How would you tell the difference between what we have and a universe that evolved over billions of years?

By simply looking at what has been created...you wouldn't be able to tell. I know that what I am going to say next is often called a cop out from us Christians, but it is the truth so I can not say anything else.
Most people begin with hope...then it becomes faith when they begin to believe in what they cannot see...but once a person becomes committed to God and to his son Jesus Christ, something really marvelous happens. The faith (believing in something that you cannot see or prove even to yourself) becomes knowledge. When the Holy Spirit enters you, you become changed. I don't mean that you change how you do things to please God or out of fear of God. I mean you actually change inside. It is like having been blind all my life, then suddenly being able to see the world for the first time.
I am not a scientist and I certainly am not intellectually capable of debating evolution versus Creation with any authority but I do know what I have living inside of me. It is absolutely awesome. God has proven himself to me a hundred times over. I can't doubt what His word says to me....science or no science.

I think that if everything evolved by chance, over billions of years, there would be less love, less beauty, less meaning, less structure and even more chaos (in everything) than exists even now. This is a VERY interesting question to think about. I'm picturing one of those sand art / sand picture thingys with lots of detail. An intelligent being could create a beautiful work of art from colored sand, but shake it once, twice, a hundred times - will it ever look as beautiful as it did originally? Yes, you could add some water and bubbles to direct the sand in certain directions, to create mountains and such, but it will NEVER be as beautiful as the original work of art that it once was. Yes, you could say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and chaos can be beautiful at times, but it will never have the depth of structure and meaning as the original. And it will probably never touch the soul as deeply as the original.

Read more in religions.. It might make sense to you.
And sooner or later, it might all make sense to you, and you'll know what's right and what you should believe in.
