Theists: What is your stance on evolution?

[arewethereyet]

I believe it's real; all creatures did evolve from something, house cats evolved from 'Felis silvestris lybica' after domestication for example.

Islam which I practice did mention that the creation of Adam involved a "fashioning" stage:

https://quran.com/15:29?font=v1&translations=131%2C20

Sura 15: verse 28˹: Remember, O  Prophet˺ when your Lord said to the angels, “I am going to create a human being from sounding clay moulded from black mud.1

Sura 15: verse 28˹ : So when I have fashioned him and had a spirit of My Own ˹creation˺ breathed into him, fall down in prostration to him.”

I believe that "fashioning Adam" is evolution.

So, I believe in it. It's common sense.

Umm, you do know you're on an atheist forum?  Quoting the Quran is not usually accepted as reasoned argument.

Neither the Torah (from which a lot of the Quran was lifted) nor the Quran are history  or science books.  They are religious texts, written by men for men .  

This atheist rejects the concept of  revelation or dictation from a deity.  Because I don't believe in god(s), I'm also unable to believe he inspired or dictated anything. What with probably not existing. 

 Fashioning Adam is evolution? Hardly.  In that context, fashioning is usually taken to mean 'create' as far as I'm aware.. Of course, it's fine for you to find your own interpretations. As long as you're aware  I for one will call you out. Especially when you make a claim as fatuous as fashioning Adam means evolution.
