Do you believe in evolution or what your holy book says?

+1 to brontide's post - it is so easy for the two theories to co-exist.

The original Hebrew word for "day" can translate to mean "period of time" which doesn't necessarily mean 24 hours, but can mean a million years. So they fit together pretty nicely

Another idea - Higgs' particles, the ones that they're trying to isolate with the LHC - currently an unexplained force. I like to simplify that and sort of think of that as a "god force"

TD have you read Shaikh Nuh Ha Mim Keller's writing about evolution? He's a scholar of Islam and follows pretty traditional methods and his reading of scientific texts and the Arabic of the Quran is that evolution occured in all things except for humans which are a special and were placed on the Earth without any prior evolution.
