Neither can the mere injection of God into the question, for it is contrary of the nature of God as he has made himself known. God is not a passive, lassez-faire creator; he has declared his love for all of us,and never given any indication of a willingness to discard billions of generations of evolving, almost, but not good enough beings until Adam arrived on the scene, nor is Adam himself good enough; he sinned.
I don't put a lot of stock into a theory of divinely guided evolution, because I'm not at all wedded to the idea of general evolution, but it's at least a possibility. God could have created things over a long period of time rather than all at once. Genesis describes the creation as taking place in 6 days, but the meaning of "day" is not set in concrete when you consider that the sun and the moon weren't around to mark the passage of time in days and weeks for the first few of these days. Evidently the plants were created earlier than the fish and birds, they were created earlier than the beasts, and everything else was created earlier than man.
By a few days, or perhaps by a much longer passage of time.
There's nothing in the account to suggest one thing changing into another, so whether animals could have developed from plants with the help of divine guidance is still really nothing but conjecture, and still unproved by scientific evidence as far as I know. But with God all things are possible, so I don't think it can be entirely ruled out.
God could have developed earlier monkey like creatures toward the human, and then at some point made them human by inserting souls into a specific pair, Adam and Eve. Frankly, I doubt it. What similarities there are between animal and human DNA can be explained not only by inheritance, but also by God's choice in creating them by using partly similar building blocks. But in any case, general evolution certainly couldn't have happened without divine involvement in the process, for purely scientific and logical reasons.
