There is not necessarily a conflict between Christianity and evolution as a matter of simple historical record. There is a conflict insofar as God has given us the Genesis account for a reason, and has not asked us to dwell on evolution. Therefore, regardless of whther evolution happened in history, God has asked us to reflect on the Genesis account, so that is what we should do.

God hasn't asked us to dwell on quantum mechanics or atomic theory either. Best throw that PC away, it is based on Godless scientific theories.

Yes, but the Genesis account states that Adam was made from the dust (or dirt) and Eve was created from his rib. It doesn't state that we were created from apes.....
