When you look at bacteria and see the evolution of bacteria, you also look at the embryo succession of HUMAN life,you SEE that GOD has use this as HIS way to bring human life to where it is at this point.
You and I do NOT know the will of GOD But we can be assured that HE knows better than your THEORIES. God does not fit within your scope but is much broader than you think He is. BESIDE THIS IS NOT AN ARTICLE OF FAITH! GET THAT THROUGH YOUR SKULL!

The Theory of Evolution will suffice in itself and does not need an imaginary, bloodthirsty, ignorant, vain and jealous tyrant appended to it.
Julian,
You forgot petty, arrogant, childish, murderous, and a few others that Prof. Dawkins covered in TGD. ;)

JERRY, JERRY, JERRY!
"GET THAT THROUGH YOUR SKULL!"
huh skull?
SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE, BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!
oh guess that doesn't apply here. But what does apply here is the fact that ANYTHING to do with God is in fact an article of faith. Get that up yer skull.
And how, exactly, are we supposed to draw the conclusion that God is behind this? What, exactly, are the required properties for something divinely created? (Remember, Occam's Razor implies that you can't claim a divine origin without a specific reason to do so.)
This articulate young man presents a well-thought-out statement.
When engaging in debate on this most sensitive subject, we would do well to remember this writers gentle spirit in the face of controversy.
So ... you admit that evolution exists, and you say that God used evolution as His way to bring human life into the world ...
... and then you say that "He knows better than your THEORIES."
Huh.
"you also look at the embryo succession of HUMAN life,you SEE that GOD has use this as HIS way to bring human life to where it is at this point."
So on the one hand we have creationists pointing to Haeckel's diagrams in evo-devo text books and screaming "See? They are teaching things they know to be wrong!" (answer: yes, it's called learning from your mistakes). Then on the other hand we have creationists pointing to Haeckel's diagrams and screaming "See? That shows how God did it!"
Recapitulation theory, in the form Haeckel imagined it, is wrong - as the text in any recent evo-devo book with his diagram in should explain. It was a cute idea, but it only sort of works, a bit, in some cases.
You see, Snake, science corrects its mistakes as it goes along. It doesn't carve them in stone, declare them infallible and go around whining about how people ought to teach the controversy about how many legs an insect has.
"You and I do NOT know the will of GOD But we can be assured that HE knows better than your THEORIES."
- So this is an article of faith then.
- Whoops, my mistake.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
