God can do anything he wants.
...
Would that include creation via evolution?
Anything, but He says in His Book that I did not come from monkeys.
I do think so. Sure looks like it from what I perceive.
Just because a few dozen given ages add up to around 10,000 years, and the word “day” was used to describe a time when the daylight/nighttime cycle didn’t exist, was perceived only by an entity which views 1000 years as a day, and was described in a few words to a nearly prehistoric goat-herder who didn’t grok quantum cosmology, doesn’t mean God did things in a way that puny ignoramuses conclude covers a hundred back-to-back lifespans.
Why not, unless He explicitly tells us otherwise, like in Genesis 1 and Exodus 20:11. How about creation in 6 days by his Word?
God created evolution to give foolish humans something to argue about.
