Actually, there's plenty of evidence in the fossil record that contradicts your belief. There's also countless evidence from many areas of science that do that as well. But the fact is, like a devout follower of Islam, you are blind to certain facts and will likely remain so forever.

You want to believe the literal aspect of Genesis at all costs, and that's cool if that's what you want, but don't pretend to have a lock on the truth because you don't. There are many ministers, priests, and hundreds of millions of Christians that don't agree with your itrepretation of Genesis.

Just a hint though.... day meant period of time in Hebrew. The bible DOES NOT indicate a literal time span. You need to get a better bible translation.

But I do like your bumber sticker designs on your profile. :)

Thanks for the compliments on the designs :)

However, you're incorrect. The word used "yom" only means a literal 24 hour period -- and as I said, no one questions it EXCEPT in the first part of Genesis.

And, in fact, there is no evidence that contradicts.

There is evidence, period. It really neither supports or contradicts creation or evolution, it just is.

THERE ARE THEORIES about the evidence that contradict creation, but the evidence itself does not.

I am not blind to anything, either. I used to be a believer in evolution and the big bang -- then I matured and realized I was wrong.
