Well, there is much evidence to support macro-evolution (lungfish, for example). But maybe God "planted" that evidence on the scene to trick the more intelluctual of humans to not believe in Him. Smart, because having intellectuals in heaven would just take away from the whole experience. Besides, God doesn't want to be losing debates to these intellectuals in heaven on whether or not He exists... that's where black holes come from.

Well, in many ways, this thread
is about whether religion is right or wrong, despite what you say. The idea of creationism is based
purely on religion... so if religion is bunk, then it follows that creationism is bunk. If you pose a question whose two possible answers are dependent on contrasting beliefs (religion vs. science), you should expect the debaters to argue the merits of those beliefs.
