Why are we being taught about "Cave Men" and Dinnosaurs? If God created Adam and Eve and they were supposed to the the first "People" ever created.

Evolution isn't a matter of 'when.' You are tall and you take a tall wife and your children will probably be tall. THAT is evolution. You are short and fat, your wife is tall and fat, your children will probably be fat. THAT is evolution.
Neanderthals who could tame dogs to help hunt or protect their camps would live longer than those who suffered wild dog attacks, and to the brilliant family of Neanderthal that domesticated some puppies and their puppies were the ones that continued breeding, passing on their slightly superior intelligence. Meanwhile, their domesticated dogs were being forced to evolve into more docile, loyal creatures, because the 'wild' ones would be removed from the gene pool.
Evolution is very simple, and certainly an obvious fact of life, for anyone who understands it. You are as you are. If you breed, your children will be (partly) the way you are. THAT is evolution. The continued succession of successful genes.
Congrats, you are now on your way to realizing that biblical texts are not to be taken as literal records.
Also, the Earth was created in 6 billion years, not 6 days, and man (along with all other life) emerged in the 6th one-billion year segment, not the 6th day. Do you really think that 2300 years ago there were words to represent 'a billion'? Nuh uh. I say 2300 because the bible is simply a collection of previous texts that had floated around for some number of years independant of Jesus' life.
Dinosaurs were around several hundred million years ago. Only a fool will look at a bone and call it a lie.

No such thing as evolution. "Cave men" "Neanderthal", where nothing more than "deformed" people. Not to make fun of anyone or anything, but look at those with downs syndrome. How they have a similar look. Remember, people use to separate themselves because of things like this. Men and "Dinosaurs existed together. If you get older Webster dictionaries, you will not find the word dinosaur. They were called "dragons" and some do still exist.

Egyptian Royalty are mummified, this suggests that they are preserved. additionally they are in shelters, this suggests that they might not rot. Dinosaur bones are great so decomposition could desire to take a on an identical time as. Apes and human beings proportion a regularly occurring ancestor, they do no longer look promptly comparable. The bones in the museum are likely fairly, that or the fairly bones are saved someplace else to stay faraway from injury. Adam and Eve could now no longer have in all probability began or sustained a inhabitants themselves, it demands sort of 20-40 human beings to construct a inhabitants. it fairly is Nefertiti, by the type.

Allah created Adam[PBUH] first and then Eve[PBUH]. They lived in the Heavens first but subsequently they had to leave the Heavens and then they descended on the Earth by Allah's command. They were not cave men but were taught by Allah.

Well, just maybe the Creation story is just that, a story.
Oh, the dinosaurs died off about 65 million years ago and humans have only existed in the past million years or less depending on what evolutionary step you consider human.
If you want to make any progress in understanding the world you have to give up pretending that primitive stories can give us any scientific understanding.

Maybe Adam and Eve is simply a story simply telling about Man's journey away from the animalistic good and becoming self-aware.

Because there are people out there that believe one thing and others that teach you another. It revolves around religion and it's obviously a major controversy these days.
