Here are the choices as I see them.
You can accept a scientific theory (evolution) that has been scrutinized and tested for more than 150 years now and is supported by the irrefutable fact that genetic change takes place within organisms over generations. Or, you can opt to accept a story from a 3,000-year-old book which features a rib-clone, a talking serpent, a worldwide flood for which no evidence exists whatsoever, an ark that is an engineering impossibility, and a world that was created in six days (but billions upon billions of stars almost as an afterthought).
I'll throw my lot in with science, thanks.
