Many 'facts' of evolution can be explained scientifically by other means which includes a catastrophic, universal flood.

Okay. Explain similarities within the DNA record. Explain why, thus far, if a genetic trait is found in whales and cows, it is also found in hippos.

Scientists now acknowledge that the Colorado River did NOT form the Grand Canyon

Citation?

I am not saying that I KNOW what happened,

Really? You seem to have a lot of certainty as to what didn't happen, in spite of physical evidence for it.

I am saying that it is valid, and logical to believe that a Universal flood could have caused many of the things explained now by evolution

Be specific, don't just throw out "A flood did it all", explain what a flood did. Explain how, exactly, a flood would leave evidence similar to changes in alelle frequency over time, as well, because your claim that a flood -- or any gelogical event -- can cause results similar to those explained via evolution indicates that your knowledge of evolution might be lacking.

Also, how do you explain the lack of evidence for a global flood? The way many places in the world do not look as though they were ever submereged in water? The fact that many cultures have history that runs concurrent with the alleged time of the flood, whose recorded history seems to omit the fact that they were all wiped out by a massive deluge?

It's fascinating to go to Mt. St. Helens and see the canyon carved in a matter of hours there. It doesn't take millenia to form the geological strata in canyons. It just takes lots of water.

Thing is, a canyon carved in a matter of hours by lava will have specific physical traits. We don't see these traits in the Grand Canyon. That's why we don't assume that it was done in a matter of hours by a volcano.

The one thing I do know, is that we were created by a Creator, who loved us before we were even born, who formed us in our mother's wombs,

Your evidence for this?

and has every hair on our heads numbered.

The hair on my head changes in number every day. Unfortunately, it seems to be dwindling :\.

And I know that he loved us enough to send His Son, Jesus, to live among us, and to suffer and die for our sins, and to rise on the third day, and sit at the right hand of His Father in heaven.

Evidence?

I stand by my claim. You are either ignorant of the theory of evolution or you're dishonest. I'm much more likely to believe ignorance, however, given that you're not even trying to explain problems in the theory yet you seem genuinely convinced of the truth of your position. However, your personal conviction is not evidence against the theory, and your claims linking evolution with atheism further belie your lack of knowledge on the subject.
