"CREATION VS. EVOLUTION (SCIENCE)" what does the BIBLE say about this?

Not true. In fact, modern evolutionary biologists completely reject the idea that "humans evolved from monkeys". Such a statement is a clear misunderstanding of how proper evolution works. The more accepted theory today is that monkeys, apes, and humans all trace back to a common ancestor. How it looks like, they don't know yet. But this theory has been developed thanks to genomics and analysis of thousands of gigabytes worth of genetic data.

"For a species to evolve, it must eliminate the original" is again a wrong notion about evolution. That is absolutely not how a new species forms. The original does not necessarily have to be extinct to give way to the new species. As long as the ecosystems where they live in continue to allow them to survive, both will survive.

P.S. I believe in God myself. But I also studied molecular biology as my major. I just do not believe in these false ideas of science perpetuated in many "Christian" circles. Anyone who holds on to these ideas is either ignorant or misinformed. Thankfully for me, God blessed me with an education and an inquisitive mind, so I now see the truth. Which is why I always like to correct these wrong notions you people have about the proper science of evolution.

P.P.S. The only reason I upvoted your comment is that it sparks a discussion. It made me think and want reply to it. :)))
