They do it because it disagrees with their book. And that is the ONLY reason. If it matched and had 1% of the evidence they would be all for it.

I don't deny evolution, because I've seen it. Chickens today are three times bigger than their counterparts two centuries ago. Of course, humans toyed with their DNA to get them like that. But, try all you want, you can't turn a duck into a chicken, and humans didn't evolve from apes. Even Darwin would agree with me on this one.

It depends on what you mean by "evolution." If you refer to microevolution, then yes, I believe it, because it has been observed and has evidence. If you refer to macroevolution, then no, I don't believe it, because it has NOT been observed, ever.
Reasonable people demand reasonable evidence, and macroevolution has -never- been observed. I deny macroevolution not because I haven't ever noticed macroevolution in my own life, but because nobody else has!

Judging from the responses, people need to brush up on their Science. Specifically with the observed instances of Sepciation.

I don't deny evolution, I just think people misinterpret it.
I don't see it as I descended from apes, I see it as I ascended from them.

People evolve because people used to be shorter, but people evolve into better people, other species also improve, but they stay the same species, they dont transform into something completely different-that is absurd and no one has ever been able to prove that theory at all.

Do you have any proof of evolution?

It sounds like you're talking about two different things here.
