable and repeatable based upon the evidence (speciation and genetical differentiation)
Creation is a theory of how we got here - God's theory, so it has a little more weight behind it. But God invented the DNA, governs how it mutates, employs evolutionary schemes in His creations. God is obviously repeatable, though the testability of Him requires a few setting up exercises.
so Evolution and creation are not mutually exclusive. they are complementary to one another.
if the Rock strata were all laid down in the flood, where did the sand and mud come FROM??? we see no big holes in the strata.
if the earth is only 6000 years old and a flood caused all this rock strata etc. explain a monument in the sands of egypt (where there is no rain) whethered by gentle rainfall over at least a thousand years. This monument attests to a time 12000 years ago (by the symbology of it's shape and position).
if the earth is 4.5 billion years old, where are all the other intelligent species that should have evolved in that time. why only a few bones in the ground?
neither evolutionary theory, nor pure biblical creationism have the complete answer
Only God has the answer, and he will let us know when the time is right.
until then, argue away, but make sure that you honor Him in all you do,
for even if Hell is a myth, i would not want to spend my eternity there given the mere possibility that it might be a true place.
