Evolution HAS to happen for those that can't accept creation by God. It's that simple. A little science can keep a man from God, and a lot of science will bring him closer.
These are some of the questions i would ask that I hope will make any evolutionist question their beliefs:
Why have so many evolutionists turned creationists?
Evolution is given a large expanse of time to happen but is the earth really that old? (fossils do not tell us the age of the earth, fossils can be formed over 100 years and don't need a million to fossilized)
Where are all the transitional species?
There is a great amount of pride and fear in the hearts of evolutionists. If this earth was created, what does that mean? Am I wrong? Being wrong is what humans are best at especially in light of God's infinite wisdom and it seems me that this debate between creation and evolution is futile because it will forever be an argument until scientists learn to drop their theories and have some faith in an eternal, loving and redeeming God.

"Exactly where we would expect to find them - fossilized in the ground, and living on the surface of the earth."
...good answer. i agree with what is said in this article. (http://www.cryingvoice.com/Evolution/fossils_missing.html)
"Considering that there are almost 2 million (!) species on earth today and the time it would take for a new species to evolve is many millions of years, there should be billions of transitional forms, had evolution happened.
Duane T. Gish, The Origin of Mammals :
If this view of evolution is true, the fossil record should produce an enormous number of transitional forms. Natural history museums should be overflowing with undoubted intermediate forms. About 250,000 fossil species have been collected and classifiedApplying evolution theory and the laws of probability, most of these 250,000 species should represent transitional forms."
In light of this, I don't see much backing for the notion of transitional species. Fossilized in the ground? What if none are ever found. Living on the surface of the earth? What living thing is a transitional species, an elephant maybe, or a mouse, or even human beings. If modern-day transitional species are present would imply that all things will evolve further, including humans.

couldn't a hippopotamus be specifically a land/water mammal instead of a transitional species.. I guess I don't see how claiming something that inhabits both land and water to be an in-between species, instead of being recognized for what it is and its own purpose. If your logic is true then amphibians will eventually become land-dwelling lizards and lose the abliity for life in the water. does this happen through mutation?
