hi drifter, i am on lunch break so cant really reply much, but my personal thoughts on evolution is that yes, it can happen but within its own species only.
So a human cannot come from a primate but his looks, size, bearing etc can evolve from when he first appeared long ago.... as a human in the first place.
Bad things and good things happen to all alike because again to me , if all the good things happen only to christians and bad things to non christians , then people will want to become christians for the wrong reasons ie only to get what God can give . God doesnt want people to come to Him in this way.
It may sound illogical and silly to many people but thats what i believe and although in a way i consider you my freind but i still have to share it this way although i know you will scold me pretty soon.

1) how can you believe a storybook full of contradicting a book full of magical story ....virgin birth , talking snake , walking on water ...? if a person thought god were real, they would still worry about the consequences of disobeying god. a believer cannot decide to stop believing in god unless they first stop thinking of god as real or suspect that god is not real.
2) evolution is just a process by which change occurs in nature. the process of evolution was deduced by interpretation of evidence that holds up to empirical scrutiny. evolution is like many other natural processes which are deduced by interpretation of evidence. a couple of other processes we have deduced from evidence found in the natural world are erosion and eutrophication.
believe me god did not immensely in your day to day life .....if not why bad things can happen to anyone including all christians and non- believer ? remember bad things and good things can happen to anyone with religion or without .
