Evolution's problems are myriad; logical, philosophical, physical, metaphysical, evidential, scientific and political.

Let's pretend your statement had merit. (It doesn't). Let's then insert "The Genesis storty" for "Evolution."
Logical? Um, magic deity (Christian only, please) zaps life into existence from nothing a short while ago. 4-5 billion humans today say, "nope."
Philosophical? 4-5 billion humans today say, "nope."
Physical? I don't really know what the "physical" parameter entails, but if its in regards to what we see on earth, after 2000 years, there are lots of people waiting to see some physical evidence of anything supernaturally christian. Heck, even christians say their beliefs are faith based.
Metaphysical? you win that one, as science stays away from all things metaphysical.
Evidential? Again, the Genesis account fails rather miserably. I mean c'mon, so far evidence of creationism is a resounding null set. All you creationists do is pick on evolutionary ideas (which you dont even understand) rather than put forth any evidence of your own.
Scientific? wow, that's odd. I'm pretty sure, despite LBB's silliness, 99.9% of the scietific community is pretty secure with the voluminous facts supporting evolution. The .1% is made up of guys who knowingly lie to make money on their books and videos from the uneducated flock.
Political? Not applicable, as evolution has no politics. Period.

This is another of those ridiculous posts that creationists blithely post, smile, cross their arms, and say, "hurumph." Sorry, buddy, but it doesn't fly here.

And the evidence for such a statement? I thought so. Regardless, if popularity were the indicator of truth, the sun would actually revolve around the earth.

Metaphysical? you win that one, as science stays away from all things metaphysical.

Science only claims it stays away. Perhaps you deny that the concept of eternal when applied to matter is not in the realm of the metaphysical. Perhaps quintillions of stars pressed into the size of an atom is hard science. And maybe even the mythical dark matter has been studied under a microscope. Naa. Science stays away from the metaphysical... when convenient.

Evidential? Again, the Genesis account fails rather miserably.

This seems to be a unit of information that most of you have not been able to absorb: Evolution is a Swiss cheese theory regardless of Genesis. Evolution ain't science regardless of Genesis. Evolution defies logic regardless of Genesis.

Are you so deceived and confused that you think anyone that says they believe God created humans is either is a greedy liar or stupid ?
