It has to do with science: gravity (or lack of, therefore). The sun orbits the earth.
The ocean only comes so far because the sand/ground/rocks/whatever it's resting on is curved downward, so that it's kind of in the shape of a bowl.
The moon is just the shadow of the sun we see when it's shining on other parts of the world.
Evolution? Well, nobody can really explain this. But I'm 99.9% sure that a powerful inhuman being more intelligent than anybody who inhabits the earth had anything to do with this.
Sure, I believe Jesus existed at one time. Sure, I believe there is a book called the Bible. What I don't believe is that there is a heaven/hell. When you die I believe it's more of a state of mind than anything. I'm not one to believe in the supernatural, although I do believe in ghosts to some extent.
-*-*-The bible is a book that's been re-written into many, many different languages. Some of it is apparently still in code. After being translated into so many languages, don't you tihnk at some point or time it would get altered? Someway, somehow? Not even a little bit? Think about this: if you were to send the message "the sky is blue" through a classroom of thirty-some people, by the time it got to the other side it could very well have been changed to something along the lines of, "a guy is cute". See where I'm going with this?-*-*-
There is no proof of God existing, but the mind can be a very powerful thing when it really believes in something.
Your arguments are weak. These are simple geographical features of the earth that happen scientifically. I don't mean to be rude or disrespectful in any way, these are just my opinions and beliefs.

The sun comes up in the east and set in the west because the earth spins cockwise witht the gravitasional pull from the atmophere.
The ocean tides come up because of the Moon that is pulling it from ashore.
The moon doesnt hide in the evening. As the earth spins toward the sun, the light covers the image of space therefor you cant see the image of the moon. When it's nice time, it is when the earth spins away from the sun with lights, the moon shines at night and you can see it.
Evulution spelled Evolution by the way and it explains more than what the bible explain. Science is based on facts not magical stuff that happens like Jesus came back to life and etc. There's always an answer on why there's trees and oceans and dirt and grass but to relgious finatic like yourself, the only explaination is God and if people question on how God created the earth, you have no explaination about it.

So, just because evolution can't explain everything, you'll assume it's god? I mean, it's true: we haven't found an explanation to everything, but in former times, people believed that storms and volcano eruptions, for example, were manifestations of god. Now it's known that there are physical reactions that generate that.
And in connection with your examples, Nobody taught, told or showed anything to the sun, the ocean and the moon. The relative position of the moon and the sun depends actually on where you stand, or where the earth stands in relation to the sun and the moon. And the ocean comes only this far, just because there's no more water. If there were more water, the oceans could even cover the whole earth. That is probably going to happen if we humans (not god) keep neglecting ecology, and letting the earth in the poles melt.
Sorry, but you haven't convinced me.

"Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?"
The sun doesn't stand and it doesn't need to be told where to be.
"Who told the ocean you an only come this far?"
No one told the ocean how far to go.
"Who showed the moon where to hide 'til evening?"
The moon doesn't hide.
"Evulution
it cant explain nothing"
I agree, it can't explain nothing, but, it can explain something. The three questions you asked have nothing to do with evolution.
"God his Real
Just look Arround"
Ok, I'm looked around, I don't see god anywhere.

I believe in God, but your questions have nothing to do with that.
Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?
The sun doesn't stand. It placement is only because the earth rotates and orbits the sun, many millions of miles away. This is Gravity and Centripital Force at work
Who told the ocean you an only come this far?
Conveniently, no one did. But GRAVITY pulls all fluids down, just like it hold you and me down to the earth. So the fluids fill the lowest part, and don't move up.
Who showed the moon where to hide 'til evening?
The same answer as the Sun, it doesn't hide. But with Gravity, the moon orbits the earth, and just because you can't see it doesn't mean its playing hide and seek with you.

There's a difference between god and God. You're demonstrating the existence of god by pointing out the edges of science (which, at last check, was claiming that the laws of thermodynamics didn't exist until some time after creation). The problem is that whether you're demonstrating the existence of Yahweh, Allah or Demon-Sultan Azathoth and Shub-Niggurath (black goat of the wood with a thousand young, ia!) is unknown and irrelevant to your evidence. So while I fully expect that there is a god-force outside of the boundaries of science, pointing at the boundaries of science doesn't convince me that it's God.
(Or, as Douglas Adams put it, "In the the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and has generally been regarded as a bad move.")

Exactly. I agree.
Things like what you said are some of the reasons/arguments why I believe that there IS a God, that God is real. While scientists may chalk it up to laws of science, the question is, who invented these laws? Man only discovered them and wrote them down in textbooks, treatises, and scientific journals.
Yes, natural phenomena could be explained quite brilliantly in cause-and-effect, but who caused the very first cause that started everything and set everything into motion?
Someone once said that if there is a watch, there must be a watchmaker.
I believe that's true. Watches don't come out of nowhere.
Just like the universe. If there is a universe, there must be a Creator.
Yes, God is real.

The sun doesn't stand at all. It's always in motion, hurtling through space at an approximate speed of 220 km/second.
The ocean also in constant motion. The waters rise and recede periodically with tides caused by the gravitional pull of the moon. The shape of the seas is also governed by plate techtonics and fluid dynamics.
The moon doesn't hide. It just goes to the other side of our planet or gets drowned out by sunlight.
There is nothing to teach, or tell, or show here.

First, I would like to state that I am a Christian and I believe in God and creation exactly as the Bible explains it.
However, think like an evolutionist for a moment.
There is an infinite amount of space in the universe. This means that, in theory, everything happens somewhere. If the odds for this earth as it is spontaneously happening are 1 in x (make x the biggest number you can possibly think of), it could happen since infinity is greater than x. However, this seems to take just as large (if not larger) a leap of faith than any form of creationism.

Evolution explains a lot, but you have to mix that with Christianity or creationism. You'll find that God created the earth and did so using evolution. God's concept of time is much different than ours. So His seven days could have been hundreds of thousands, even millions, of years. So don't totally discount evolution. Your argument proves nothing. I applaud your effort though. Keep trying. It would be incredible if someone could, once and for all, prove the existence of God.
