What's the Deal with Evolution?

I hope you cook them first.
So you propose and entirely new kingdom composed only of humans and separate from animals, plants, fungi, etc.
Can you provide the objective evidence that constitutes this separation so that I can see it too?
Can you explain how you are lumping all these different concepts together and the evidence you are using to do that? It sounds like you have at least three concepts intermingled here and claiming they all self started out of nothing with no rules. I am fascinated. Enlighten me.
So no true Christian considers the story to be allegory? None of that stuff about accepting Christ as their savior counts for anything otherwise?
Can you show us all where the theory of evolution is not subjected to repeatable testing and is not "real science". You say it with authority, so it should be easy peasy cake for you to show us and explain it all away.
Animals have no rights according to you. We can beat a dog at our leisure because it is a chunk of meat without feeling.
I wonder how cultures with more compassion than you show were able to come to their views while existing prior to Darwin?
Again, cooked I hope, but after reading your thoughts on animals, perhaps not even dead when consumed.
There is no end to the subjects in which you have expertise. Can you expand on this so that we can all conclude as you do?
What does that mean?
Wouldn't there be the relationship of being Created by God? Do you think God wants us to feel free to torture the squirrels wantonly if we choose because they are not one of us?
"You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain."
-Deuteronomy 25:4
"If a bird’s nest happens to be before you along the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, with the mother sitting on the young or on the eggs, you shall not take the mother with the young;"
-Deut 22:6
"But you must not slaughter an ox or a sheep on the same day as its young."
-Leviticus 22:28
Seems to care about animals.
I agree. The concept of animal rights did not arise from the theory of evolution, but has existed in some form in many cultures including those that form the basis of Christianity. Conflating the two is just a political ploy to comingle two concepts that some find distasteful.

More like you can't explain why the scientific exist laws that result in the possibility of creating such a machine

No, homo sapiens don't have all the same DNA as apes.

Such a kingdom has always been in existence. It's not new. We have long ruled over the animal kinds.

Not only is this obviously wrong (we van explain lots of things), but since "goddidit" doesn't explain anything, it just move the problem, that leaves you in exactly the same situation as atheists.

Who said anything about no rules?
One follows from the other. Science cannot explain why matter exists, except it matter seems to come from energy. God provides the energy.
And then the life energy, also from himself.

But it does explain everything that's important. A being with no limits who cares about each individual person changes the worldview dramatically from: " I'm just another animal."
