EUGENIE C. SCOTT: The fundamental problem with intelligent design is that you can't use it to explain the natural world. It's essentially a negative argument. It says, "Evolution doesn't work, therefore the designer did it. Evolution doesn't work, therefore we win by default."
But when you ask...

""In the beginning God created....." This is what I believe"
That is fine as a belief. But when it contradicts all the actual facts its a problem.

For one, you keep saying this like if I have a problem, when in fact its evidence from a lot of...
So JayJayDee, I noticed you skipped over the flood story inconsistencies, but oh well but more importantly, I will ask you where did our moon come from and what evidence is there for it? It didn't just pop into existence for a fact. Or our solar system.
You do know intelligent design is a new word created by creationists from the discovery institute, which they got caught lying about it. They could use creationism, so they used a new term and are all Christians.
You should read this transcript. The ID movement lied under oath and were caught...
I am posting a wall of text here, but there are billions of facts that support evolution, which is both a fact and a working theory on the details.

Although the Cretaceous-Tertiary (or K-T) extinction event is the most well-known because it wiped out the...
Is Evolution a Theory or a Fact?
It is both. But that answer requires looking more deeply at the meanings of the words "theory" and "fact."
In everyday usage, "theory" often refers to a hunch or a speculation. When people say, "I have a theory about why that happened," they are often drawing a...

"cyanobacteria fossils that date back 3.5 billion years."
Which can still be found today and they don't get this but its the reason they can even breathe. It evolved photosynthesis and gave the Earth its oxygen atmosphere.

For example, a joint statement of IAP by 68 national and international science academies lists as established scientific fact that Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old and has undergone continual change; that life, according to the evidence of earliest fossils, appeared on Earth at least...

"On investigating the various reproductive systems in the natural world, I see amazing variety in the way creatures reproduce replicas of themselves. When we look at herding land animals for example, do we see some that appear to be evolving into something different from the other members of...

Good question? In science there was something called recombination.

When Was the Recombination Era?
The recombination era took place when the universe was approximately 300,000 to 400,000 years old. In other words, for the first 300,000...

How Did the Solar System Form?
The formation of the solar system offers astronomers a rare model of an early hypothesis being dead right.

New 'Pillars Of Creation'...
The accounts are scientifically inaccurate for a fact.
Our moon was also formed by a giant impact between the Earth and a planet the size of Mars. The Earth almost did not survive the collision.
The Sun formed before the planets for a fact, because its material left over from the formation...
cloud cover?
You have in it "And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night."
But no one could tell that because of cloud cover. I don't think so.
It makes a whole lot more sense that people 2000 years ago didn't know how our solar system formed.

(1:1) In the beginning
The first of two contradictory creation accounts. Compare with Genesis 2:4-25 in which the order of events is entirely different.
The Genesis 1 account conflicts with the order of events that are known to science.
