I prefer to think that God created gravity, and that's what made the lake flat. Same with evolution.

There's a huge problem with your comparison. Creationists believe that man is in a fallen state, in need of a higher power to redeem us. Evolutionists believe that we indeed are evolving into higher, more intelligent life forms. Yes, God did create gravity as one of the organizing forces of nature. Surely you know that evolution is OPPOSED to several natural laws. Going from order to disorder is the nature of things. Evolution has it backwards. If you believe that God created laws of nature, like gravity, to govern the universe, then you have a big problem with the theory of evolution.

So it never snows, right? Obviously, a huge cloud of water vapor is far more disordered than millions of six-sided crystals, no two of which are identical.

Does not the choppy lake in the afternoon storms "organize" itself into a perfectly mirror flat surface in the mornings? It has gone from disorder to order using a simple rule called gravity. Same with evolution.

The other evidence you speak of has been quite thoroughly debunked. There are quite a few quacks in the Christian universe. Jim Jones, the guy who killed hundreds in Jonestown is a good example. As are some itinerant revival preachers. The quacks that make a living touting the "irreducible complexity" hogwash have a good line. And they take in lots of folks who don't really know the details of the science of evolution.

Just think of all those books, video's, and public speaking at churches that pass the plate. I'm sure it's quite a good living. They've probably convinced themselves they're right too, and have no conscience problem whatever.

No, that's not what the theory of evolution states.

Such as?

Oh, funny. I suppose that a zygote going to a fully grown human being also violates natural laws, or are you asserting that a small clump of a few undifferentiated cells is somehow more ordered than a fully functioning adult mammal?

Can you even state the "natural law" to which you think you are referring?
