A turn on the arguement...

Now I have read quiet a few comments regarding evolution from theists on here and some of the posts which have offered no genuine evidence are quite startling in many respects...

But let us sacrifice a pawn so to speak, let's consider that evolution is not fact but just a 'theory'(in the lay terminolog) and ignore the heavy weight of evidence, such as:

Anatomy - pecies may share similar physical features because the feature was present in a common ancestor (homologous structures).

Molecular biology - DNA and the genetic code reflect the shared ancestry of life. DNA comparisons can show how related species are.

Biogeography - The global distribution of organisms and the unique features of island species reflect evolution and geological change.

Fossils - Fossils document the existence of now-extinct past species that are related to present-day species.

Direct observation - We can directly observe small-scale evolution in organisms with short lifecycles (e.g., pesticide-resistant insects).

Let us pass over the arguement to the other side to the theist, can you offer any actual evidence to support your claim that a 'god' created everything that does not rely on logical arguments and arguing from authority in referring to scripture?

For example, is there anything that has spontaneously happened into existence that has no known naturalistic plausible expliantion?
