I have no problem with evolution, we do not know the methodology God used to create the world.

Holding off on asserting it as true or false, the thing about evolution is that applying it to humans refutes the special creation of humankind.
IOW, even if God did use evolution for plants/animals, once you apply evolution to make the jump from non-human to human you assert that mankind is not made in God's image — and that leads to bad things.

Even the Darwinists claim that Homo Sapiens "suddenly appeared" 200,000 years ago. There is not much difference between suddenly appearing and being created.

No, it really doesn’t. First of all evolution is a moving target that locked in on modern man, second of all (from my personal point of view) I wonder how much of that Image has to do with the passage of time making it possible to be a child, adult, and spirit. God is all of these at once but He let us take baby steps.
