How exactly does evolution contradict the Fall? Man evolved, God revealed himself to him, and then man rejected God. What's the problem?

So God hangs around for a couple hundred million years and looks down and says, "What took you so long???"...

Then, you see, Jesus didn't have to die as a sacrifice...We are getting better...All God has to do is wait another hundred thousand years or so, and we will have overcome any imperfection...

Likely God got bored from the long wait and went on to other projects...

Some of you people educated yourselves right out of the Bible...If Genesis isn't true, then what is??? Is Matthhew true??? Or Romans, or Galations, or Exodus???

Amo 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:
Amo 8:12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.

Is this portion of the Bible false also???

No, He just works on a timescale that us mere mortals cannot begin to comprehend.

God is outside time.

I don't follow your argument. Jesus had to die because of our sins. Evolution isn't going to make sin go away.

It's all true. Your interpretation of some of it, though, is not.

Not all of scripture is meant to be taken literally.
