The Bible clearly states that God created man from dust in Genesis. Evolutionary history tells us that humans (Homo sapiens) share a common ancestor with the chimpanzees, according to the evolutionary phylogenetic tree.
Actually, the Bible isn't necessarily incompatible with evolution. The Bible says that before the "6 days of creation" the earth was null and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep. Why coudn't the earth have been there for billions of years in human time before that? The answer is that there is no reason for why it coudn't be. I don't know if God literally created the earth in 6 days or not; even if he did that does not make the Bible incompatible with evolution. Its even possible that apes existed and than God decided to set some apart and give them souls and all of the people desecended of those two are what we call humans.
I have no way of knowing if any of these "speculations" are true or not; the point is God doesn't care about the creation vs evolution debate because it does not do anything to accomplish his work on earth. Does having a debate with an evolutionist about how you think you have scientific evidence that it is false help win that persons soul to Christ? And it is likely that the evolutionist will have just as much evidence and probably more valid and sound evidence at that to counter the argument.
There is nothing in the Bible that says the earth is 10,000 years old; it is simply that if you count the generations down from Adam and Eve until now its around that much time, but the earth existed before Adam and eve did so that doesn't really prove the age of the earth. I don't know the age of the earth and neither does anyone else, but it is very possible that it is billions of years old and because that is what science seems to tell us I suggest that it is true.
Picking out little details like whether or not the 6 days is literal is to miss the whole point of God's word.
