Basically I accept evolution because evolution over 3.8 billion years makes much more sense that a 6 day creation, 6000 years ago. Then when studying the 2 concepts, the evolution model is based on scientific experimentation together with fossils to show such an idea, whereas creation is a belief based on ideas created by men who were ignorant to the basic laws of physics and wrote on ideas they could see and on mystical ideas to explain what he could,t see.

This source of your "facts" --- I'm just hazarding a guess here --- would it involve reading websites and pamphlets written by non-biologists in which they repeat what they've read in websites and pamphlets written by non-biologists?

That sounds about right.

Not so. Evolution is an idea based on the words of men.
Creation is a belief based on a supernatural book written through men inspired by God.God promises all over the Bible to preserve His word for all generations so that they will know and not be ignorant of what has happened.(The dead sea scrolls substantiate that)

Where is the proof that it is a supernatural book written through men inspired bu god?

You accept it most likely for the same reason so many do -it's standard fare, global belief system since God apparently died and is no longer relevant.
Man has become so much cleverer than his creator it is no wonder his active imagination has invented an entire new story to replace HIS story. It all happened before we were around but we nonetheless know better.If the evidence fits HIS story, it's worth checking out lest you be on the wrong plane going nowhere.

No I don't. I was "bombarded" with creationism, flood, Adam & Eve etc long before I was exposed to evolution, from age 5 thru grammar, middle & high school. There wasn't much evolution taught in schools back in the 50's.

It wasn't until I stareted to study the Bible myself that I came to the conclusions that evolution made more sense than creation.
