Genesis just doesn't have enough information to make it clear exactly HOW God created the universe, life and the species. Evolution still stands.

Evolution gives a better idea? You still have to explain how something comes from nothing. How morality, personality, physical and chemical and biological order, mind, and intellect arises from ... their exact opposites (as seen in the natural state of chaos).

Talk about blind faith. But of course, you can't see that.

Can you show me a biology/science/evolution book that states anything similar to that?

"You still have to explain how something comes from nothing."

Come on, you know better than that.

The theory of natural selection has nothing to do with the moment of creation, and that point is a straw-man lie created by people who wish to set up an easy-to-discredit argument.

The entirety of the theory of natural selection is this: those with traits that are best suited to the environment they are in, live and have babies that pass on, and potentially reinforce, that trait.

As environments and situations change, the traits that matter can change.

This process, taken over many, many, years often results in branches of family trees of animals.

It has nothing to do with how it all started.

Me, personally, I believe the God of Abraham said, "Let there be Light." And then there was a Big Bang.

God created evolution.

It's merely His toolbox.

The Bible says what. Science attempts to explain HOW. Evolution is the answer.
