Evolution

So, first off, I believe God created the Earth and animals and man...  BUT, there are signs in science and other things that make me think about this matter more in detail.  My sister once was in a science class where they were teaching evolution as if it was fact and not just a very plausible scientific theory.  My sister got a little frustrated and finally said, "If God wanted it to look like evolution then that's why evolution can be explained!"

I believe that God follows the laws of science for the most part.  I can't explain miracles scientifically, so I believe those times are NOT explained by any science, but maybe there's some higher law of science that is still being followed that either I don't understand or the whole human race is unaware of.  So I believe that evolution is possible- not that it happened per se, just that it's possible.  The Bible is very clear on one thing though- from the dust, God made man- I'm not sure if that's figurative or literal, but it doesn't say anything like He took a rib from a monkey and made Adam.  But what about the rest of the animals?  Did He physically create each and every one?  Or just make it possible for all of the different types to be created?  Did He set things in motion?  Or did He take particles from creatures already made and slightly modify them, building his way up (line by line, precept upon precept so to speak..) so it looks like evolution, both in how long traces of certain animals can be found and in similarities?

I'm definitely open to comments on this one- so feel free to share your opinion.  The scripture that led to this post is in The Pearl of Great Price- it's talking about the creation, and the wording is slightly different than that in the Bible- just SLIGHTLY, I found it interesting and it got me thinking about evolution and the possibility of God using this theory in the creation of the Earth.  Abraham 4:20-21 "And the Gods said: Let us prepare the waters to bring forth abundantly the moving creatures that have life; and the fowl, that they may fly above the earth in the open expanse of heaven.  And the Gods prepared the waters that they might bring forth great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters were to bring forth abundantly after their kind; and every winged fowl after their kind.  And the Gods saw that they would be obeyed, and that their plan was good."  It says something very similar for the rest of the animals in verses 24-25 "And the Gods prepared the earth to bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the earth after their kind; and it was so, as they had said.  And the Gods organized the earth to bring forth the beasts after their kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind; and the Gods saw they would obey."  For man it doesn't say anything about preparing the waters that they might bring forth whales and fill the oceans, or preparing the earth, that it might bring forth living creatures, it says "the Gods went down to organize man in their own image, in the image of the Gods to form they him, male and female to form they them." (verse 27)

Anyways, share your thoughts, opinions and any other scriptures you may have come across.
