Although I understand your need to believe in a higher being, I do not share that belief, nor do I find it necessary for anybody else to do so, or to share in mine.
You seem not to understand what science is.
Science is a set of fact-based theories which are accepted at the moment, and any theory can at any moment be revised, improved on, or discarded altogether because a more convincing theory has been accepted. In practice some scientists feel the same need as other humans to "believe" in things, and are reluctant to give up their pet theories, whatever the arguments are.
But you can't expect to find facts that disprove evolution by asking Christians to supply them.
One scientist, Teilhard de Chardin, was a Christian, a Jesuit, and he got in trouble with his church for writing a book that supported Darwins theory.
It did not stop him from believing in God as the moving force behind it.
All this talk about "creationism" is just not based on any facts.
If you want facts, you turn to science, if you want mythology, to the Bible. Many people do both and can live with it quite happily.
Why won't you?

By definition, a "theory" can't be disproved. So the "theory of gravity" hasn't been disproved, it just hasn't been completely proven. Same with evolution. Ideas are called a hypothesis, then when lots of evidence supports it, and it hasn't been disproven, it becomes a theory.
Also, we didn't evolve from apes, we share a common ancestor. That is one of the most basic aspects of the theory. But I'm guessing you haven't done lots of research on the subject.

a: religion is based on supposition, regardless of fact. it cannot explain, but demands belief based on what you are told, noit what can be proven.
b. evolution gives a scientific explanation, supported by facts and observation regardless of what others say, and can, to within a certain level of certianty be proven.
c: religion excludes any possibility of error possibility
d: evolution has been shown to erroneous at some points such that new explanations are required to account for the errors found, regardless of what anyone believes.
e: religion can't prove anything, but assumes everything it says
f: evolution must be suppoted by facts, and assumes nothing without factual evidence to support it.
get over it! religion is fine, but so is ignorance.

Why can god not work through evolution. God, being all knowing, would know exactly how to tinker with the primordial soup in order to get humans. Would you be so pious as to assume that you know how god works. Why is it that god has to have blinked us into existence. As for disproving evolution, good luck, the evidence is against you.

To creationists who save up with the concern of evolution this isn't information because it change into already documented over a decade in the past. i'm satisfied you revealed the article hyperlink. My community newspaper revealed a shorter version of that article. If I had no longer examine the longer article you correct to i does no longer have examine that the college professor ADMITTED that, "They nonetheless have some UNDISCOVERED ancestor that likely lived 2 million to three million years in the past, a time that has no longer LEFT a lot FOSSIL record," so that you may want to objectively note of that the above actuality shows you'd be desiring to have blind faith and believe that there might want to be some style of unknown ancestor even inspite of the actuality that there's no foundation or evidence of it. evidence isn't mandatory for far of evolutionary considered universal. I continuously ask your self why maximum atheists or agnostics do not purely say something better truthful like, " ok God does exists yet i do not favor to settle for Him," fairly of attempting to cajole themselves and others to settle for a theory that has no observable evidence of transmutation of species and is going adversarial to the actual undeniable actuality that significant styles of species are got here across completely stepped forward jointly in the earliest fossil record devoid of predecessors- the Cambrian Explosion that is not often defined through evolutionists. thanks for the submit!

Religion is Faith based. You believe even though you can not see it.
Science is based on observation and trying to prove a theory.
When you try to prove religion or disprove science you are getting away from the essence of faith and the core of religion.

things do evolve, that is a scientific fact. but i don't believe that all life evolved from "x" for instance... animals can adapt to their environments, (growing or shedding hair when a change occurs) i believe that God created everything and that over the years things have made slight evolutions. i don't worry about arguing with the people that disagree. you're not likely to change their minds and it's just not worth the aggravation.

I think there is so much to know about paleontology that I really have no idea anymore. To fully understand evolution, you'd have to get a doctorate so I can't really disprove something I don't fully understand.
