The science is extremely clear that we did evolve from another species. Where are you getting this information to the contrary? Do you have sources? Peer reviewed scientific papers, I would hope.
Again, what is the alternative? We were created fully formed?
Evolution requires no direction either, so that's incompatible.
I'll leave you alone after this. I appreciate you trying, but I have no idea what you think happened.
When I said "at minimum I think the process was directed", I meant evolution.
When God said "let the earth bring forth..." that could very well be some evolutionary process. I believe if that happened, it was directed because I believe there was purpose and end result in mind. To my knowledge this is not incompatible with any generally accepted principle of evolutionary biology.
I don't feel I have to figure out what happened. I only need to make sure my view is internally consistent and in accordance with scientific facts.
