Yes, if you are referring to the fairy tale that “billions of years ago, in a swamp far away, on a world made from not even pixie dust, in a universe that spontaneously sprang from nothing into untold billions of tons of matter for no reason, that a spark of static electricity formed a protein that rather than decayed continued to become more and more complex until hundreds of thousands of life forms differentiated due to positive responses to changing condition

But I don't believe that. I believe God created the Heavens and the Earth...and that "evolution" is part of his brilliant design. Why are those two beliefs mutually exclusive?

That closes debate.

Rescind that statement and I will engage.

Because unlike evolution, the Bible does not begin with 'Once upon a time, long ago, and far away...'

Because the thought that evolution occurred after God created requires death- which then requires a fallen world before the creation of man and therefore death predates God’s requirement that the woman’s seed will crush the serpents head- ie defeat Satan for the souls of (willing)men. If death and decay predates the killing of an animal by God to provide a covering (salvation, redemption from guilt)for man, then there is hope.

Also, if man is simply a higher form of swamp pus, then what is man’s life really worth? God says He created man in His image and likeness, not that of an amoeba.

Regards
