Just started Genesis last night and I'm like "Oh man I can't believe I waited until I was almost 30 to start this!" It basically confirms evolution-in my point of view. When Eve and Adam have the forbidden fruit of knowledge [3:16] To the woman he (God) said, "I will greatly increase your pangs in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you." They also became ashamed of being naked.
Before that, childbirth was not painful and they were not ashamed of being naked because they were like animals. Baby's heads could fit better in the birthing canal. After they changed, women now had to rely on their husbands for food, etc. so now they become ruled over by their husbands. In the animal world females and males are closer matched physically and females don't rely on the males of their species for survival.
Sorry for the rant, I had to share it! Read through it most of it last night and I'm a little over halfway through. Going to finish it tonight!
Genesis has always been one of my favorite books! There is so much knowledge and wisdom! As a geologist, I find the account of the creation of life, and the Earth itself, agrees with the evidence seen today. What I find particularly intriguing is that there is a valley associated with the present Hudson River, that extends out beyond the continental shelf, and on down to the deepest ocean depths thousands of feet below present sea level. There is absolutely no way a valley like that could be formed below the ocean surface (the pitiful attempt to explain submarine canyons of this magnitude as being formed by density currents is laughable!); it is clear evidence that there once were essentially no oceans, which agrees with the Genesis account of the water of the Earth being in the atmosphere, and below ground, only to be during the great flood.

Just read and keep your public education out of it and you'll learn a lot more.
