"One of the many billions of things that creationists fail to understand about evolution is that it is simply a way of explaining how different species arose. It is not a religious (or anti-religious) statement. It is not an argument for or against God. It's just biology."
Yes, it is a way of explaining all species' origins, but it is a highly unlikely way of explaining their origin due to its random nature. I don't like science that involves guessing, hoping, and wishing which is what evolution of the species from one species is.
In Genesis the Bible clearly says that God created man in His own image and he put man over the animals. That makes Human Evolution and the Bible 100% incompatible. According to the Bible, man was created and separated as greater than animals, and did not not evolve from another species. If Human Evolution is false, then Evolution itself all falls like a house of cards with very little intact. If Genesis is false, then the Bible falls apart like a house of cards. It is a religious issue, like it or not.
Biology is not only about Evolution. Creation can be and is part of Biology. Creation and Evolution are the two current possible scenario's in Biology for the origin of species. Biology simply studies the origin of species and no one can rule out creation scientifically. To rule out creation as a possibility of the origin of species is unscientific and makes absolutely no sense. Creation in Biology is just as legitimate, if not more, than Evolution in Biology.

no one can rule out creation scientifically
Which is the very reason that creation is not science. In order to be considered as science it would have to be able to be falsified.
The belief in Biblical creation is a matter of faith.
The acceptance of the Theory of Evolution is based on empirical evidence
