Could it be that abiogenesis and evolution are both fact and are part of God's design?
I understand how and why people insist on the young age of the Earth (using lineage in Abrahamic religious text). But maybe you just read it a bit wrong? Maybe, it is incomplete information? A thousand years is as a day to God, no? Why not a billion years?
God created man from dust, no? Stardust, it seems. Literal dust. From stars exploding.
Perhaps God chose two "almost ready" early hominids to be the first humans, Adam and Eve. He could have just created other humans as He liked, for them to breed with, I imagine. Or perhaps Adam and Eve were just Moses's stunted interpretation of being shown Y-chromosome Adam and Mitochondrial Eve by God in a vision. Perhaps God showed him a lot of truth, but he could not recall every detail or absorb and understand it all.
I could continue, but that's what threads are for
I don't see the conflict. Surely every monotheist thinks God is capable of both abiogenesis and evolution. No?
