I cannot make you believe something that you don't want to believe, but I urge you to use discernment, reason and logic when thinking aobut evolution- all the things evolutionists accuse us of not using , but really- do the principles of evolution make sense? If this has taken place over the course of millions of years, little by little, then we are being decieved when we are told we are looking for "the missing link" we are looking for millions of missing links- besides that- there are so many common sense, scientific questions that evolution just cannot answer- no matter how you twist it.
If you are really interested in education and not just disproving something that does not fit your mold- read this article, it is fun reading but very informative and common sense-

here are other bits of interesting fact for you to ponder :
Charles Dawson, a British lawyer and amateur geologist announced in 1912 his discovery of pieces of a human skull and an apelike jaw in a gravel pit near the town of Piltdown, England . . . Dawson's announcement stopped the scorn cold. Experts instantly declared Piltdown Man (estimated to be 300,000 to one million years old), the evolutionary find of the century. Darwin's missing link had been identified. Or so it seemed for the next 40 or so years. Then, in the early fifties . . . scientists began to suspect misattribution. In 1953, that suspicion gave way to a full-blown scandal: Piltdown Man was a hoax . . . tests proved that its skull belonged to a 600-year-old woman, and its jaw to a 500-year-old orangutan from the East Indies." Our Times--the Illustrated History of the 20th Century (Turner Publishing, 1995, page 94).
Science Fiction
The Piltdown Man fraud wasn't an isolated incident. The famed "Nebraska Man" was built from one tooth, which was later found to be the tooth of an extinct pig. "Java Man" was found in the early 20th Century, and was nothing more than a piece of skull, a fragment of a thigh bone and three molar teeth. The rest came from the deeply fertile imaginations of plaster of Paris workers. "Heidelberg Man" came from a jawbone, a large chin section and a few teeth. Most scientists reject the jawbone because it's similar to that of modem man. Still, many evolutionists believe that he's 250,000 years old. No doubt they pinpointed his birthday with good old carbon dating. Now there's reliable proof. Not according to Time magazine (June 11, 1990). They published an article in the science section that was subtitled, "Geologists show that carbon dating can be way off." Don't look to "Neanderthal Man" for any evidence of evolution. Recent genetic DNA research indicates the chromosomes do not match those of humans. They do match those of bipedal primates (apes).
What does Science Say?
Here are some wise words from a few respected men of science: "Evolution is a fairy tale for grown-ups. This theory has helped nothing in the progress of science. It is useless." (Professor Louis Bounoure, Director of Research, National Center of Scientific Research). "Evolution is unproved and unprovable." (Sir Arthur Keith--he wrote the foreword to the 100th edition of, Origin of the Species). "Scientists who go about teaching that evolution is a fact of life are great con-men, and the story they are telling may be the greatest hoax ever." (Dr. T. N. Tahmisian, Atomic Energy Commission, USA).
"To suppose that the eye . . . could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree." Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species
A great resource for some education that is logical and common sense is called "The Science or Evolution: expand your mind" You can get this DVD from WayoftheMaster.com

Creation, hands down. Everything in the universe is so meticulously fine tuned that there's no possible way life could've happened purely by accident. The theory of evolution is just that - a theory, not a fact. The idea this theory suggests (in a nutshell, life on Earth nothing more than a "happy accident") doesn't make much sense. It's basically equivalent to waiting millions of years for a kitchen stocked full of baking ingredients to somehow evolve into a birthday cake complete with lit candles with no outside help. If nothing else, evolution ("life created itself") requires a lot more faith than creation ("life was created by an intelligent being").
Interestingly enough, God and science aren't mutually exclusive of one another. If anything, the more we learn about the universe scientifically, the more the evidence points to an intelligent creator. As Albert Einstein once said, "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."
For those of you who are still on the fence about this, here's an interesting article dealing with God and science that can help you out (click below).

I vote for both. Evolution is the built in way God created the universe and everything in it. In my mind, it the very complexity of it shows God's involvement. Look at today's scientists. Yes, they can create countless wonders using technology and science. But to create something which can not only reproduce, but can evolve in order to survive easier, that's something they have difficulty doing. Yet we live in a world filled with these wonders, all naturally occuring. I don't see why people don't see God's handiwork in the process of evolution. When you think about it, it is pure genius. The forethought and wisdom that would have went into it are mindboggling.

the funny thing about evoultion is it has so many flaws the bibles words have stayed the same, like if we evolved from apes why are their still apes? the bible says God created many creatures many more then exist today, could that prehistoric ancestor actully be some form of intelligent ape? also look at the world look at its beauty and intelligent design and you decide if their is no God because how can such beauty just simply exist? ok now the bible says the earth Man has walked the earth for 60000 years. the evoultion say 500billion so they say God is fake but in the bible it says one day to man is a blink of an eye to God and to 1 day to god is like thousands of years so the earth was created 7 days maybe those 7 days were actully alotta years and thats why the earth seems old but it specifically says man have walked the earth over 6000 years so many people misinterprate the bible
theirs also be biblical finds like chariots under the sea of which the bible says mosses parted. and in the bibvle it speaks of animals so large they could swallow the sea the bible seems to never change but evoultion changes every year evoultion is like a person who constaly changes their mind or a two faced person the bible stays straight. the earth is older then what man has walked on man has only existed for 60000

Well, creation says god magically made people out of dirt.
Evolution says some form of imperfect replicator eventually made humans from dirt.
Either way, we came from dirt. You'll have to look into the details to see which one you think is more rational.

Evolution.
There is no evidence of a creator, just opinions.

Evolution is based on facts, evidence and reality.
Creation is based on mythology and fables.
See the difference?

Evolution. It's based on logic & evidence- not the subjectivism of man.

Reading the evidence for evolution may take a while:

Reading the evidence for creation is easy:
"God did it, I say so"
you choose.

I suggest you study both before you open this kind of worms, again. Both involve belief. None can be proven, empirically. You need to make your own choice.
