The bible is NOT the only source of truth. Anyone peddling that is surely mistaken.
I've never stated anything about "kind". My point is that creationists look at the same evidence as evolutionists and draw different conclusions.
What biological phenomena has evolutionary theory "anticipated", "predicted" or "explained"?
My basic point is that, unless you are a scientific type, expert in the scientific arena or an actual scientist in the areas that directly deal with evolutionary theory, you would have to take these individuals at their word, just like going to a foreign country and having to trust that what a translator is telling you is actually what's being said.
You understand, that you cannot know everything in life, a lot you must trust the sources, especially if you do not have expertise lending to or directly in the area of knowledge presented to you.
So for the average Joe, (a majority of the population), who is not well versed in evolutionary, creationist or complex scientific findings and study, sees two sides to a great big arguement and consciously or unconsciously must put his faith in one or the other. You can't believe both, because they are mutually exclusive. Either the earth is old or it is young, either human beings were made in the image of God or came from a single cell organism.
