The only evolution that has ever happened is small changes within the same specie. They do not cross that bound. A black man for instance is the result of thousands of years, of being in a warm climate. However two black couples will never have a white child, because its not in the genes. So No we were not once Monkeys and before that rodents. We have always been Humans.

Evolution wasn't created. It is a natural process, a consequence of the 19 free variables in the Einstein-Quantum equations. (Oh, it looks like 8 of these free variables can be reduced into the remaining 11, but for now, 19 free variables).
Once the four forces and the particle families are set by the values of those variables, the rest builds itself.
Imagine this:
You have a sheet of very fine graph paper. The middle horizontal line is labeled in real numbers (2+0i, -5+0i, 73.291+0i, etc...) . The middle vertical line is measured in complex numbers (0+1i, 0+5.28318273i).
You pick a point -- say, 2+1i. You square it (3+4i), then add the original value (5+5i). Square that (0+50i) then add the original value(2+51i). You do this square+original process 100 times. If the thing gets more than 2 units distance away from the center after an add, color the original point black.
Two rules: a complex square and a complex add.
And you're going to come up with the infinitely detailed Mandelbrot set.
All because you defined two simple rules.

Scientists say that evolution is only a theory. Hence, "The Theory of Evolution"... Much of science is made up of theories. Sad thing is, they are teaching it in schools as a fact. If we really came from monkey's... WHY are there still monkeys?? lol
My friend and I were just talking about this the other day. How scientists time lines are completely off! In the bible it says in the beginning of the new world, the earth existed basically as a big ball of water with no life at all. If dinosaurs were really alive before us... They would have had to be preserved underneath the ocean, the land brought back up, and then somehow still survived the flood with noah.
We will probably never know how the earth even got here in the first place. God never tells us.... For all we know when he creates the sun and stars, maybe He just lit them back up. Its just the story of the creation of the new earth.

There is, perhaps, room amidst Darwinian and Big Bang theories to believe that a higher power had a hand in the creation of the universe. HOWEVER, just because we don't currently know how the universe first began does not mean that:
1.) We will not find out eventually
2.) A supernatural explanation is the only only possible
or 3.) A Judeo-Christian God therefore created Eden, Adam from dirt, and Eve from his rib.
I can't answer your question too specifically, because frankly, the poor grammar and spelling causes it to make little sense.

Well evolution is a theory that was largely created by Charles Darwin, using a process of scientific research. But I imagine you're actually asking what created the first life forms which evolved into modern organisms, yes? The answer is abiogenesis, which is another scientific theory completely independent from evolution.
And evolution is NOT how we're different from one day to the next. Read a book.

It is hardly adequate to say that most atheists are atheists simply because of the fact of evolution. This alone does not prove nor disprove anything but the account of creation given in the Bible. What it does prove, however, is that incredibly complex organisms can come into existence without any sort of divine intervention whatsoever.
So science and reason have once again pushed God ever farther out of the universe. Which begs the question: what reason does God have for existing at all?

RE: Evolution and the Law of Thermodynamics
Thermodynamics and chaos theory DO apply to evolution. While it is true that the second law pertains to closed systems, and the earth is not a closed system, this only applies to the earth's energy budget and total mass. But evolution is not about the earth, it's about life and information. Evolution claims that new information can be generated via random mutations. But noise is not information. And only an intelligence can pick out potentially useful patterns that can be converted into signals. Random evolution cannot store up potentially useful mutations if they have no useful function. How useful is the trigger of a mousetrap without the rest of the system? Besides, the ONLY documented incident of evolution took place over a matter of days, not millenia. It required having specific conditions, AND the specific INTENT of a hyperspace-capable intelligence, in this case, the scientists or technicians working in the lab.
Some say that Chaos theory doesn't apply because evolution works by natural selection that is 'counter-chance' favoring only those traits that are good while discarding all the bad mutations, so chance only plays a minimal role. But how does natural selection decide what traits are 'good' if they are not immediately useful, like for instance, the transition from light sensitive cells on the surface to putting them behind a liquid reservoir? Logically, such immediately useless 'improvements' would be thrown out in the same way that bad mutations get deleted. It's not 'counter chance' just because evo's wish it so.
Paul Davies and Frederick Hoyle (and others) are raising elaborate objections to the use of chance in explaining natural phenomena. A principle of modern science has emerged in the 1980s called "the anthropic principle." The basic thrust of the anthropic principle is that chance is simply not a valid mechanism to explain the atom or life. If chance is not valid, we are constrained to reject evolutionists' claims and to realize that we are indeed the product of an intelligent God.

This is exactly what I've been saying all along to those Christians who would reject any notion of Evolution! It is not an atheist theory...if anything, its an agnostic one without deference for or against any deity.
The problem with those who don't understand evolution, or simply reject it, is that they've been taught by some religious leader that to understand it and not reject it means a rejection of the story of the Garden of Eden, therefor a rejection of the fall of mankind (by Adam and Eve eating the proverbial apple), and therefor no need for Jesus.

You are right, evolution has nothing to do with whether there is a higher power or not. Asking who created evolution is like asking who created gravity, or who made the sky blue. Evolution (and gravity, and blue skies) are properties of the planet we live on and the life on it. There is no schism between evolution and religious faith. I am an atheist, but I don't see why people of faith reject evolution. One does not preclude the other.

Evolution disproves creationism. Disproving creationism disproves God. The litttle differences one day to the next...Imagine that taking place over hundreds of thousands of years...EVOLUTION in it finest. Genetics and the changes in genetics are science, and there is no room for God in science.
