the number of people believing something has little correlation to its truth -- otherwise the world would have been flat for thousands of years.-You cant explain it fully.Micro evolution the adaptations and changes within a species is observable and a fact, but macro-evolution with is the addition of new traits or transition to a new species is merely a theory which has never been observed in science.Some aspects of evolution are true, but the main aspect of evolution (macro) is false.......
Here are some excellent recent books:
"The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution" By Richard Dawkins
"Why Evolution Is True" by Jerry Coyne
"Evolution: What the Fossils Say & Why it Matters" by Don Prothero
"Evolution: How We and All Living Things Came to Be" by Daniel Loxton
"Why Darwin Matters" by Michael Shermer (former fundamentalist Christian)
For a Christian perspective, try:

BTW, as you likely know, the number of people believing something has little correlation to its truth -- otherwise the world would have been flat for thousands of years.
You can't explain it fully.
Micro evolution the adaptations and changes within a species is observable and a fact, but macro-evolution with is the addition of new traits or transition to a new species is merely a theory which has never been observed in science.
Some aspects of evolution are true, but the main aspect of evolution (macro) is false. Hope that helps.
There are closed minds on both sides. There are those who say evolution proves that there is no God and there are those who say the Bible proves there is no evolution.
Try to look sceptically at both sides. Claims of proof from the Bible need to be examined as closely as claims from evolution.
If you read "The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution" By Richard Dawkins then also read Jonathan Sarfati's "The Greatest Hoax on Earth? Refuting Dawkins on evolution"
BTW Christians have always believed the earth was spherical. The president of the Flat Earth Society believes in evolution.
