about this song...
From "about this song" after "Are We Accidents":
We believe all life and all the life creates is by the grace of God in his timing and will, nothing is new under the sun. All that man accomplishes through science, medicine, invention is taken from the earth and it's creations. We believe we were created, and that these truths are self evident. Those who claim wisdom through human means are foolish.
So, Destinylab, are we to trust science, or not?
You first claim science is born of God and creation, then claim that "wisdom through human means" is foolish - I would say science and the scientific method are quite "human means". Hopefully you realize that science and medicine have proceeded based on empirical evidence, and that simply by using faith these fields of study would still be stuck in the Dark Ages. Evolution theory is born of the same methods that have given us the insight into the rest of science/medicine/invention - so why is evolution different?
It seems to me it is you who is ignoring the beauty of God's creation. All evidence within God's creation points to an old earth and the theory of evolution.
Unless you think God's creation is a lie...

self-evident
Creation is self evident. If you do not agree then you are lying to yourself. You are without excuse.
It seems to me you are claiming to know God's intent and methods by claiming that evolution cannot be part of His creation. If that is so, then you are without excuse.
There were times when people "knew" that demons caused disease, the Earth was flat, and the sun revolved around the Earth. These things were self-evident, the Bible was cited as proof of this self-evidence, and those who suggest otherwise based on natural evidence were labeled heretics and sometimes tortured and executed.
Now we know that this knowledge that was so "self-evident" a few hundred years ago is incorrect.
Would you argue otherwise?
If you examine the reality of God's creation you'll find the evidence for evolution therein - unless you do not trust that evidence, for perhaps you believe God to be deceitful through His creation.
