[or Man is right and life on earth evolved over time and God had nothing to do with it.]

But I believe in evolution as designed by God, and I believe in good and evil. I don’t see the either or pronouncement as meaningful. God created things however he pleased, and then gave us minds to figure things out.

By the way, how do you explain the speed of light and the 13 billion year age of the universe?

That's because you are ignoring the "wages of sin is death" paradox. If evolution is true then eons of death occurred before the fall. So if the Fall did not cause death to enter creation, then Christ lied and He died for nothing because death cannot be defeated because under your belief system God designed death as a part of evolution. You're also ignoring God's own account of how He made Creation. So to say that you believe in God, but not what He says He did, well, that's not belieft, that's lip service. It lets you control who God on your terms instead of believing in Him on His terms.

I merely assume that once again man thinks he knows something that just isn't so and eventually it will get sorted out (but probably not by scientists who are invested in a theory because it lets them explain God away).
