You've been misled about that, too.   The Ediacaran formation is Precambrian, and shows multitudes of complex organisms including animals.  Would you like to learn about that?

 

 

No.  I don't want to learn about a delusion that God has sent to those who will not believe God's Word as written.  Evolution is a total lie, and I would rather hold to the truth that is in God's Word as written.

Ah, there are some people who still think dinosaurs still live.    Except in the trivial sense of birds, that's wrong.   But for some reason, creationists are especially prone to that kind of hoax.

You're not deluded; you're just mistaken.    Your new version of Genesis has nothing to do with whether or not you will be saved.   That's not how God judges you.

It's observed every day.    Perhaps you don't know what evolution is.  What do you think it is?

I believe you would.   You are merely mistaken in your new interpretation of it.

This is God's word for you to take careful notice, because this is God's judgment against all those who rebel against God, and this includes those who teach atheistic evolution:

Fortunately, you aren't God, and you don't speak for Him.   So calling down His judgement on those who disagree with you, is merely disrespectful of Him, not a threat.     And of course, there cannot be "atheistic evolution", any more than there can be "atheistic thunderstorms."    Evolution is merely an observed natural phenomenon.    There is evolutionary theory, but of course, scientific theories, being limited to the natural world, can't say anything at all about God, who transcends nature. 

I know that you will not accept this, because you are caught up in the powerful YE creationist delusion that Genesis is a literal history.     It would be a harmless delusion, except for all the atheists who became atheists when they assumed YE creationism was Christian belief.

ICR school graduate and geologist Glenn Morton showing real damage YE creationism does to Christian belief:

But eventually, by 1994 I was through with young-earth creationISM. Nothing that young-earth creationists had taught me about geology turned out to be true. I took a poll of my ICR graduate friends who have worked in the oil industry.  I asked them one question.

 "From your oil industry experience, did any fact that you were taught at ICR, which challenged current geological thinking, turn out in the long run to be true? ,"

That is a very simple question.  One man, Steve Robertson, who worked for Shell grew real silent on the phone, sighed and softly said 'No!'  A very close friend that I had hired at Arco, after hearing the question, exclaimed, "Wait a minute.  There has to be one!"  But he could not name one.  I can not name one.  No one else could either.  One man I could not reach, to ask that question, had a crisis of faith about two years after coming into the oil industry.  I do not know what his spiritual state is now but he was in bad shape the last time I talked to him.

And being through with creationism, I very nearly became through with Christianity.  I was on the very verge of becoming an atheist.

I do believe in evolution as well as the Bible's account of creation.  Try sitting in the seats the people used 600 years ago or walking through their doorways of old buildings without ducking your heads.  Due to our food supply in some parts of the world people have changed in size and even in skin color.  My husband had a permanent tan on his left arm from leaning his elbow out our car window.  Our children are about 3 inches taller than we were as well. Women used to have an average height of 5' 4" and we were in awe when we found out a man was 6'.  Now we can easily add 3" to heights from 60 years ago.  

We have seen some species of birds disappear or become rare in the last 30 years due to the impact of urban spread on environment.  People hate badgers and destroy them, which causes fewer holes for burrowing owls to nest in.  Loons are becoming more rare as are some Mergansers.  Predation by ferrel cats, introduced squirrels and corvids is taking its toll on song birds eggs.. People change the environment by introducing species  of plants or removing trees in some areas which in turn further changes our habitat for native plants and animals.  These are all a part of evolution whether by human intervention or not.

Nothing you mentioned actually observing is contrary to God's Word or God's Plan or God's Purpose.

 

Everything about evolution though is totally from the enemy,  not what you think,  and is opposed to God's Word and God's Plan and God's Purpose,  along with all the carnal world - society - sons of disobedience.

 

i.e. whatever you were told "evolution" is ,   it is not God's Way.  

Whatever you have observed,  is NOT supporting of what 'evolution' says.

As you've see frequently,  you won't find support for sticking with God's Word on the internet.  There's no part of society that chooses to turn to God for His Salvation,  His Healing,  nor His Way.    Only a few individuals ever do.

When I see miracles and healings today I am more inclined to believe the accounts of these things in Jesus' day.

Seeing fossils of 3 toes horses foot high convinces me that they once existed as well.

Evolution is not what you apparently think it is either.  It is slow changes in different species over time.  There are different schools in evolution as well.

ev·o·lu·tion| ˌevəˈlo͞oSH(ə)n | noun  1 the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth.

2 the gradual development of something, especially from a simple to a more complex form: the forms of written languages undergo constant evolution.

As I said, I do believe the Bible's account literally.  The way some sciences are taught is what has become evil.  My biology teacher in high school announced that He had to teach this stuff but you don't have to believe it.  The fact that some things have been taught as theory that have never been proven is one of the fallacies in our educational system.  We used to be encouraged to think independently and to question things.   I have always been a sceptic.  So I have appreciated Thomas's testimony.  He would not believe Jesus arose from the dead till he had touched the holes in His side and hands.  He fell on his face confessing "my Lord and my God."
