The Bible is meant to be the true word of God, so what’s written in it is supposedly absolute truth. How does evolution not conflict with your belief in what’s written in the Bible, like Noah’s ark and Adam and Eve? Do you just assume those are just like fun fables meant to just portray some lesson/meaning and aren’t “true stories”?
I’m hoping this doesn’t come off as a harsh question. I used to be Christian too but just don’t have faith in religion anymore. I’m just curious how you hold two sort of conflicting beliefs. Thanks!

A lot of that can be fixed with this simple verse.

2 Peter 3:8
New International Version
"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day"

Also, the Bible is meant to be taken as examples and stories about God and His character. Not necessarily as historical fact. If someone is using the Bible to argue, they've missed the point.
