The problem is not evolution, but the person Darwin.

I had - for example - the idea, that certain structures in the Atacama 
desert are actually remains of people, that have lived there, while the 
desert was still a sea.

This area dried out about 15 million years ago. So there should have 
been beings, that have been able to build cities that long ago.

But Darwin assumed an age of the Earth of about 300,000 years, hence is 
off by four orders of magnitude.

This is an extreme discrepancy, so his theories should be treated with care.

Other believe systems assume the creation of men exactly 6000 years ago 
(plus a few days), because they found this number in the bible.

Possibly people are way older than this and lived on this planet for 
several hundred million years (says e.g. a guy named Ed Conrad).

Now: who's right?
