Noah's ark evolved from noah's boat, which evolved from noah's canoe which evolved from some driftwood.
How can anyone not believe in evolution?

No. As I wrote in my first sentence, "first time in a long time", but in a way it felt like the first time probably because it was the first time since I've stopped believing in the Bible version of events, which hardly gives a mention to these amazing creatures.

Dang it. You got me. It all depends on what you mean by "evolution." But to cut to the chase - aspects of some theories of it (or if you prefer aspects of the theory). Course I'm no scientist.

Double dang it! You got me too. Meant "yute." Oh, well.
Yute is Spanish for a long, soft, shiny vegetable fiber that can be spun into coarse, strong threads.

I'm sure most know that humans are no longer believed to have evolved from apes, but that they only have a common ancestor.
Here are a couple of so called facts I stumbled across tonight in an ESL textbook:
-the common ancestor of humans and apes walked upright, so apes lost this ability as they evolved to the trees.
-DNA wise, humans have more in common with chimps than horses do with zebras, or sheep with goats. Ouch.

From the classic, My Cousin Vinny:
Vinny Gambini: It is possible that the two yutes...
Judge Chamberlain Haller: ...Ah, the two what? Uh... uh, what was that word?
Vinny Gambini: Uh... what word?
Judge Chamberlain Haller: Two what?
Vinny Gambini: What?
Judge Chamberlain Haller: Uh... did you say 'yutes'?
Vinny Gambini: Yeah, two yutes.
Judge Chamberlain Haller: What is a yute?
Vinny Gambini: [beat] Oh, excuse me, your honor...
[exaggerated]
Vinny Gambini: Two YOUTHS.

Haven't watched South Park in a long time, but I scrolled back and saw your previous entry and although I missed that episode, it sure sounds like those guys. Cartman quote?

Why not? Someone can't believe in the whole "creationism" BS and also believe in evolution (which is tragic, because one is backed by so much evidence and fact and the other...zilch. And people won't believe in evolution and fight it for the sole fact that they've been brainwashed and HAVE to believe creationism). But I think you can believe in god and take the bible as a guide book and not as factual stories (as it should be looked at) while also acknowledging that yes, evolution happened.

The vast, vast majority of Christians do not regard the Bible as a work of literal history, at least in terms of the old testament creation myth. Likewise, the theory of evolution proper does not make any claims about the origin of creation. There does not need to be a conflict.
