Personally, I don't think that one necessarily disproves the other.

I believe that there does not necessarily have to be a "versus", as the two concepts are NOT mutually exclusive. A person can be a theistic evolutionist and believe in both. I used to. Now I am an agnostic and not really sure what I believe any more, or if I even actually believe in anything for sure. At least not much of anything. I believe I am alive. Hell, I guess I KNOW that, lol. But I do not know if evolution is true or if there is a God. May be both. Must be one or the other at least, as I can not think of a third possibility. At least one that makes much sense. The idea of an eternal life, with reincarnation, would replace God with man, or make the two one in the same, along with a Steady-state universe. But I do not think it is a very good third alternative.

Evolution and Creationism are two completely separate subjects, and one does not necessarily cancel out the other. Evolution theory only addresses what happened to life AFTER it began, not HOW it began. (that's abiogenesis)
It is entirely possible that God created the universe and uses evolution as one of His tools.
The only time when evolution theory and creationism conflict is when you have creationists insisting in Genesis literalism, that God created the Earth as it is today, only 6000 years ago, and when an evolutionist insists that evolution theory proves there is no God. (which it cannot do)

If evolution was reall and the earth was millions of billions of years old well then I have a question...every year or so the earth gets closer to the sun or the sun to the earth but anyway if that was true and the earth was million or billions of years old then why isnt the earth burning to dust?? hmmm? i mean even if the earth was ALOT farther then than it is now than the earth back then would have been too cold for the animals and everything would have died! so I'm definatly going with the idea that God created the universe and He is the ONE AND ONLY GOD!!!
btw if evolution was true and God didn't exist then where did that one tiny little peice of dust or particle come from that made this earth? just a question for you to ponder on!
oh ya and btw I am a Christian if you haven't already figured that out

If one religions does not believe in Evolution that does not mean Evolution becomes an Atheists' baby
hinduism believes in evolution...
God evolved from chemicals as consciousness, became plants...and then animals...and now human
The evolution is still on

I believe in God. It's a lot easier to believe in God than Evolution. If we live because of Evolution,why are there no new species???

Evolution is the continual revealing of God on Earth. Therefore, God is evolution.
The shift in beliefs from "God created Adam and Eve" to "Man evolved from less complex organisms" is itself a divine revelation. The mistake is to then collapse the world into dumb matter. Because even dumb matter had to come from somewhere. Big bang explanations are on par with creationism when it comes to describing where the first things came from.
God did create man because God did create all the forms of life and dumb matter that man is descended from and depends on. Man is closer to God because man is the culmination of all things that came before man.

I think God created Evolution as a really useful tool to spread life across the planet. But it's just a tool, and the god 'Chance' can't operate it properly.

Evolution will pass, but the word of God will live forever.

There's no real proof of either but evolution is more believable, god just sounds like a myth.

Evolution happened after God finished all the creating stuff.
The evolutionists have YET to give me an answer on how Blacks, Chinese, Reds, Brown and Whites happened and why nature SEGREGATES.
With God you have a basis for an answer
With RANDOMEMNESS, how do you get segration?
With RANDOMENESS how do you get all these colors of SENIENT man!
And WHAT color was HOMO ERECTUS
I'm still waiting for that answer and so are Blacks, Chinese, Whites, Mexicans and Indians.
Come on now, Evolutionists, WHAT COLOR was the skin of Homo Erectus!
