If rabbit fossils, world-wide, were found in a layer below trilobite fossils, then evolution would be falsified.
If Genesis 2 said a Day Six human being existed before Day Five birds (actually, it does), then believers would say one of the following:
1. Genesis 1 is not to be taken literally. It's just a litany used in temple worship.
2. Genesis 2 is a secondary creation that all happened on the sixth day so Adam could name the birds that already existed.
3. Genesis 2 is not intended to present the chronological sequence of events, it's a theological statement.
