Yay, now you're getting it!!!! :p
Now, just read your BIBLE (ignore the meanie-face verses) until your brain rationalizes it all into making sense, and you'll be on your way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the other way around. Evolution is logical. The bit of dust and the rib story is not logical.

If you've ever been to a crematorium to collect the ashes of someone who has been cremated, you will see bones and dust.
Literal bones, dust and ashes.
Of course, if you refuse to believe, you will next argue:
"Then show me how man was made. I won't be convinced till I see the Creator in action."
Go and ask the Creator then. None of us can answer that . It is really beyond the scope of human knowledge.
That's the problem, I think with evolution: trying to piece together something that is beyond our scope of knowledge and forcing them to look like it's logical and neat when there are so many missing peices.
Till the day we discover the secret of using 100% or just 30% of our total brain power, we have to be contented and humble enough to acknowledge that we don't have all the answers.

It is entitled: " Dust thou art, and unto dust thou shall return"
It may answer partly what you are asking .
Hope it helps.

if it involves a divine creator, yes. if evolution and the big bang is true then i would like to know where the "something" that caused it came from allegedly nothing. something from nothing sounds a lot less logical than life from dust and a rib.

Evolution is quite logical. How do you rationalize the thought of a metaphysical being creating the universe and the earth only 6-10,000 years ago. In actuality the chances of a "God" existing are around equal to the chance of (keep in mind... Extremely low not imposible) of Me!!! Being the All Mighty myself!!!

Only Ha Adham was formed of the dust of the ground.
Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Mankind was made or created.
Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Eve was from Ha Adham's rib. This word rib means curve or DNA a double spiral helix.

Yes. It's just like the song by Kansas.
"Dust and a rib,
all we are is dust and a rib........"

Wrong. Evolution IS logical, which is why so many believe in it. Dust and ribs is the truth.

Not necessarily. I think actually that Genesis, while accurate, had to have a few words changed so that people of that time could understand it.
Dust=matter
Rib=DNA
When you do that with Genesis, it actually makes a lot of sense. Couple that with what we know of science, and we have a full explanation of everything.

I still want to know what "created from a rib" even means, because I have no idea.
