It has not been answered once. Give me a correct answer or just admit it is a blind faith, which it is.

If you want the truth, read the Bible.
Which one? Do you know ancient Aramaic or Greek? Which interpretation of the Bible? There are 1000s of more words in the English language than their were in the languages Bible passages were originally written in, and some words had 100s of meanings.
Regardless, Faith and Science are not incompatible. People try to make it an either or thing to drive wedges.
Evolution doesn't "disprove God" or make someone Atheist. It just exists. It is.

Because deep down we want to believe that all of humanity has the capacity to be open minded and learn new things as information, technology, and access becomes available.

Scientific method is observable and repeatable. If it happened a million years ago then it is neither. That is not science. Evolution is a blind faith.
There is no question here to answer.

So are you saying your ancestries did not evolve from fish?

No. You did the absolute opposite of it. You said why it was Subjectively better to be good.
everything is subjective. It’s bad to kill, unless you’re killing heathens! So says the pope! quote:
You have no objective basis to account for being good. Hitler believed self preservation for Germany meant extermination of six million Human beings. By your standards he was acting Good
Please do explain.

You have no basis to think there is anything wrong with children starving. You are using something you don’t even think is real(bad) comparing it against something you don’t think is real(good) to condemn something you don’t think is there(God). You are being absurd and incongruent.
Holy shite you are fricking stupid.
quote:
False. God is the source and standard of Goodness. Anything he allows to come to pass will ultimately be worked out for good. Not good as you understand it in your materialistic, secular humanistic mind. Human suffering is not objectively bad in all circumstances.
Oh. So childhood cancer and childhood starvation are good because god said so.

Ahh. The ad hominem. A quiet way of admitting you have no logical counter argument.
You, quite literally, have said absolutely nothing in your convoluted word salad.
Murder was “bad” before god. Stealing was “bad” before god.
Social norms made those things “bad”. Not some god.

I've observed you be an idiot regarding evolution and science over and over and over.
I guess if I can't observe a underwater volcano become Hawaii it's just blind faith that it did cause I couldn't observe it happen in my lifetime and I can't make it happen again.
I guess I just take it on blind faith that my cat destroyed my curtain while I was at work cause I didn't observe it happen and I can't make him repeat it.
Your logic is stupid.

For me, it was originally about trying to relay complex scientific information to laypeople, as so much of that knowledge was/is publicly funded but is now hidden behind paywalled databases. I dislike that practice immensely and have found that there is a big space for someone to try to translate that scientific information for the population at large. I found out shortly afterward that I'm not the person to do it, but thankfully there are now numerous YT that do a much better job than I ever could. Now I am just killing a bit of time.

In a way it does try to disprove God. I am not saying everyone who believes in evolution is an atheist but his comments clearly state he is one.

What question would you like answered? The post I quoted had no question in it.

An aquatic ancestor of primates isn't by definition a fish. One of the best pieces of evidence that humans evolved from an aquatic ancestor is the RAAS system, but I'm definitely seeing there is little use actually explaining things with you. It's sad that you are so close-minded.

You’re proving my point. Your comprehension and/or self-awareness is either clouded or non-existent
You are proving the point that reading a couple essays from a hundred years ago makes you arrogant but not any smarter.

it doesn't try to do anything. It is a scientific Theory that explains life on Earth. It just is.
Evolution is a change in allele frequencies over time. That is it.
What people "do with the Theory" is mutually exclusive of the Theory itself.
