Creationist believe God created us.
Evolutionist believe we and all the universe came from nothing.
This is not logical. To come from nothing requires a supernatural event.

According to evolution theory, there is no wrong or right. No morals, no good or bad. It is all about procreating my genes to the future - survival of the fittest and if someone gets in my way, there is nothing wrong with taking them out or their family or city or country either. As long as you get to procreate to the future, it's all ok.
Of course, for someone who knows God exist and has the Bible, these things are obviously wrong.
The fact that you know right from wrong is because God placed that within you. There is absolutely no need for such concepts in an evolutionary viewpoint. Morals are an evolutionary hinderance.
You are a man arguing against the existence of air while breathing it in your lungs. God being the air of course in this analogy.
The reason we have these terrible things as you stated is free will and love of sin when Adam and Eve distrusted God and ate the forbidden fruit. It was so terrible that Jesus had to die to wash away those sins so we can be saved.
The penalty of sin is death and someone has to die for your sins. You can either accept the free gift given to you by Jesus standing in your place or you will have to pay it yourself.
Jesus is the only one that can save your life or mine.

And the soul can die. This is the same lie Satan told Eve in the garden, that she would not surely die.
Matthew 10:28 "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell."

Animals do not have human souls, they were not created in the image of God and God gave man dominion over the entire earth and all within it. Animals are below man in the order of creation.
Man is not an animal. Only evolution where death is the hero and we are all rearranged pond scum does your ideas fit. How terrible it must be for you to see people like this.
You are right, there is no logic in us going to heaven since we all deserve death but God loves us that much that He even was humiliated and died so we could live forever with Him... if we choose to.

And you are right, it doesn't make any sense from an evolutionary standpoint.. we are not animals fighting each other to get ahead. But the way the world is, is not how it always was. It was Utopia! And it will be again but the only way to get there is to accept Jesus Christ's sacrifice (a free gift) and follow his commandments as given in Exodus 20.

Genesis 3: 4-5 "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."
Can you not see the truth? Is it not obvious? If the devil is not real.... why DOES THE WORLD BELIEVE EXACTLY THE SAME OLD LIE SATAN TOLD EVE and somehow think it's a new thought? This is basically what almost everyone on this earth believes. That the soul is immortal. It is not.

We can not even imagine what heaven has in store for us. When Jesus became human, he did so to raise us up to God. We will never be God of course, but we will be closer to Him than any other beings in the entire universe.
Here is what Ellen White had to say about heaven to give you some idea...
"There every power will be developed, every capability increased. The grandest enterprises will be carried forward, the loftiest aspirations will be reached, the highest ambitions realised. And still there will arise new heights to surmount, new wonders to admire, new truths to comprehend, fresh objects to call forth the powers of body and mind and soul.
All the treasures of the universe will be open to the study of God's children. With unutterable delight we shall enter into the joy and the wisdom of unfallen beings. We shall share the treasures gained through ages upon ages spent in contemplation of God's handiwork. And the years of eternity, as they roll, will continue to bring more glorious revelations. "Exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think" (Ephesians 3:20) will be, forever and forever, the impartation of the gifts of God."
A much better view of life (and it's 100% true) than what evolution has in store for humanity with it's non-ending cycle of dog eat dog and death.
