Do you need more proof of evolution? How about the bible book of Genesis? It is a two-part creation that resembles evolution. In Genesis God created animals from out of the waters: Fish, everything in the sea, and birds...

And God created great sea-animals, and every living soul that creeps with which the waters swarmed after their kind; and every winged fowl after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
(Gen 1:21)

Then he had a land-based creation:

And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creepers, and its beasts of the earth after its kind; and it was so.
(Gen 1:24)

God gives you at least two examples of creation in your bible.

God said he made things, he did not say how.

An argument of creationists is how do creatures move from the sea to land. Genesis shows two stages of evolution moving from the sea to land and also points to bird feathers evolving from scales from fish. Creationists do not see evolution in the bible. I do, along with the big bang.

well, the bible, my child, is not a very reliable source to proof anything...

This doesn't prove anything regarding evolution. God also created mathematics and the laws of nature/science. So if energy cannot be created nor destroyed, then we come to a point of backtracking energies conversion throughout time to a single point when it was created. Big bang, no, because the big bang is not energy creation, it is energy transfer. If mountains erode, metal rusts, suns fade into oblivion, people grow old....since anything left to its own resources tends from a position or order into chaos....how can a complex, sexually reproducing organism (a heightened state of order) ascend from chaos (a single celled, asexually reproducing microrganism). As long as mountains erode, suns fade out, people grow old and the magnetic sphere surrounding the earth fades, I will not believe that chaos has ever ascended into order.
******************
Good point on the part of the previous post... Microexolution does exist, as the sugar beet grown in South Dakota is exidence of that. From there, Marcoevolution (the next phase) does not exist. Macroevolution leaps from microevolution, the problem being is that the Laws of Biogenesis prohibit any such leap. The sugar beet grown in S.Dakota will never have a sugar content of 14%, becuase it has exhausted all the genetic material available to give it the sugar content it has now. You are limited to the genetic material present within all organisms toward growth. Once that is depleted, you have peaked.

Err...it says all the plants were created before the Sun and stars. All the animals came later. That really sounds nothing like evolution. It sounds like something a goat herder from the Bronze Age might think.

Look... If you are gonna quote scripture...Do it right, You are making false statements ...Here is ---The History of Creation
(Gen. 2:4-9; Job 38:4-11; John 1:1-5)
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness [fn1] was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.
6 Then God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters." 7 Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 Then God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 13 So the evening and the morning were the third day.
14 Then God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; 15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so. 16 Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. 17 God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
20 Then God said, "Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens." 21 So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth." 23 So the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so. 25 And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over [fn2] all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."
29 And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food. 30 Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food"; and it was so. 31 Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

For scientif ic data i go to observable nature("the Universal Bible") and not to the Bible,where I go for spiritual instruction and direction.

"The Bibles tells us how to go to Heaven and not how the heavens go."

I find no conflict between believing the Bible as a Christian and being convinced by scientific data that evolution(punctuated equilibrium) is true.

that is right, most Christan's can't deny that micro evolution happens, but we can deny macro evolution. humans have always been humans. yes Adam was made in Gods image, yes Adam was a human ,but i don't think that Adam was the same as we are today, i think Adam was very intelligent and probably very big as compared to us, shore we have technology but if you think about it we might even be better off without a lot of it.

GOD did not make man in HIS perfect image and then man evolved.

Doesn't this argument also show the evolutionists based their theory on the Bible?

OHhhhhhhhhhhh I get it now.

Gosh, it's SO clear.

God didn't say He DIDN'T use evolution, so He must have done it that way....
