Evolution, like everything and everyone else.

BOTH. Evolution in no way excludes God or the fact that human beings are the most important creation on this earth. The spirit of God was upon this earth long before anything else existed and it is inside everyone one of us. Evolution did not occur in the way that Darwin believed, but that doesn't mean that things don't change over time. The most important thing on this earth and in the universe is the soul of man. It is also the only thing that is eternal. Do not forget this!

There is no reason that the two things, god and evolution, need to be mutually exclusive.

If you believe in god, and that god is the driving force behind all of the natural laws in the universe, then there is nothing in the theory of evolution that says that god cannot exist.

If you believe that god set up the universe to follow certain laws, then the ability for frequencies of genes in a population of organisms to change over time in response to natural selective pressures from their environment would be one of those systems that god set up.

The only disparity between evolution and theology is between the evidence we see in the geological record, fossil anatomy, modern comparative anatomy, genetic analysis, and all other observable, measureable, quantifiable scientific measures, and what it says in a few sentences in Genesis.

The account in Genesis contradicts itself, and cannot be taken as literally true by anyone who is willing to accept logic and reasoning as their guides. However, if you are willing to accept it as allegory and myth, then there is no difference between god and evolution. In fact, you could say that evolution is just another way of saying god.

Evolution is a fact? You have got to be kidding. Evolution is based on the coupling of a mathematical impossibility (random mutations produced both life and useful characteristics) with a tautology (survival of the fittest) to describe the development of life. The fossil record shows no evidence of transitional forms, only fully formed organisms. This is why they came up with punctuated equilibrium.
Small changes within species, such as a bacterial immunity to antibiotics is not evolution. The bacteria are still bacteria, they did not turn into mice. And After observing bacteria for about a hundred years, no one has seen them change to anything but bacteria, even though there are millions of generations that have come and gone. Consider that the evolutionists claim humans were Australopithecus about 1 million generations ago. Evolution is the only way to be an intellectually satisfied atheist. That doesn't make it true.
Ask an evolutionist: How could evolution be proved false?

Fancier: "a lot of those so called "lacking hyperlinks" are extremely totally form creatures." all of them are. each creature that has ever lived and reproduced has been a very formed creature. Your want for a nil.5-some thing 0.5-some thing else is a effect of your lack of expertise approximately how evolution works, and is not something extra desirable than a popular creationist straw guy. "a lot of those "lacking hyperlinks" have been chanced on in undemanding terms in fragments like in undemanding terms slightly a cranium or a tooth and not an entire creature and a technique or the different scientists got here up with those creatures even even with the indisputable fact that they had no theory what creature it even replaced into." Which fossils are you referencing in particular? What are your issues of the approaches used in comparing them and the conclusions reached? "while they chanced on a tooth that they pronounced replaced right into a humanlike creature in undemanding terms it later became out to belong to a pig." And? there have been numerous faked fossils, inclusive of a few that have been presupposed to be human ancestors. They have been all found out by evaluation with the plethora of tangible human ancestor fossils by scientists, not creationists with their palms of their ears screaming that it wasn't actual.

Evolution

If this is a poll, my answer is Evolution. However, if you want to understand what evolution is, and how its mechanisms work, you should try with a good biology textbook; there are many.

I'd make a tiny alteration to the wording of your question: "Evolution, or just God?" because writing "just evolution" makes it sound like it's a simple magical solution, when it's the other way around ;-)

God used evolution to produce them.

Evolution is about as close to a fact as we can get in science and in that respect is similar to plate techtonics. For those who think it is unproven, I would say that they simply haven't looked at the evidence. As a geologists, I can relate numerous "facts" that dispute much of genesis. The earth is billions of years old. Life is billions of years old. Life did not form from a rock but from a complex set of organic chemicals. For me that doesn't exclude god or spiritual things but it does exclude such things as god making Eve from Adam's ribs. You cannot compare a mountain of evidence for evolution with old stories from ancient scientifically ignorant people.

Evolution is fact. I believe in God, so my understanding is that God set up the basic laws of the universe that allowed the development of life to happen--in the way that science has proven.

God got it right. Genesis got it wrong.
