What facts do you require?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

That is a healthy sign if a system can correct itself given new information. Too bad religion can't work like that, huh?
It does, but many still complain.

Excellent, got your red marker handy? Tell me which parts of the biblical narrative didn't happen?

Unlike evolutionist and atheist, I don't just remove the data that doesn't fit my model, I change the model.

Sounds great, but that doesn't tell me what changes you've made to the model, what corrections based upon new information exist - as claimed?

I would be very interested to hear what our resident Christians' actual models are.
What happened, and how is evolution involved, if at all?
Anyone prepared to share?

All of them.... even those that cause conflict with the evolutionary model.

You've read the thread title...right? At least make this sporty. There are no facts that cause conflicts with our model..that's why it's our model. If there were..just one single fact - it wouldn't be our model. One pleistocene plesiosaur...a single jurassic puppy...and poof.....your dreams will have become reality.
