But there hasn't been enough time for macroevolution to take place, even according to the most generous speculations about the age of the universe.
Now you'll probably pull out the argument "well, the fact is that macro-evolution did happen, so that's a proof that there was enough time," or some other tautological argument.
Fascinating -- that "fact" has somehow escaped the notice of millions of biologists. Perhaps you'd care to provide supporting evidence for your claim. If you can actually do so, you'd be a shoe-in for a Nobel prize. Go for it.

Actually no not at all. If God is the omnipotent being most believe he is, then he could have created the world any way he darn well felt like doing it. It just so happens that it was put together in such a way that all or at least the vast majority of the evidence points to an evolutionary theory of life.
Does that mean God didn't do it? No. Maybe he just has a sense of humor. Maybe he did it as a test of faith. Maybe he does not exist. Maybe he does exist and Satan planted all the bones. Those questions are the realm of religion. Science is just about coming up with the best explanation for the evidence at hand without calling on superpowers or "ether".
I'm sure that you have the proof of that since you are so bold as to state it. Could you please share with the rest of us the proof of that assertion.
I thank you in advance for your cooperation. I'm sure it will be enlightening.
Show your evidence for this.
