When one considers a wise and omnipotent creator, one has to wonder why the creator took time to create, from nothing, 400,000 species of beetles; 1300 species of bats and 10,000 species of birds?

The same creator, who out of nothing, created a man then a woman and placed them in a beautiful garden and promised them eternal life, but were tempted by a ‘talking snake’ and subsequently, original sin was passed down to this day.

Regarding an ‘ex nihilo ‘creation, I submit that what can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

Obviously then, regarding evolution by chance from nothing, we can send it to the trash bin of fantastical myths since no one has ever seen, heard, touched, or in any way sensed this unseen magical energy. Nor has anyone ever seen evidence of it having 'changed' dinosaurs into birds or fish into apes into man.

What is historically known about evolution is that from ancient times it has been known as a mystical energy, often spoken of as serpent power, connected to reincarnation

If Creation ITSELF isn’t evidence enough for you there is no evidence that would be enough. Critiquing Gods Creation in the number of beetles and birds is rather outside any man’s pay grade. Doesn’t the world function quite well with the number of beetles and birds it has?
