I could build a giant library of misinformation and ignorance based on the misapprehension of science and ethics that fundies push on all of us. The flagship of stupidity is the Creationist museum in Tenn with dinosaurs on the ark. Frig-gen idiots.

I doubt if evolution occurred randomly. There must be so many natural laws in place that we have yet to discover, like the nature of quantum physics. But as some one else said evolution is a process, God is an entity, big difference. Besides Darwin's work was never complete but a work in progress and since his time others have discovered things that add to or contradict some of the Darwinian theory of evolution.

Yes. The persons who support evolution have more ferver
and dogmatism, than religious persons, in the name of
science.
Regression of species: Since evolution is supposed to be continual and random, we should expect the same process that caused the emergence of humans from apes to also produce apes from humans. The law of natural selection would not prevent this from happening, because apes remain a stable life form, able to survive current environmental conditions. However, the fact remains that no one has ever observed this regression in evolution. All the findings point to a only one-way evolutionary process something that cannot be explained by the theory of natural selection.
Complex Organs: Darwin himself was puzzled when explaining the evolution of complex organs such as eyes. To date there is no satisfactory explanation of how an organ like an eye can develop purely at random. Further, major body systems such as the respiratory, circulatory and digestive systems are each made up of several organs (each a complex one) that must work together in harmony. That this occur as a result of a random process is plausible, but no more believable than those monkeys in front of typewriters reproducing the entire collection of Shakespeares writings!
Brain "Programming": As complex as individual body systems are, the brain is an even more complex organ. Even if we assume that somehow after many different random combinations, there appeared an animal with eyes, the fact remains that we dont actually "see" with our eyes. The actual perception of vision is carried out by the brain. The eyes only carry the information up to the brain. It is the brain that processes the information to visualize the object. How would the theory of evolution explain the brain "programming" required for the eyes to work?
Number of permutations required: Lets say we agree that billions and billions of combinations of random mutations in genes take place before a new stable form (that supersedes the original form) is reached. This would have to take place in a relatively short time-span of millions of years in order to explain the diversity that is present in nature today. This means that on a daily basis there is some mutant animal or a plant being born somewhere in the world. In that case, isnt it amazing that no one has ever observed "freak" intermediate mutations of species?

Why do atheists always deny the God theory.
I mean you can put up with the theory of the Tachyon, even though it breaks the known rules. Why can't God simply be a step below that. Bottom of the ladder.
There are many theories. The God one is on the bottom, no one takes it seriously except a few billions fools, then we come to the Tachyon which has a following of maybe 20 people and it's more valid than God.
But at least you include ALL the POTENTIALS.
To exclude a POTENTIAL is to be a bad scientist.

In the book 'The Darwin Legend', James Moore painstaking documents the fact that there is no substantial evidence that Darwin himself did not consistently hold to his evolutionary paradigm.Many claim that Darwin had a Deathbed conversion. I wouldn't put my faith on a person's beliefs if there was a chance that, that person renounced his own theory. As fo me and my house we shall "Bow down to the God of Truth!"

It's not a god, it's a scientific process. And what's wrong with chance? I'd rather live with chance than with fate. In case you haven't studied probability, everything in life comes down to chance. A microorganism living in a puddle would think that the puddle had been specially created for him-until the water in the puddle evaporated.

Darwin was a man not God. The Living God is not made of matter & atoms. God's Word, combined with human history, clearly teaches that "our core problems are spiritual in nature" and spiritual problems require spiritual solutions. God made man. Science confines itself to the objective, physical world of measurement and relationship structure. But we are actually dealing with things larger than ourselves, while science can deal only with what it can control.
(Romans 1:25) " They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things, rather than the Creator- who is forever praised. Amen.....<>< <><

The story goes:
God created everything and wants us to believe on faith alone.
Therefore it would stand to reason:
God created evolution so science could have a theory which continues to force us to believe by faith alone. If science couldn't explain the existence of life through evolution, creation would be the only explanation...where is the "faith" in that?
I relate best to Einstein's thoughts on God:
" I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil. My God created laws that take care of that. His universe is not ruled by wishful thinking, but by immutable laws." -Albert Einstein...

Er, no-one believes that evolution created the world.
Evolution is not "blind chance".
Chance is not "divine", nor is it a "deity".
Congratulations on spelling deity right, though. It's about the only thing in this "question" that's correct.

In fact, evolution by natural selection is almost the opposite of chance. But you don't really want to learn why now, do you?
