Evo's are scared of the competition of ideas which is why they fear anyone taking away their monopoly on ideas taught to children and anyone expose their lack of evidence. But they can't fool people forever. Eventually evos and global warming zealots will be overrun through the healthy competition of ideas.

Please provide a scientific alternate theory to TToE that explains the evidence.

It's also a waste of time for rational people to put too much effort into a 'conversation' with irrational people. It's only for the spectators and I think they've seen all they need to see in this case.

*sigh* Listen closely. Those of us independent enough in thought and education to see through the pure crap of scare tactics behind human-caused global warming, are likely to be, as you so quaintly call them, "Evo's" (what the apostrophe is doing there, I have no idea ...) because we had learned the basics that science has uncovered so far and understand the time scale.

You really need to read some plain, unpoliticized science textbooks in paleontology, earth geology, etc. As a Christian, none of what I've learned about our "natural" world with regard to evolution OR geological history has even come close to shaking my faith in God, only the stupidity of cleaving to a literal interpretation of Genesis out of pride. Indeed, science has confirmed the wonder of His miraculous ways!!! None of it negates God, Jesus's teachings, the Seven Deadly Sins, the Ten Commandments -- there is no conflict. Human pride and vanity are what reject BOTH evolution and scare-tactic global warming scenarios. Pride and vanity and NOTHING ELSE.

I am well-read enough to have a basic grasp of the Theory of Evolution and an understanding of the fossil evidence behind it. I am ALSO well read-enough to figure that global warming is ludicrous BECAUSE I have a basic grasp of science's view of how incredibly old and tough this earth is, and that our time so far on it has been less than a smidgen of a smidgen of a blink of an eye -- I am also a Christian who believes in God and is in awe of the wonder that was/is Jesus Christ.

What I'm trying to say is that the same irrational thinking that endorses the idea that we are on the way to "destroying the planet" is of the same ilk that DENIES evolutionary science. The two factions just happen to have differing political/prideful motivations. If you're going to believe in Global Warming, then you must ALSO tend to believe in Creationism; if you understand truly WHY the scare mongering/guilt trip within global warming claims is such crap, then you also understand why those who deny the validity of evolutionary theory on the basis of religion are following a false path. "Global warming zealots" are the same mindset as anti-Evolution zealots when it comes right down to it -- they just can't handle the science or injury it inflicts on their pride and vanity.
