...because it seems that things are a little opposite right now.

Have you ever actually considered that the ideas of other people might be correct? Or do you just dismiss them, and start inventing arguments against them as soon as you realize that they don't align easily with your own ideas?

In the afterlife, we learn that Teilhard de Chardin (a Jesuit Paleontogist) was basically correct. Evolution was the means by which God worked creation. All of the complicated natural laws and scientific rules were designed by God.
I always am amazed by how people of faith and people of science seem to be unable to communicate. From a faith perspective, the question is who did this. The answer is God. While that is an adequate answer from a faith perspective, it is not an adequate answer from a scientific perspective. Science is concerned with the how did it happen and how does the natural order work? For a scientist, an answer saying that God did it merely tells the who, not the how. Because God exists outside of the natural order, God did it does not explain how the natural order works.

Having been raised a catholic, I HATED any thought of God and anytime religion was brought up in conversation, I would just remain quiet - otherwise, I would spit fire! I denounced this faith when I turned 15 and it was not until I reached my early 30's, when encountered the witnesses and openly invited them to chat with me. Before, my husband would invite them in for chats but I would hide and then demand to know why he was entertaining them! Yep, I have a vague memory of seeing them around and about, and did all I could to not be noticed! So I became a witness because out of all the other religious literature I had read, I found theirs to be, how can I put it - like coming home! ALL my questions were answered and I was in awe with it all and was pretty ashamed that I considered them a cult in the first place! It was whilst I was studying, that I realised whether I liked it or not, I had to come out of my comfort zone and dedicate myself to Jehovah - for I could not deny He was the truth and knew that if I did to take the plunge (lol literal too), I would regret it deeply! I am a quiet person and do not like being on show, so becoming a witness was a major step forward to becoming on show and it petrified me! Best decision - other than my marriage - that I have ever made:D

Evolution is real, it is happening everyday right before our eyes.
I think what you really mean is the explanation of the origins of life through the Theory of Evolution. So Yes, that will be the pseudo-science and creationism will be the truth. Frankly, I don't think we will be having this discussion after we are dead.
Hope this helps,

I think it's interesting that you posted this question in Biology and not in abnormal psychology.
I suggest that you separate your body from your soul and have the answer revealed unto you.
Have a nice day!

In the afterlife... anything can happen.
Because it's imaginary. - Knock yourself out.
Look buddy, I've seen dead,
and dead is dead, nothing else.

If there were an after life, the truth would still be true and your sly verbosity would still not be.
