I was watching, (Sort of watching, I was doing housework and mostly listening to it, occasionally) a discovery channel science special the other day, can't remember what it was on specifically, I think it was called, How the Earth was Made....anyway, I just caught the ending part of it saying that our days were much longer when the earth was first created...I didn't hear exactly WHY....? But I did get a little chill for a nano=second that made me smile as well, thinking, Lord forgive me for doubting your Creation timeline and being such a doubting Thomas....
I believe in both, to answer the original post...nothing in the Bible rules out the evolution of a species or the Earth....the whole creation story was an evolution.
SO, God made man in 'his' image but just really really slowly from apes... but he made other things right the first time?
I think the dinosaurs would be in the bible if it was truthful. And they would be if the authors had known about their existence...
I don't have any trouble imagining that all of evolution, including dinosaurs, etc, until humans appeared is what the first 5 1/2 "days" of creation encompass. It doesn't go into any detail about how God created anything, it just says He did.
