If your trying to find evidence in the Bible, your right.....of course, the Bible wasn't written to make evolutionist happy, it just supplies about 2 pages to creation. If God had thought it a more important subject, I'm sure He(she) would have told you more. But the Bible was written to tell people how to live a better life, here and how to fit in, in heaven.
If you know anything about Quantum Physics, you know that things change and you believe and look for them....that's where you're evidence will be found.....like the Bible said 5000 years ago, "believe and then you will see"
A person with a closed or filled mind, doesn't have room to learn anything......especially the truth.

Creation is fantasy and you can't prove a fantasy.

Even if evolution theory were not perfect it's still the best we've got.

The thought that a few thousand years ago fingers snapped and everything was here is utterly LAUGHABLE. So did God stick million year old fossils in the ground just to test our faith?

It reminds me of when primitive cultures have a creation story like some big bird flew over and dropped a magic seed from which we all sprouted. Imagine if that culture were the dominant force today and they were saying "God, he doesn't exist, the true believers know it was that big bird who dropped a seed. Now we must insist the big bird theory be taught in schools and both Evolution and God's Creationism are to be debunked". Nonesense.

It is only belief. No one has any real evidence.

You're right, there isn't a shred of positive evidence for creationism and creationists don't even try. All they do is try to poke holes in evolution as if that does anything whatsoever to prove creationism is at all viable.

You have to remember that the majority of "professional creationists" are just shysters trying to make a buck out of people's religious gullibility.

 There are no such things as ‘brute facts’; all facts are interpreted. When the Bible is eliminated in the argument, then the Christians’ presuppositions are gone, leaving them unable to effectively give an alternate interpretation of the facts. Their opponents then have the upper hand as they still have their presuppositionsthere are no such things as ‘brute facts’; all facts are interpreted. Once the Bible is eliminated in the argument, then the Christians’ presuppositions are gone, leaving them unable to effectively give an alternate interpretation of the facts." -Ken Ham

Atheists and theists have the same evidence, it is just how we interpret them as opposed to others. Therefore there are not "professional creationists"

How com everyone here is bickering? Try the flood. Its in every religion and there should be evidence in it. Something in religion just is very much different than evolution....

And hey. Jesus did exist. And Darwin proposed a few things such as if a complex system existed in a cell his theory would collapse. Pshh.

Darwin was brilliant nevertheless. But I know where I stand. I disagree with Darwin.

 I agree, the flood is in every religion I've heard of. Even the one's from the Native Americans... But I fail to see how the flood has anything to do with creationism. The flood is something that happened long after we were created so....

Two Darwinists spent hours standing at a flag pole trying to find the height of it. Along comes a creationist asks what they’re doing .The evolutionist reply we’re trying to find the height of the pole. The creationist pulls the pin at the bottom of the flag pole brings it to a horizontal position measures it then raise it back to vertical It’s 28 feet 6.5 inches he tell them then walk off .One evolutionist looks at the other, how stupid can these creationist be we want to know the height not the length.

There is endless evidence, what it is evidence for is for each person to decide.

Yes there is evidence. Open your eyes and look around you.

It is right in front of you.

I take issue only with the word 'No' in this title (though without it there wouldn't be much debate, so fair play).

I would agree that there is very little positive evidence for creationism and that most of the evidence that does exist is 'a priori' which means it is not factual evidence but logical argument which does not need facts (for example the ontological argument). However there are some examples of evidence based arguments for the existence of God the creator as opposed to anything else. Any example is the red-shift observation that the universe is expanding at an ever slowing rate. It is the logical (as science has noted) that the universe therefore came at one point from a single spot, and the question must arise of how something can exist from nothing. Whilst this is somewhat tenous, and not entirely evidence for earth based creationism, I think it is valid.

Further to my response, but unrelated to this topic, do please comment on my debut in new debates:

 The universe is expanding at an ever-increasing rate, not an ever-slowing one.

Devil's advocate: Creationism is true because Creation (the world) exists, and the Bible exists in it, and the Bible confirms Creationism. So we have the world and the Bible as two data points drawing a straight line back to Creationism.

Nobel Prize, please!!

 Yes, the world exists. But that is no proof GOD created it. The Bible was not written to be fact, it is just a collection of religous stories.

Just out of curiosity, without creation, where did evolution begin?
