Whether you believe in a God or evolution, its all the same with no concrete evidence for either. At least there was people who claimed to witness Jesus and his acts among other acts of God. Nobody witnessed evolution of man as its claimed to have happened.
"Theory of evolution " see the key word? Theory, thought of, faith in. Only difference is that most humans believe they are the all powerful and can't handle the fact someone or something gave them anything.

Scientists have sequenced the genome of the chimpanzee and found that humans are 96 percent similar to the great ape species.
"Darwin wasn't just provocative in saying that we descend from the apes—he didn't go far enough," said Frans de Waal, a primate scientist at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. "We are apes in every way, from our long arms and tailless bodies to our habits and temperament."
Human and chimp DNA is so similar because the two species are so closely related. Humans, chimps and bonobos descended from a single ancestor species that lived six or seven million years ago. As humans and chimps gradually evolved from a common ancestor, their DNA, passed from generation to generation, changed too. In fact, many of these DNA changes led to differences between human and chimp appearance and behavior.

What further proof do you need that they'll go to great lengths to hide the truth?
Don't worry though, the truth is coming.
The Vatican has withheld the truth from the people for hundreds of years because they're evil disguised as good.

You will decide if you believe when something is taking place in your life that you have no control over.... ex. really sick or hurt loved one....

Cursing the entity for making you sick or praying for it to make you better...?

Either one works.... I bet a lot of people at that point begin believing one way or the other....

Someone I met told me am amazing life story once......
He was in the Vietnam war....He got captured and was routinely tortured....They would put pins on the bottom of his feet so he could not run away.... Kept him in a cage in knee deep water (rice patties fields if I remember correctly) .... One day when he could not stand it anymore, he put his head down and for the first time in his life he prayed. He never believed in God but he was at the end of his life (could not take it anymore) and said something like " if you do exist why are doing this to me".... As he looked up to the sky that night, the top of the cage was unlocked and open..... In his mind, it was a miracle "God was listening".... He crawled out, and crawled across a river where he was eventually found by some American troops.....
He did a lot of stupid things when he got back, lived an isolated life for the longest time as the war experience took a toll on him.... After several years he returned home to his parents home and took up cooking...He enjoyed cooking, got a job as a cook, then a few years later started to teach cooking classes (lessons)..... Then one day out of the blue........I guess he was reflecting on life........ He remembered how he got there.
He still teaches but now he teaches the word of the Lord.....He told me that story over 20 yrs ago and it still gets to me.....

There are 5,000 gods in this world. But don’t worry, only mine is right.
True story.
Growing up, my grandmother forbade 13 people at a table ( last dinner). Because, twice in her life, she had been at dinner parties where 13 were at the table, and within days, one had died.
So all my life, with 6 Aunts and Uncles, cousins. We often had 13. Two tables would be set. One for adults, one for children.
The week of my 17th birthday, I woke up on Sunday morning. Hell bent on going to Bridgenorth, spend the day at the cottage, fishing. Parents wouldn’t drive me, so I stuck my thumb out.
dinner time. We realized I made 13. First and only time, everyone convinced her to have 13 at a table and she relented.
She died that night. They say it comes in threes. I’d love to see science explain that, or my crazy won’t take no “urge” to go there that day.

I'm sure the parents whose child is born with Tay–Sachs disease wonders why their 'God' would do such a thing....
If there was a Divine being, it would have to be held responsible for all that is wrong in the world before anyone thank him for all the good.
A great argument ..
