The difficulty with this position is that, at bottom, evolution relies upon a conviction that random (meaning undirected) mutations arose from a single life form to ascend to every living thing now in existence, whether plant or animal. At least biblical Christianity would contend that the text denies such unattended or unintended events. There is, according to the Scriptures, no such thing.

Who are you do mock Gods intentions.

If he intended Humans to have risen by random mutations from a lesser life form, thats his business.

You put way too much in a book written by men...and men who have edited out some of what use to be in the bible. (the gospel of Judas for instance...).

Indeed. The Bible says...

“The dice are cast into the lap. But every result is from the Lord.”

Random processes exclude God only if you think God’s power stops at the casino door, that God has no power over random processes. This is obviously a non-Biblical viewpoint, yet it is the favorite bugaboo of most Creationists. ‘You say it is random? That means you are excluding God!’. Only if you assume random is synonymous with “out of God’s control”.
