While I agree with your defense of our values I hope that you would at least familiarize yourself with the material so that you can make solid arguments in support of your position. It will save you from making statements that would otherwise invalidate your very real concerns.
All the best.
Values aside, Adaptation is not Evolution. Apples and Oranges so to speak. I do know that Darwin wrote of how animals changed based on environmental pressures.
Case in point was a population of Finches whose beaks changed based on weather causing changes in seed characteristics.
Yet in the final analysis, the Finches were still Finches, not new animal forms.
Evolutionists have, at the core of their argument, the desire to refute Genesis by linking the ‘evolution’ of humans from apes. Were that to be true, the rest of the Bible just becomes a book of morality.
I stand by the requirement to PROVE evolution beyond a Theory. Until then, that is all it is. At least I can see the Theory of Gravity by dropping an apple. I’ve not seen nary a sliver of proof of animals changing beyond the minor adaptation. Surely there would be proof of some transitional form during the diversification that is theorized.
