Creation versus Evolution. Why evolution is not sufficient to prove Bible wrong?

Bible is the holy book of Christians. It is nothing but the word of God.
Christianity should be considered for its historical viability.

We, Christians believe that God created the earth and the universe. Estimated age of earth is ~6000 years old. Some may argue that earth is billions of years old. We can term as old earth theory. But it is illogical to conclude something or question Bible without asking sufficient questions. Often people get carried away by some evidence and come to a conclusion. Evidence should be complemented by logical reasoning.

Everyone agree that Adam and Eve were the first humans created by God. When both Adam and Eve were created did they appear one day old. No. They were created as adults. Conclusions without logical reasoning and asking every possible questions are not sufficient to prove Bible wrong. Remember Bible is nothing but the word of God. Human ideas are also evolving and our science and research is improving day by day. It may not be perfect today but it may be more perfect tomorrow. Improvement is an ongoing process and perfection is never attained. Only God is perfect. Everything else is in transition. We need to ask do cosmology, geology and other sciences have evolved enough to prove Bible wrong? My belief in Jesus, our only savior helps me confidently say that Bible can never be wrong. It may be difficult for many to understand, but belief in God empowers logical reasoning.

About evolutions, can it prove Bible wrong? No. True that living beings may adapt to the environment. Let us agree that adaptations are genetically heritable and it is heritable across different environments. This is just an accumulation of data. That addresses What part of the phenomenon. But logical reasoning enables us to think about how and why ?
Why does genes behave in a particular way way ? Why does it adapt? Was it designed that way ? This is where creation/creator comes into picture. Without asking sufficient questions evolution or transitional forms is an incomplete understanding. Evolution by itself may not stand out, it may need a force to drive it.

The entire life on earth is driven by one force and I need not repeat it!

So many things incorrect in what you say... The first two lines were enough.,

SW-User

@ozgirl512 I don't quite agree with you on your remark about the first two lines.

Bible is the holy book of Christians. It is nothing but the word of God.

First line is definitely true. No one has Any doubt about it. Second line is subjective. It has more to do with faith.

@SW-User agree on the first line, no arguments there.
The second sentence is a problem through the the following reasons.
1. Not the word of God.... But hearsay... Is what he is reputed to have said.
2. Due to many things, these "words" were passed orally for a few hundred years before they were written down.
3. During this time they were translated between different languages.
4. Not all that was said was induced in the Bible... There are many books not included and they are called the apocra (I think).
5. Any court would say there's no case to answer ;)

@SW-User If you would look at history and what all the narratives, inventions have been proposed or postulated by members of different faith, you would find that 95% of the daily essentials which we use today are from the western hemisphere doninated by 1 religion.

I can hardly name 4 things which were invented by Chinese but not more than that.

Paper
Hot sauce
Culture
Martial Art

If these faiths are very much in sync with our faith, why do they always copy things from the west and why don't they have a thing of their own? Is it God's blessings to Israel and the believers?

Name the happiest countries of 2021 - three countries nordic are among the top. All Christian nations. Why? Even not the USA.

Name the countries with highest Human Development Index - Again these Christian nations

Think why? They are not innovative, they may not be as smart as USA as it hires every brain.

Then why?
I don't say that the people are low grade. I just say that they need to be told the truth not with hatred but with Love and compassion.

@Horsefrost Talk about compounding error on error lol...

@ozgirl512 Actually that is incorrect, The Bible was not passed orally, nor translated to different languages for a few hundred years. It was immediately written down by first hand witnesses from God by Moses, Isaiah, King David, Ruth, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Peter, etc and then copied by Scribes very carefully by hand verbatim in Hebrew and Greek and to Latin By Jerome in 345. Then that was copied into different languages by the Guttenburg Press for the first time 1455. The translations to different languages is ongoing by missionaries going into tribes in various countries which is almost complete at this time. Jesus said "when the Gospel has gone out to the whole world that's the end."

@Carazaa Clever old sticks, weren't they?

Odd though that the so-sanctimonius, so-"Christian" Church authorities in Europe relied on all that work, then made it a capital offence for centuries for anyone to take the obvious further step and translate the Latin Bible into local languages.

Even though most people in Mediaeval times were almost uneducated, perhaps God's guardians on Earth were frightened too many of them would judge it for themselves, rather than blindly absorbing the Church's official meanings.

@ArishMell Like I said the scribes guarded the Hebrew and Greek copies and only Priests could read back then so there was no need to copy by hand more than a few copies. But the printing press changed that.

@Carazaa when we’re you going to mention the pagan Roman emperor commanding the compilation of the so-called Christian Bible?
