Creation AND Evolution?

Sure means yes the last time I checked. Did you miss that?

You seem to be waffling. Which particular evidence are you referring to?

There is a vast body of evidence in favour of the theory of evolution. Some of it is summarized here:

Microevolution yes. There is no evidence of macroevolution due to mutations that I am aware of.

For microevolution yes. I am particularly asking for evidence of macroevolution due to natural selection.

Ok I could have clarified the question and asked for an example of beneficial mutations in a single cell that demonstrated macroevolution. Microevolution is perfectly compatible with the creation account. Do you believe the biblical account of creation?

Again, there is a huge body of evidence. If you want a more specific answer than a general text on evolution, you need to ask a more specific question.

Do you believe lifeforms even simpler than single-celled organisms evolved into a fully functional human due to mutations that were not working towards anything without any intelligent direction? Yes or no?

The theory of evolution does not involve any "intelligent direction" and mutations do not "work towards" anything. Instead, the process is directed by natural selection.

If you are not comfortable discussing your personal beliefs on this matter just say so.

When you look at models that project what we see today and apply them to what might have occurred millions of years ago, that is faith nothing more.

And I think you require way more faith to believe life created itself than you need to believe that God did it.
