Check out chaos theory

Does sound difficult to arrange.

The Creeds are very nice, they're a handy notecard

You're still not getting this. The four principal Creeds of The Church are dogmatic statements of the Faith, itself. Much more has been written, and lived, based on that confession of Faith.

you're expected to read the Bible

And proudly and ignorantly interpret it wrongly, such that you might even believe the Creeds to be in error? You need a reliable translation, based on the original uncorrupted documents, fairly and faithfully translated at that. The Rheims, a primary source for your KJV, is the perfect example.

How A turned to B

Whatever you mean by that, you yourself claim to confess evolution. There is at least a theory, because you guys always talk about - the theory of evolution, not "a" theory, by the way (the theory). How's it stated? State it for me.

That's how science goes, as we dig deeper and deeper into the underpinnings of the universe and trying to figure out how it works we get more and more complex stuff that can never be not complex.

I'm getting it fine. I just don't mistake the picture for the actual dish. There's a lot of stuff under the Creeds that should be learned to understand and apply the Creeds.

I never said the Creeds were in error. I said they weren't the whole picture, and they're not, and until we have a revolution in the way humans communicate with each other they can't be. For what they are, with the limitations put on them by our clumsy methods, the Creeds are excellent. They do a very good job of attempting to accomplish the impossible and those that formulated them should be proud of their work; but the task put forward was impossible and remains unacheived and unacheivable for the forseeable future, and that's something that shouldn't be forgotten.

You've already had it stated to you multiple times. Why do you just keep asking the same question over and over? Just read the damn answers that have been provided and stop insisting those aren't answers. You have been answered, if you disagree with the answer then present your disagreement and allow the conversation to move on, the circular discussion does nothing but make it monotonous.
