Ah, but some of it is *informed* speculation. Some of it is testable.

The Bible has been scientifically tested for accuracy for the last 2000 years, and it has passed every test. Using the Bible, my own experiences with God, and the "evidence" we have gathered (rock layers, fossils, etc.), I feel like my speculation is VERY informed. You left out the part about how evolution as an explanation of our existence is nothing but religion (a TAX-SUPPORTED religion).

The "evidence" we see can be interpreted several different ways. Rock layers can be seen on earth. Evolution would have it that it settled over millions of years, while creation would say that it formed due to rapid sedimentation during the flood. "Scientists" have set out to test this, and different results have come in. Those who set out to prove that it happened rapidly have found evidence that supports their claim, while those who have set out to show that it happened over millions of years have found evidence to support THEIR claims. So who's evidence is better?

Can God make a rock so big even he can't pick it up? Never have heard a good reply to that one.

That's because it's not a real question (have you stopped beating your wife yet?). It's a loaded paradoxical question dreamed up by God-haters to distract from the real issue. If you really want an answer, ask God Himself, He would know. Maybe read the Bible a little before you start dissing it. You seem to have an opinion on something you know nothing about. Intelligent, eh?
