Dominic,I can tell that you have a good heart for God. But there is no need to prove the existence of God (and in fact, it cannot be done.) God is manifest in all the universe and reveals Himself to those that He chooses and in the manner that He chooses and in the time that He chooses. When this happens, we have a choice to accept Him or reject Him in our lives.The manner in which God created the earth and all of life is mysterious. Genesis tells us that there was an order and progression to this creation process. Science is one of mankinds means of finding out the details of this process. It does not contradict Genesis, but rather helps us to understand it better.Bub

This is a kind of PSMany Evolutionists seem to find it impossible to get their heads around the fact that the variability of living things is not Evolution, nor is it evidence for Evolution. If anything it's evidence that Evolution is impossible.Speciation, mutation, adaptive radiation, and other mechanisms that are hailed as proof of Evolution are nothing of the kind, [b]because they all arise from already existing genetic material[/b]. There is no increase in complexity, which Evolution absolutely requires. Neither is there evidence that any real increase in complexity is even possible - not in the sense of completely new living systems arising spontaneously.in HimJeannette
Thought this might be of interest, since it deals with some of the issues being discussed here--two Way of the Master Radio segments where Todd Friel interviews Paul Taylor from Answers in Genesis in Scotland. If you guys have the time I would recommend listening to these, they're very interesting and informative, not to mention edifying.
