Pete, evolution IS a proven fact.
I am a member of a main line Christian church. I know of no one in the congregation of this church who believes that the earth is only 6,000 years old or that God sculpted Adam out of mud, extracted a rub, and made Eve.
The Universe is at least 13 billion years old, the earth is about 4.5 billion years old, and humans, as such, have been around for at least 100,000 years, gradually evolving into what we are today.
Your God is little more than a wand-waving wizard
A God who could create the Universe and all that's in it, including the earth and all that's on it, is a bit more powerful than that.
As to human beings, evolution is the way God did it.
