That's what you believe, that is a part of your faith but remember that there are other religions who believe in the one 'God' as part of their faith too.

While you may dismiss science as nonsense, you should also recognize that science and religion are different disciplines, and instruction of science should not be convoluted by religious instruction, just as instruction of religion should not be convoluted by scientific instruction.
I do not dismiss science as nonsense - I dismiss evolution as nonsense. Evolution cannot be supported in any scientific manner. It cannot be observed, falsified, or explained logically. It does not meet the criteria for a scientific theory. Furthermore - its proponents refuse to accept any challenges to its validity - a sure sign that there is a problem with the theory - a real scientist is always open to the possibility that they may be wrong.

God has given us the intelligence to uncover the secrets of science and explain them using its language - mathematics - both of which were instituted by Him.

Of course they do - did I ever say anything that contradicted this statement?

This is where the theory of evolution belongs.

Evolution can be observed, has been observed. And it doesn't need to be explained, because science isn't assertions that need to be explained. Science tries to explain the world around us, science theories explain observable phenomena. Evolution simply explains why species change over time. Its proponents eagerly accept challenges to its validity. That's why the theory has changed over time. To better explain the world around us.
