Adaptation (I think I spelled it correctly) is a part of creation. That is the adaptive process by which plants and animals change due to conditions in their environment, NOT become new species.
Just about all scientific revelations support creationist ideals. The fact that there was an explosion of complex fossils, the inability to produce basic living compound in a test process, the absence of any "transitional" fossil records and the fact that there aren't new species "evolving" today. I could go on and on about how science "proves" the existence of an organizational process to our world, but there isn't the time.
While I admit that the creation experience of the Bible does require a good amount of faith, I don't see how evolution requires any less.
I would just like one proveable fact on the theory of evolution.

Evolution is constantly going on. It's just really slow...unless something pushes it...such as a natural disaster/cosmic event or an inordanate amount of radiation that causes a desirable mutation. In the latter case...you may see a hint of it in a lifetime...otherwise...it takes millions of years.
As far as an organizational process to the creation of our world...I don't disagree one bit. Far from it. There is actually an experiment in chemical evolution...really famous, but I can't think of the name. It involves creating either DNA or RNA from "nothing". It turned out to not work without a "spark" of electricity.
Another sort of pet-peeve is lumping religion and science into the same catergory...that just doesn't work. There has to be a seperation.

But that is like saying the "seperation of church and state"...
That phrase, as put into the Constitution, was never intended to keep the church out of the state, but rather the state out of the church.
The study of science isn't impossible without the influx of religion, rather my studies of science have helped to further my religious beliefs. I don't think the two have been seperated throughout our human history, just within the last century or so. Most of the most brilliant minds in science had strong religious backgrounds.
And your experiement, Miller-Urey, used very faulty set up to create "life" which actually they only produced simple amino-acids and could never produce proteins, which would be necessary for the creation of "life."
There is still no plausible account for the origins of life, at least not from an evolutionary context.
