I know a lot of doctors and scientists who would say something like "simple little man."

Life may seem complex to you, but those with scientific backgrounds and qualifications don't think so. Doctors know a great deal about how our bodies work.

Just because you can't comprehend the complexity of life doesn't mean that others can't.

And no, the theory does not say we formed from rocks. It says life formed from a combination of a couple amino acids. I think you need to read "Origin of Species" by Charles Darwin. That might help you gain a better understanding.

Sorry if I came across harsh in this post. I can understand people choosing to believe in certain religions or other faith based beliefs. But I can't possibly understand anyone who dismisses the theory of evolution. The evidence is OVERWHELMING. Evolution is not a belief, it's a WIDELY accepted scientific theory based on a great deal of actual research as opposed to the Bible, which is based on the writings of several people who lived 2000 years ago.
