In view of all the comment here trying to disprove evolution, I though I'd post the RCC stance on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_and_the_Catholic_Church Summary: "Early contributions to biology were made by Catholic scientists such as Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and the Augustinian friar Gregor Mendel. Since the publication of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species in 1859, the attitude of the Catholic Church on the theory of evolution has slowly been refined. For nearly a century, the papacy offered no authoritative pronouncement on Darwin's theories. In the 1950 encyclical Humani generis, Pope Pius XII confirmed that there is no intrinsic conflict between Christianity and the theory of evolution, provided that Christians believe that God created all things and that the individual soul is a direct creation by God and not the product of purely material forces.[1] Today, the Church supports theistic evolution(ism), also known as evolutionary creation,[2] although Catholics are free not to believe in any part of evolutionary theory. The Catholic Church holds no official position on the theory of creation or evolution, leaving the specifics of either theistic evolution or literal creationism to the individual within certain parameters established by the Church. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, any believer may accept either literal or special creation within the period of an actual six-day, twenty-four-hour period, or they may accept the belief that the earth evolved over time under the guidance of God. Catholicism holds that God initiated and continued the process of his evolutionary creation and that all humans, whether specially created or evolved, have and have always had specially created souls for each individual.[3][4] Catholic schools in the United States and other countries teach evolution as part of their science curriculum. They teach the fact that evolution occurs and the modern evolutionary synthesis, which is the scientific theory that explains how evolution proceeds." So this is a rationale for those for whom evolution is a problem when practising their religion, and who try therefore to discredit it.
I am Catholic, and I pretty much agree with the explanation of the modern evolutionary synthesis as the best for describing current observations. That said, most of those who are anti-evolution probably won't find the above as a convincing argument, and will probably think that it is an argument in favor of their views.
Evolution depends on millions of years of life and death supposedly producing us. How does that work if there was no death before the Fall? When God creates the New Earth, it won't take Him millions of years to do it.
