For those who are well-read in Christian theology, or consider themselves believers of God, how do you interpret evolution? I think most people believe in evolution, but at what point did God consider humans, human? at the point we gained consciousness? can we judge apes and ape-men for sinning?
what about in the future? are we just a stepping stone for advanced beings? will they be judged by God differently?

How I learned it was that God's time is different from ours so 7 days is just representative. That being said, sin has existed prior to man it's just man who has had to grapple with it due to original sin. Future beings will regularly be in sin. It's a part of being in a material world and our sensual attachment to it

When god created reality he pushed it so that eventually humans would spring forth.

They did exist, you can evolve from monkeys and still have an Adam and eve, in fact we all share one about 175k years ago.

Funny but trash, God gave a great enough hint in that all regions developed a religion. God supersedes religion. Being anti religion is just horrid. I'd almost accept satanism over atheism if satanism wasn't just atheism plus extra steps.
God is truth and every advancement in anything is the work of God and a whisper or expression of him

> Then the Lord God formed the man out of the dust from the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being (Genesis 2:4)

There's a common fallacy by fellow christians that we as humans are somehow supernatural creatures, somehow separated to the natural world. The term of "dust from the ground" refers to the fact that our physical self is made and of this universe. We are made of the same cosmic "dust" that compromises the birds, the mountains, and the stars. Evolution shows how we are physically tied to the motion and progress of the universe and organic life.

Yet the life that is referred above, is not the life defined by a beating heart, nor the biological one of consumption and reproduction. The life He breathed into us, is the eternal life, our soul, our spirit. This is what so starkly separates us from the other animals and the "dust of the ground."

The Holy Spirit is contained within psilocybin mushrooms, which God sent down from his house in space when he decided it was time for monkeys to have consciousness. Monkeys ate the mushrooms and now we are smart. It says it all right there in the book. The apple in the garden of Eden was actually a mushroom.

God created animals first, then later created man to steward over them. So I don't see how that's inconsistent with evolution, really.
