I grew up in a scientific world, and struggled with faith.

An ex-lover of mine created an image of two "Christian" fishes kissing one another (one fish had legs), with the caption, "Creation Evolves. Love One Another". I thought that brought some light to the discussion.

BUT Creation did NOT evolve.... It was SPOKEN into being....

I think the idea was that maybe Creation does evolve, post-creation. There is some evidence to support that, right? Even on a personal level, we evolve as we understand more about the world around us, we learn new skills and improve old ones. We come up with new technologies.

Or is everything we see, including the things we make with our own hands, God's creation? If that's the argument, I guess I don't have any more to to contribute.

You might be talking about "adaptation" as humans do adapt to their environment (such as heat in Africa, or cold in Russia or Alaska) but that's not evolution as a fish growing legs and walking out of the ocean and becoming a cow.

Some are extinct, much like in our lifetime animals have become extinct, but others such as 20 ft. crocs, rhinos, iguanas, meat eating monitor lizards, etc. remain with us
