Well, there is an atheist here who does not believe in evolution. Myself. I can only possibly believe in things that have no evidence. Like “I believe there is life on other planets”. But in case of evolution, I do not believe that evolution is true. I know it. sieglinde 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be used to describe a number of different concepts. I am a young-earth, Biblical creationists. I have no issue with Natural Selection, speciation, mutations, adaptations, changes occurring in allele frequencies of populations - or many other concepts which tend to find themselves under the "evolution" banner. None of these concepts conflict logically with the young earth creation position. However, I do contest Common Ancestry (which also finds itself under the "evolution" banner). Common Ancestry directly contradicts that God created different kinds of creatures separately, and at different times. I further contest the time frames required to make Common Ancestry plausible. So it's difficult for me to answer your question. My answer depends on how you are defining "evolution". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
