You guys are misunderstanding what I am saying. I am not saying that evolution is false and creationism is the only true holy way, but saying evolution is complete fact is stretching things.

The concept that biological entities can adapt and mutate through natural selection - the strong winning out over the weak - is amply proven and a fact.
I never presumed you were arguing in favour of religion. I was simply answering your point with the above statement of fact.

Agreed.
However the extent to which evolution exists and to when/how it started is definitely not fact. When you go back as far as the Big Bang, evoluton and cosmology have barely more credence than God creating the universe in 6 days. [/b][/quote]
If you go back to one of my posts above, I believe I referenced the Big Bang and said that God was as good an explanation as any.
In other words, I would agree its possible that God unleashed the forces of natural selection. I won't agree that the forces of natural selection are a theory, however.
