Evolution is a fact, but it is not what some people think.
Evolution poses no more threat to Creation beliefs or theism, than the Geometric fact that a square has 4 equal sides and angles.
If the visible fact of evolution threatens a person's religious beliefs, it may be time to examine those beliefs.
Next some one is going to Say Brussels sprouts don't exist, because the parent plant of all our Brussels Sprouts was a cabbage plant in Brussels, Belgium,, whose off spring decided not to be cabbage any more.

The bible does not show all living creatures share a common ancestor. Each animal and each human was created by God.
