Evolution, it seems is on the right path at least. The evidence points that way. Creation advocates have yet to show me any tangible evidence to the contrary. So, anyone care to show me?

Evolution has minor evidence leading up to primates, and mountians of evidence going from primate to man. However, beacuse this contradicts the bible, and because some need to cling to the bible has the work of God and not the work of man (lest they have to think for themselves), they will renounce fact and worship fiction.
Just as they did when they said the earth was flat, and the sun revolved around it, and demons made people sick, and spilling salt was sinful, and witches were to be murdered, etc.

I do not try to argue a point that there is no Public Evidence for I personally know God. but if I did not I would need more proof than a fish turning into a Ape then into a Man, I still do not see where the intelligence is in the Evolution theory, why do only Humans drive cars, I have yet to see a frog drive one.

I'll tell you what creationism has going for it that Evolutionary theory does not.
1. It offers a quick and simple solution for those folks that don't like complexity, or think very much. God snapped his fingers and poof it was done! No more thinking involved. All you've got is a few pages of genisis to read, not the thousands upon thousands of pages of reading required to get a true understanding of what we know about genetics, evolution, and chemistry.
2. People like to be put on a pedestal, and made to fill special. Evolution doesn't coddle people, creationism does.

The problem lies in the POLARITY that people make it out to be, as if they were speaking of oil and water rather than, say, sugar and water where the POSSIBILITY exists that one can be viewed as a solvent --instead of a repellant-- and be readily dissolved as it 'becomes' a part of the other element. Why on Earth not? Who's to say or make such judgment calls anyhow?
Evolution in and of itself is quite plausible to the erudite scholar of science and for fact finding studies. It is a subject that is open TO ALL scholars, regardless of one's spiritual inclinations or self-absorbed incantations.
But many fail, or even resist, to make it inclusive of the entire gamut of Creation and all the complexities it implies... which in and of itself is a continuous, developing process as we come to understand it better each day.
There's even a great saying that goes something like this: "For we are not mere human beings, since WE DO STRIVE to be human becomings.."
Now, UNLESS you have all the odds in your favor, if you ever set foot in Las Vegas or Atlantic City with your ENTIRE LIFE SAVINGS and hard-earned cash in tow, with the grandiose idea of doubling or tripling all your money when you leave the place, it would really be WISE of you NOT TO BET IT ALL AGAINST THE HOUSE!
Instead, listen to the voice of those who've been there before and have found out the wisdom in what they say.
After all, it's only YOUR OWN SOUL... so, it's YOUR CALL.
Peace be with you!

Well, most creationists believe that the Bible is the truth, and since the Bible states (pretty clearly) that God created the Earth in 6 days and that he made Adam and Eve after the other animals, creationism *must* be true.
Of course, there is VERY little (if any) evidence to support creationism outside of religious texts.

What is incomplete about evolution? It has been proved countless times, it's effects can be noted by anyone with a high school education, and no one has ever disproved it's existence.

Don't waste your energy trying to prove the bible wrong. Even if you had all the holes to evolution cleared up, Christians will still believe what they believe is the Truth.
