Your other point that Technology doesn't reproduce therefore people won't come to the same conclusion as Biological evolutionary theory is also mute
I'm sick of Atheist and any anti-Religious, or anti-God movement who revolve all their arguments around evolution.

Your argument is that if everything is created then GOD should be created. Right?
If GOD is created, then there is there is the other GOD.
That wouldn't be true if we believe in one eternal GOD, ofcurse most Atheist forget about that point.
Your other point that Technology doesn't reproduce therefore people won't come to the same conclusion as Biological evolutionary theory is also mute, because if you read the history of the Universe you will come across something called "the Evolution of the Universe".
I'm assuming you mean moot, not mute. If Technology could perpetuate itself, if the laws of nature allowed for such things to form without the intervention of an intelligent agent, than you would have a point. But you don't have one here.
We have no examples of computers occurring naturally.
The Universe that "evolved" did so naturally, stars, galaxies and planets coalesced according to natural processes. None of them require the action of any thinking being and none of them can reproduce in the biological sense of the word. A star, for instance, does not give birth to other stars or pass on any of its characteristics, usually they explode into a super-nova.
This only works when you claim infallibility and special knowledge of god - it only works by arbitrarily exmepting him although you have no good reason to do so except dogmatic ones.

The Koran, as the Bible, as the Talmud is a book written by humans for humans. Since it is a book, by your own logic, it was created by a creator, a human. How can you derive a meta-border about the nature of God from a book written by men?
As I said - this only works when you arbitrarily (i.e., with no good reason except a general wish for coherence of your fairytale) prescribe the power of defintiion to whatever group pleases you. Exactly what you've just done. Thanks for proving my point.

Do you agree that in order for something to evolve, that thing has to be able to reproduce? This isn't exactly a hard concept to grasp.
I guess you never read about how the Universe evolved.
Evolution isn't isolated to biological being only, it also exists in Universal structures, and how the Universe evolved in to what it is today.
the whole matter of the universe was once concentrated in an extremely dense and hot (~10 12K) fireball. Then about 20 billion years ago a vast explosion (big bang) occurred. The matter was broken into pieces, which were thrown out with high speed in all directions forming stars and galaxies;

What I wonder is how it could be possible that you Djin do not see it "pop in for tea" every day of your life?
THE UNIVERSE HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH EVOLUTION. Now what part of that do you not understand?
Think about it for couple of seconds.
If we in the future program a computer which will reproduce and transfer its code to its offspring, would we finally be on the same page?
Yeah, computers also have natural processes (defined by codes)
And in regards to how a star explodes into a super-nove. zzzz. It still evolves..

yeah except a car is not a computer....
Cars also have computers in them these days, and they are all called technology. Even a car..
The last thing on this planet religious people need is proof of a creator my friend especially their own creator.

Exactly, when considering everything around us is evidence of GOD.

Are you testing me, or did you just make a quick response lol..
Read your statement again and tell me if you stand by it the second time.
And the point I was making is simple, that the Universe did evolve. That response was to those who claimed you can't evolve without reproducing.
Everything evolves, including our thoughts, you don't need to reproduce in
order to evolve, that is why I gave the example of technology etc.
Even then there will be evidence that these androids did not evolve but were originally built, since there will be no transitional fossils or genetic evidence of their relation to other robotic life.
