How would you falsify that theory?

Show a direct contradiction to nested hierarchy. In other words find a chimera, a mammal with feathers or a bird with milk glands, . Any number of creatures referenced in Revelations would be chimeras. Find one : )

Or show that common ancestry isn't. Show that DNA between Man and Ape has the same difference as DNA between Man and Lizards. Evolution, if false, should be easy to falsify.

I have a better idea. Why don't you Creationists just rewrite the first part of Genesis? It wouldn't have to even be much of a rewrite, just change the order a little, it is just silly to have God make plants before he makes the Sun. Put the creation of the Sun and planet first, followed by water, plants and then animals. Simple : ) The problem with your theory of Creation is that it is trivially simple to falsify.

It is easy to falsify, it's made up garbage to give an alternative to God. There is no such thing as Human Evolution. Since the dawn of modern man we have never seen nor observed not even one human evolution of any kind whatsoever. Scientists have found no fossils, observed no phenomenon, found no evidence, nothing. Falsify, yes, it is too easy.

I refuse to rewrite the Bible, I'm not that prideful and dimwitted. God's light is greater than the Sun, if he made plants first it makes perfect sense. He was giving them the light they need. It appears that you think you are better at creating life and everything in it better than God. You did not falsify Creationism in the slightest. The lines in your post do nothing but prove your arrogance, not falsify Creationism.

Hmmm. Say. Maybe God created the sun only a few days after he did the plants? Plants can go a few days just fine without light. And besides, not only, like ECO says, could God's own light have been ample - and even more then that, don't you suppose that if God could create the sun and the moon and all of the plants that he could figure out away to keep them alive for a few days?

A major problem in your thinking when you try to use science to disprove the Bible is that you forget the very first 4 words: "In the beginning GOD..."!

If you accept the first four words, then you've got no problem with the rest. If you do not accept the first four words, then of course none of it is going make sense to you.
