I'm interested in hearing why persons here believe in the theory of evolution.
I'm not here to knock anyone's beliefs, since we all have reasons for believing things, but I would like to hear why persons here believe for example, that human beings evolved from a microscopic, bag-like sea creature, or some other microscopic organism.
What convinces you that ideas of this nature are more believable than what the Bible says?
For example, the Bible tells us in the book of Genesis Chapters 1, and 2, how humans as well as various living creatures came about.... which contradicts the ideas presented by those believing in the theories of evolution.
Obviously, both cannot be right, and while it is, many believe that there is evidence to support the ideas surrounding evolution, there are simply beliefs - ideas, or hypotheses, which are based on ideas (hypotheses), in support of the theory of evolution.
For example, the idea that hibernation evolved, has many hypotheses... none of which can be verified.
It is suggested that hibernation likely evolved simultaneously with endothermy, with the earliest suggested instance of hibernation being in Thrinaxodon, an ancestor of mammals that lived roughly 252 million years ago.
In order to conserve energy, the ancestors of birds and mammals would likely have experienced an early form of torpor or hibernation when they were not using their thermoregulatory abilities during the transition from ectothermy to endothermy. This is opposed to the previously dominant hypothesis that hibernation evolved after endothermy in response to the emergence of colder habitats.
There is evidence that hibernation evolved separately in marsupials and placental mammals, though it is not settled.
This is common with belief in evolution theories.
Although there are uncertainties, and no foundational base for the ideas, such that the cause and purpose of these arousals are still not clear; the question of why hibernators may return periodically to normal body temperatures has plagued researchers for decades, and while there is still no clear-cut explanation, there are multiple hypotheses on the topic, the individuals promoting belief in the theory of evolution assertively tell us, they have the answers to what happened, and why it happened.
Yet, how can that be true, when there are simply promoting ideas, for which there are many.
Are there any good reasons for believing the theories of evolution.
Why do you believe those theories?
Additionally, do you believe Genesis 2:19?

And out of the ground [adamah: Ground, land, earth, soil] the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and He brought them to the man to see what he would name each one. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.
